In dealing with inspections related to missing ceiling tiles. One thing is clear is that it would be a violation of 901.6 if the building has fire sprinklers or smoke detection to have missing or removed ceiling tiles with sprinkler heads penetrating and detectors attached. What is a little more gray is if there is no fire detection or supression in the building. It can sometimes be difficult to determine if the suspended ceiling is part of the fire rated assembly so 703.1 is questionable. What would you write this under if we are able to require the replacement of the tile at all.
