And that's is what I was thinking also.  This is more of a due diligence
exercise for the contractor and owner, so I wanted to take them something
concrete on why or why not. The only place it's mentioned is 8.15.1.4,
which deals with wood joist construction, and we generally don't protect
these units when located in a non-comb ceiling space where no storage
exists.  So the consensus would be that storage or storage potential is the
trigger for sprinkler protection   They have stated that it will not be
used for storage, which in 20 years means they'll probably have storage
under there.
Thanks,
Jamie
