Open web or TJI? Viking and Tyco have specific application sprinklers for these areas. (flat spray pattern v.s. the standard dome shaped spray pattern). 2'-0" sounds like open web trusses, and yes the chord members are obstructions, but you will find you don't need to be that far away to be unobstructed.

If so what type and how many heads. I say that by 8.14.1.2.1 that it does not or may not need to be sprinkled but I just don't know. Any help would be great.
