I have a 4-family 13R (07ed) building with unfinished basements.  Please
confirm if my logic is on tract for sprinklering these areas.
For most AHJ's here, basements are not considered part of the dwelling
unit so they fall under section 6.8.2 - outside dwelling unit.
Only the design discharge and design area criteria from 13 apply so I
can sprinkler this area as LH with 225sf spacing
no matter the type of construction.  IE: I don't have to reduce the head
spacing to 130sf because of the TJI's 16" O.C.
Sound ok?
Thanks,
