It is not the same as having to put sprinklers under a duct where you
would exclude them. I have always included the pendents in the soffit
in that situation.

I am looking at a calc and I wanted to make sure I am thinking about this
correctly:
If there is a soffit that is over 8" that has sidewalls in it at the ceiling
level - it also needs pendants under it. Then when the area/density calc is
performed you have to flow the pendant and sidewall heads for that area - right?
I can't think of any reason why you would not calc both sets of heads, but I
have been getting some push back (primarily due to the increase in water
volume). Just wanted to make sure I am on the right track.
Thanks!
