I have an apartment building where the architect took the area increases for a 
full 13 system. They are utilizing a 16"open web truss in between the floors. 
The mechanical is running hvac in the truss. The sections show the space filled 
with insulation with an accompanying note that states that it will be. My 
question is how is this "completely filled with non - combustible insulation?" 
They are planning on blowing in the insulation around all the duct etc that is 
in the space but it just seems really hard to believe that it will indeed be 
completely filled. I remember a while back Roland tried to get a 2" gap on the 
top and I think that was a battle. I am picturing the duct blocking insulation 
from getting in plenty of spots. Maybe not? Any thougts?
