Are you sure that the apartments will be 13D (not R)? 13R/D allows for the exclusion of combustible concealed spaces and attic areas. If you check on the AFSA website, you can review the 13R code for the exact section. 13R is a pretty short document.

I have an old school building with an attic area that is not accessible and a 6' crawl space with no equipment. Building is all wood. They are redoing the building into apartments (13D). For some reason I remember someone telling me or reading that in a 13R or 13D system if the areas mentioned were net being used or accessed then they did not need to be sprinkled. Is this something I dreamed up?
