I agree and that's the approach I've always taken. Hydraulic calculations are one of the many deciding factors for me. I've learned closer spacing allows smaller pipe sizes, to a point of course. The rub for him is that 13 has segregated storage from the rest. He didn't question it when 231 and 231C was around (why not?). For him it's just a matter of documentation. He's a realistic thinker so he's not being hard nosed and will accept what has been discussed here.
Thanks to Joe B., Joseph S. Ron F. and you Craig for all your input. A big help.

So there's no reason to repeat the info specifically in the storage section of 13 when the limitations of the specific sprinkler type and spacing is listed elsewhere in the document. There aren't any specific spacing rules for storage versus non-storage areas for standard sprinklers. Sprinkler spacing are based on their listings. The only specific spacing data in 13 is related to in-rack sprinklers. The AHJ just isn't going to see it in that section. Craig L.
