The interesting thing, is that I would say 99.99% of the ones I deal with are awesome. There is just the 0.01% that cause headaches.

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.
