NFPA 13 permits the installation of sidewall sprinkler in a vertical change in ceiling?
8.7.4.1.4.1 "Where soffits exceed more than 8 in in width or projection from the wall, pendent sprinklers shall be installed under the soffit"
can be interpreted as allowing this configuration if pendent sprinkler is installed to protect the lower side of the ceiling.
If it is permitted nowhere it is said what is the minimum vertical change in which to install the sidewall sprinkler.
I appreciate if anyone has this more clear.
