I would watch for (I saw this in a hardware warehouse): they would occasionally receive shipments of plastic trashcans, sleds and things like that even though it was not their typical product.

AFPsprink.com -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Greg McGahan Sent: Thursday, May 13, 2010 8:23 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Warehouse Commodity The AHJ has asked us to run some quick calcs on the scenario below to satisfy his curiosity, any help is appreciated! 1) Existing building - 50 yrs old. Originally had a pump and tank and some time in the past pump and tank were abandoned and tied into public water. 2) Was built for who knows what and is now a warehouse for a chain retail store for damaged items and Lawn and Garden Equipment. 3) Wet System - no calc plate - Looks like some type of schedule system that varies somewhat. Some lines are 1.25, 1.5, 2 and some are 1.5, 2,2,2,2 etc. 4) Storing on wood pallets on open racks Unencapsulated a varied mixture of the following items to a max of 15' high: about 10' clear to roof deck a. Weedeaters in boxes b. Lawnmowers c. Metal toolboxes d. Small electric hand tools e. Some appliances f. Some appliance repair parts There is not really any predominant type of item, or even 2 or 3 types. It's weird and complicated. The difficulty is that for the AHJ's purposes right now, there is no Engineer involved and will be only if the calcs fail miserably. Does Class IV seem reasonable?
