As in canopy?? Open on three sides made out of non combustible
Drop off area??
Or they are parked there 24 hours a day, except on runs??
RE: Ambulance bay Sprinkler
This sounds like you are describing maybe something similar to a porte cochere at a hotel. A covered spot where a vehicle is parked for drop-off and pick up. NFPA 13, 2016 edition states that a porte cochere should be protected per Ord Haz Grp I.
If it is a non-combustible canopy, the thought may have been the canopy is not used for the storage or handling of combustibles and that was used to exempt it from coverage.
