I recall this has been discussed, but not recently.
Is there guidance anywhere as to how much gap needs to be between obstructions (each individual obstruction being no more than 48" wide) so that sprinklers are not needed beneath them? More specifically, I have a project where the architect would like to install banners beneath the ceiling and does not want sprinklers beneath the banners. I'm fairly confident he's willing to lower the banners so they're at least 18" below the sprink deflectors. He's also willing to make them narrower (48" max wide). But he would like to place them as close together as possible (without needing sprinks below them). Anybody aware of any guidelines for this?
