SSU/SSP Heads are not limited by slope, the only penalty is the 30%
increased design area for area density designs.

Subject: RE: soffits along walls with sloped ceilings

I would say yes as long as you take the "b" dimension from the actual head
location, not where the ceiling intersects the soffit.

Subject: soffits along walls with sloped ceilings

An owner had added soffits along the wall/ceiling similar to figure
8.6.5.1.2 (b) (NFPA 13 - 2002), except the roof is sloped greater than 2:12.
Does this still apply?
