See IFC 904.2, if you don't sprinkler the room and have an alternate agent
you have an UNSPRINKLERED building.

IFC 903.3.1.1.1 I don't see allows omission.  IFC usually supersedes NFPA 13
exception. Code vs. standard in legal lingo.  AHJ interp. required to
determine if electrical room in NFPA 13 exception is overruled by IFC
903.3.1.1.  And also as I think you imply is a telecomm room an electrical
room.  I say no and sprinkler the room but like the rest of the forum have a
biased opinion for sprinklering everything.

Subject: Telecom & Data Rooms

I'm being told by an Architect we are doing a school with that I need to
remove any heads from the Telecom & Data rooms and that I'm not allowed
to run any pipe above those ceilings either. He is basing it on the
provisions for eliminating heads in and Electrical room with a 2 hour
fire wall, am I missing something? I am not aware of Telecom & Data
rooms falling into the same category as an Electrical room. I have
approved plans from the AHJ with the heads shown in those rooms and
omitted from the Electrical rooms. Any thoughts?
