Good evening, I have a question for the group. I’m working with a General Contractor who removed the drop ceiling in an old Sears store. They are doing a T.I. for approx 1/3 of the space making it into a medical office, the remaining 2/3 will remain an empty shell. Now that the ceiling is gone the sprinklers are 6-8 ft below the roof deck.
What is typical to protect an empty shell in this situation? Likely a ceiling will be reinstalled when the space gets reoccupied so it seems a little wasteful to relocate the sprinklers up to within 12” of the roof deck to protect an empty non combustible structure. _________________________________________________________ SprinklerForum mailing list: https://lists.firesprinkler.org/list/sprinklerforum.lists.firesprinkler.org To unsubscribe send an email to sprinklerforum-le...@lists.firesprinkler.org
