I know this has been talked about before, but I am having trouble getting onto the archives.
I have a situation in an auditorium/lecture hall that has a ceiling that steps down as you get closer to the front of the room. However, there is about a 2'-0 perimeter around the room that is open to the non-combustible space above the ceiling. In this case I'd be willing to sprinkle around the opening (sort of like 8.15.1.5 in the '07), but it seems pointless to provide coverage over this entire lowered ceiling. Is there any code that backs this up? I thought I've heard some, but I don't know where it is.
