I had this same situation not too long ago. I believe our engineers told me that this situation is not specifically addressed and we used QR heads.

It also requires that sprinklers listed for use in concealed spaces under 36" deep be used. The Viking Coin, Tyco CC1 and 2 and the new Reliable concealed space sprinkler are listed for spaces from 12" to 36" deep. What are you supposed to do when the space is only 9" deep?
