From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Travis Mack, SET Sent: Wednesday, May 03, 2017 5:09 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: special inspections 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. -- Travis Mack, SET MFP Design, LLC 2508 E Lodgepole Drive Gilbert, AZ 85298 480-505-9271 fax: 866-430-6107 email:[email protected]<mailto:email:[email protected]> http://www.mfpdesign.com https://www.facebook.com/pages/MFP-Design-LLC/92218417692 Send large files to us via: https://www.hightail.com/u/MFPDesign LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travismack ________________________________ [http://static.avast.com/emails/avg-mail-stamp.png]<http://www.avg.com/internet-security> This email has been checked for viruses by AVG antivirus software. www.avg.com<http://www.avg.com/internet-security>
