Requirement of partial sprinkler system

[orator]

If a building is G+2 floors. If it is considered that only last floor has group B occupancy and remaining floors have other occupancy which requires sprinkler system. Is it now possible that I provide sprinkler system only in Ground and first floor with second floor being unsprinklered?

Yes, but it depends on the building code adopted in your jurisdiction and the classification of the all the occupancies in the building.

Although as a building owner I would spend the extra bucks to sprinkler all floors, afterall, you would get full insurance credit for a sprinklered building.
