I'm tired of my own voice Dewayne but I hate to see a brother flapping
in the forum breeze.
Too bad it's such an old edition.
If you have to sprinkler it, and the attic system is dry, you could
stub 1" (sloped slightly up) into the space to a regular sidewall.
At least that would get rid of the lift.

Quoting Dewayne Martinez <[email protected]>:
NFPA 13 (07ed)
We have an attic where there is a combustible concealed roof overhang that
extends 3’-6” away from the building (a-frame attic trusses) and the
overhang is completely cut off from the main attic by the exterior wall
with the exception of 1 ½” deep baffles at the roof deck to transfer air
IE: acting like a vent soffit. We need to provide sprinkler protection in
this space unless one of the exceptions for concealed spaces 8.15.1 can be
met right? Just wanted to confirm because it is 30ft up in the air and
will require a boom lift to get to, which was not included in the
estimate…….
Thanks,
Dewayne Martinez
