Travis.  Then you would be good to go in our department, we would be inspecting 
it and you wouldn't be writing these emails.

In this project, it was shown on the architectural plans.  Quite clearly called 
out.

Ahhh I was waiting for that question. Because it's in the sprinkler standard, 
noted on the sprinkler plans by the sprinkler designer, and often the architect 
nor engineer know the sprinkler designer took that option, or it conflicts with 
the architects design.

As a result we deny such applications unless the insulation fill is also shown 
on the architectural plans. In New Jersey it is also an adopted regulation that 
any plans, shop drawings etc prepared by other than the principal designer have 
to be reviewed and approved by the principal designer with an accompanying 
letter at the time of submission to that affect. Often enough we get back from 
the principal designer that the method submitted by others is not approved.

Seems to me that if the architect or GC wants to fill the space with insulation 
instead of sprinkle ring it's between him and the insulator to get it right. If 
the AHJ wants to get involved then OK, but with them. If you don't put in 
sprinklers because insulation has been approved what business is it of the 
sprinkler guy?

Members,

When an interstitial space is filled entirely with non-combustible insulation 
we coordinate with the contractor and perform the inspection ourselves.
