Another Safe Zone query!

[Pants7478512]

Hi folks,

I have a question regarding the 150mm ceiling/wall junction safe zone.

The on-site guide shows the safe zone in this area running horizontally, does this zone still exist if the ceiling is of sloping construction? I have two thought on this;

1) Zone would still exist
2) It goes against the 'running horizontally' as it will be following the pitch of roof (about 15 degrees)

I have attached a masterpiece of a drawing to help understand my poor description.

Is this a grey area and open to interpretation? Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Kind regards,
Anthony

1) Zone would still exist

It would also still exist if you had a curved ceiling.

For once I agree with Holmslaw.
And he has experience in this area. The mud hut he lives in will probably have a sloping and/or curved ceiling.

The mud hut he lives in will probably have a sloping and/or curved ceiling.

Probably round walls too, so he gets horizontal safe zones all the way round his hut with just a single accessory.

I did a job a while ago in a property called "The Round House".

It was all curved walls. They had to order radiators specially made with the correct curvature.
