In this project, it was shown on the architectural plans. Quite clearly
called out.

Ahhh I was waiting for that question. Because it's in the sprinkler
standard, noted on the sprinkler plans by the sprinkler designer, and
often the architect nor engineer know the sprinkler designer took that
option, or it conflicts with the architects design.
As a result we deny such applications unless the insulation fill is
also shown on the architectural plans. In New Jersey it is also an
adopted regulation that any plans, shop drawings etc prepared by other
than the principal designer have to be reviewed and approved by the
principal designer with an accompanying letter at the time of
submission to that affect. Often enough we get back from the principal
designer that the method submitted by others is not approved.

Seems to me that if the architect or GC wants to fill the space with
insulation instead of sprinkle ring it's between him and the insulator
to get it right. If the AHJ wants to get involved then OK, but with
them. If you don't put in sprinklers because insulation has been
approved what business is it of the sprinkler guy?

Members,
When an interstitial space is filled entirely with non-combustible
insulation we coordinate with the contractor and perform the
inspection ourselves.
