Has anyone run into a case where the AHJ requires a special inspection
form filled for when the interstitial space is filled entirely with
non-combustible insulation?
It is fairly common in this area for Type V construction multi-family
projects to have the interstitial spaces, and sometimes flat attic
spaces, to be filled entirely with non-combustible insulation in lieu of
providing fire sprinklers in the area. However, we have one local AHJ
that is mandating this is a condition that requires a special inspection
form. It's a done deal because he flat out stated that it is our way
and this is how it will be. I just wonder if anyone else has run into
this. We are in the process of investigating what all is required. It
seems that we will need a professional engineer to go out and sign off
that all insulation is filling the cavity entirely.
