OK what used to be simple is now a swirling mass of questions... If you have pockets with residential sprinklers that require sprinklers - in this case deeper than 12" - so you are forced to use sidewalls in them and there are ceiling fans in the center of the pocket so you cannot maintain the required 8'-0 minimum distance from the sidewall to fan....
So in a room that is 12'-0 x 14' -0 we either have 3 heads - if we assume the sidewall in the soffit is sufficient for the intent of the code without regard to the obstruction as the pendents on the perimeter will cover under the fan...or 4 if that is not the case. Has the committee discussed these situations?
