The building has a sloped roof that exceeds the allowable pitch so they will be installing a dropped ceiling to create the flat surface. The area above the ceiling will now be a combustible concealed space that needs protection. Nothing will be stored above the ceiling, would the area above the ceiling be considered light hazard? From everything that I can find, I believe it would be, but I would appreciate the forums input.
