Rocci,
I completely agree with Greg. I would add the reference to item 3
in the section of the standard, 11.2.3.2.3.1, which specifically uses
the word "ceiling", not "roof."
When it comes right down to it, you can point right to that
paragraph, and ask the AHJ to show you where he found the reference in
-13 to support his position. In short, "prove it."
good luck,

He is incorrect unless the ceiling is open enough to count the roof deck as
part of the same space. The table states "ceiling height".

I have an AHJ claiming that because the roof deck is 18' I can't use the
40%
quick response reduction even though a ceiling is being installed at 9'
AFF.
I have never been questioned on my approach it seems pretty straight
forward..Is he correct in stating I should base my reduction on the 18'
roof
deck?
Thanks in advance for your input
