Travis: Not sure about AZ, but in Ohio the smoke control zone and evac plans are part of the architect's original structural submission to plan review. In some cases, preliminary fire alarm device layout and sprinkler design criteria plans are also included, pending submission of shop drawings from the installing contractor. Final sprinkler and fire alarm system shop drawings are submitted by the installing contractors. So the plan reviewer has all of that information before we submit. But much of your post still makes little sense. I-2 Occupancies are normally fully sprinklered and have a full smoke detection fire alarm system. So assuming both systems remain functional, how could they not work together.....?
I can't wait to see how other members of the exchange comment. John Paulsen - SET Crown Fire System Design 6282 Seeds Rd.

His comment said "Typically the building is designed with multiple smoke compartments to provide refuge areas for relocation of the occupants. The fire alarm and fire sprinkler systems need to be designed to work with the evacuation plan. This plan cannot be reviewed without first having a copy of the evacuation plan and the sprinkler plan and alarm plan need to work together to meet the objectives of the evacuation plan."
