Titan, I would email your PB to express your concern about the shelf being too small. That way it is in writing! A FOOT is a lot more than is normal I THINK.
Do everything in your power to be there when they do the steel. Your plaster will be ABOUT 3 inches above the steel to give you a reference for when they do start it. Make sure to talk to your steel people about your concern even if you have to use a drawing and tape measure to show them how big it should be.
Better safe than sorry. We had one build where they made a shelf instead of a beach entry BUT because the owner was there watching he was able to have the correct it RIGHT then instead of having to call them back out.
