Sounds like exposed unexpanded, with a building height of 40'.   I think
the pitch is okay for ESFR, so try K25 at 50 PSI.   And bring your pump.

Subject: 5 Gallon Bucket Storage

Folks,

I am working on a facility that will be used to store 5 gallon buckets.
They will be stored on pallets. The pallets will be stacked 4 high,
making
a total storage height of 20'-0". There are no racks.
The eave height of the building is 28'-0", and the peak is approx. 38'
high, 
the pitch is 1/2" on 12".
The buckets will be stored open end down.
The Production Manager at the plant couldn't tell me what type of
plastic
the buckets are composed of.
Do any of you have any advice as to what design criteria will be
required.
I have pretty good idea, but it's always good to have an outside
opinion.

Thanks for the help!!

Merry CHRISTmas!
