Rich, Correct. Chapters 1-12, 23-26, 27 typically apply generally, wherein 13-22, 26 are specific, as are the subsections of those chapters.
Applying Chapter 26 (Marine) other than vessels is an example of overreaching. I know there are lots of TC folks in here, perhaps a "code arrangement" paragraph similar to the NEC ?

Please straighten me out! This applies to CMSA heads only? Galvanized pipe, where used in a normal dry system must be figured at a C=100?? Thanks!
