If this is a prefabricated steel building you can get the actual erection drawings and in the back of the set sometimes the manufacturer has diagrams of how to attach sprinkler pipe. It is not uncommon around here for them to require a piece of angle iron of a given size and length and bolt it to the inside of the purlin. Even when you hang on the vertical portion. I would suggest you get an approval from someone so as not to have to eat it later.

Sammy sidewinder I would assume. Someone recently asked about using a standard top beam clamp on a Z-purlin, I know that's not the way we do it but where in the code does it say you can't?
