Mr. Inspector
SAWHORSE
2018 IBC & IEBC. Just need a confirmation. Change of occupancy and alterations. Sprinkler plans indicates a 13R system for a R-1 (on second floor) and a S2 enclosed private parking garage on the first floor. Both floors are 5,520 sq ft. The parking garage will have a dry system because it is not heated. I'm I right that the whole building is to have a 13 system, not a 13R system per #2 below?
