In the Design Criteria these heads are listed for the generic obstructed
construction.  Great, 1-6" down 22" max etc.  But then there is a special
application for concrete tee's that gives you up to 31" down if you meet all
the other criteria.  Think baffles 32' o.c. 

 

So the question is if I can hold the 22"  and meet the normal obstruction
rules can I use these under tee's like normal obstructed construction or do
I still have to use the special application requirements?  (Tyco is closed
for the day)

 

I think the answer is yes.  I think the special application is only for an
exception to the "exception" that allows 22" down compared to the normal
1-12".  But I can read it either way.  In this case I'd like to stick with
22" because I can with the particulars on the job.  So I have a biased
opinion. 

 

And I'm only bidding so not in a pinch (yet).
