Why edition are yo looking at. Chapter 2 is referenced publications in all recent editions and chapter 21.1 (I was speculating on a typo) ends the .1 section at 21.1.9 in the 2016 edition. I'm at home and all my earlier editions are at the office. This is what the 2016 edition has to say about EC sprinklers in chapter 21: Chapter 21 Alternative Sprinkler System Designs for Chapters 12 Through 20 21.5.3 Extended Coverage Spacing Sprinklers. 21.5.3.1Sprinklers having extended coverage areas requir- ing up to 10 sprinklers to be included in the hydraulic calcu- lation shall be installed in accordance with the obstruction criteria described in 8.8.5.1, 8.12.5.2, and 8.12.5.3, unless large-scale fire testing is conducted with a representative ob- struction below the sprinkler that demonstrates equivalent performance. 21.5.3.2CMDA and CMSA sprinklers having extended cover- age areas requiring more than 10 sprinklers in the design area shall be installed in accordance with the obstructions to sprin- kler discharge criteria described in 8.11.5 and 8.8.5.1. 21.5.3.2.1ESFR sprinklers having extended coverage areas requiring more than 10 sprinklers in the design area shall be installed in accordance with the obstructions to sprinkler dis- charge criteria described in 8.12.5.2 and 8.12.5.3. 21.5.3.2.2Other obstruction criteria shall be acceptable if large-scale fire testing is conducted with a representative ob- struction below the sprinkler that demonstrates equivalent performance. 21.5.3.2.3When utilizing upright CMSA, CMDA, or ESFR sprinklers, any continuous obstruction 4 in. (100 mm) or less shall be permitted to be ignored.

I have a project with an interior truck loading bay in a light manufacturing facility. Looking at using FM3-26 as the basis of design, which allocates the design density as .3/3500 for a dry system at HC-3. Am I reading right that I and limited to using standard coverage sprinklers only on a dry system?
