Above and below is the usual slang for what I'd think he means. And maybe the contract dwgs showed above and below, referred to it as under/over, and maybe this is a plumber who doesn't know you don't need uprights in noncombustible spaces, maybe the AE doesn't care, they're on the docs and its plan/spec, or ???

Someone in my office has a set of plans where the contractor called out the sprinklers as under/over sprinklers. At first I thought maybe it was describing pendant sprinklers below the ceiling and upright above, protecting a combustible concealed space. However, the construction noncombustible (concrete floors and gyp ceilings). The only details on the plans are for a concealed sprinkler on a return bend and a detail for an upright sprinkler. I'm sure they will be contacting the contractor about the term but I was just curious if anyone here had seen the term.
