I agree- light haz- probly obst. Const. at the deck (if the beams are not
too far apart), ignore the clouds 1st, sprinkler the floor spaced to the
walls-- then drop pend heads in the clouds spaced to the edge of the clouds

Subject: RE: Spklr in non comb space

I am not sure this qualifies as a combustible concealed space (combustible
enclosure being key words) as much as a ceiling mounted obstruction.  Your
situation leads me more along the lines of the obstruction rules
(8.6.5.3-2007).

8.15.1.6 also specifically calls out wood truss/joist/double wood
joist..also a disqualifier for your described situation.

Subject: Spklr in non comb space

I am working on a classroom building with cloud ceilings in each of
the classrooms. Construction is concrete on steel beams. Sprinklers
are to be installed bothabove and below the cloud. The space between
the ceiling and the deck is 2'-6". 8.15.1.6 calls for concealed space
sprinklers in combustible concealed spaces of 3'-0" of less. Am I
correct in assuming that I can use regular upright sprinklers in this
situation since the space in not combustible?
