-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Russell Sent: Tuesday, June 03, 2008 10:24 AM To: AFSA Subject: Barrel Ceiling I'm looking at a project which has a room about 40 feet wide and has a ceiling which is barrel shaped. It is not a deep barrel but rather a large radius, it starts out at the wall with about a 3/12 pitch and as it nears the apex it, of course, levels out. In trying to apply the rule for design area increase due to sloping ceilings this situation seems not to fit the written text very clearly. Can anyone offer an opinion or point me towards a standard/code I can apply?
