What is making you feel you need to put sprinklers under tables that are 16"
off the floor? Or under "normal" circumstances?

located 16" off the floor. Not sure if the tables will be built with 2x8 or
2x10 framing. Under normal circumstances, we would need to have sprinklers
installed under the tables. However, if the distance from the bottom of the
joist to the floor is 6" or less, could it be considered a "concealed space"
and sprinkler be eliminated? I would assume if those sprinklers were
eliminated, the design area for the ceiling would increase to 3000 sqft.
