Richard Suggest you start eliminating your aerosol cans and flammable/combustible liquids to a fire segregated/fire separated area, otherwise you will have a very very costly system. Then look into amount of plastics (commodity and packaging). Highlight these out if I were you. Cheers Jack

I am involved in an initial design (performance spec) for a warehouse type project consisting of a butler building approx. 300'x60' and 35' high in size (18,000 sq. ft.). Approx 7000 sq. ft. of floor area will consist of 25' high rack storage that is 42" deep with a 12" space and then another 42" deep rack. There are 5 racks of this arrangement with an aisle at minimum 9'-6" width between them. The shelving itself is wire decking. The center part of the building has some administrative area offices and other storage areas (no shelving shown). The other end of the building is a maintenance garage for repairs of vehicles. We have asked about what they intend to store on the shelving and have been told that primarily they are storing spare machinery parts, some of which are in wood crates; these are small, medium, large and very large. These include hydraulic cylinders, engines, transmissions, radiators, air chambers, pumps, belts, hoses, fittings, nuts, bolts (small items are in cardboard boxes in most cases), and tools (both power and non-power tools). Aerosol cans include brake cleaner, starting fluid, lubricant (WD-40), window cleaner, and paint. They carry no more than two cases (24 cans) of each item in stock. There are filters, including fuel, oil, air, water, and hydraulic types, all sizes and shapes. They also store spare pre-charged batteries. These are heavy equipment batteries; (2) large, (2) medium and (4) small are typically all they have on hand. We feel the rack storage area is our most demanding area. We have reviewed our options and feel that Commodity Class II would be appropriate based on the above information. Does anyone see something that might reflect using a different classification? Appreciate any response. Richard Richard K.
