2012 Exception 1 of 504.2 it indicates the following:
“Exception: The use of an automatic sprinkler system to increase building <span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>heights</span> shall not be permitted for the following conditions:
1. Buildings, or portions of buildings, classified as a Group I-1 Condition 2, of Type IIB, III, IV, or V construction or Group I-2 of Type IIB, III, IV or V construction.”This exception says nothing about “Stories” only “Height”. So am I interpreting this correctly that so long as my building is under 50′ tall (per limit on table 503) that I can building a 2-story Group I-2 occupancy building as a Type V-A Sprinklered structure?
Aware that this exception carry through in the 2015; i.e. does not allow the height and story increase except for Types 1A, 1B and 2A.
