Assuming Air Force definitely no increase. 99% sure no increase in Navy and 
NFPA 409.

In all cases NFPA 13 defers design to other standards.  Those standards say 
nothing about increases.

But if specified for increase then its a contractual issue not a code issue.

Subject: day of questions - Hangars

Does the 30% design area increase apply to an aircraft hangar that has a
roof slope in excess of 2:12?  Had a job that was specified with a given
density/area.  A new reviewer is requesting a 30% increase to design
area for slope.  This particular project also has a HiEx foam system as
well.
