The over under sprinkler may refer to the Old Style head, where around 
60% is sprayed above and 40% is sprayed below.

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 ???

Subject: Under/Over Sprinkler

Has anyone seen/used the term under/over sprinkler on a set plans? 
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.

Thanks,

Jim
