NFPA 45 is the standard on laboratories using chemicals. Per NFPA 45:
Educational laboratories can be classified as Class D, fire protection for
Class D is OHI, Class D is permitted to have quantities of flammable liquids
per Table 10.1.1 (a&b) [2011 ed].

See Chapter 10 for more requirements of flammable and combustible liquids.

Subject: Small Chemical Storage Room

I have a project with a small chemical prep/storage room that is 253 sf (19'
x 13'4).  NFPA 13 calls out chemical labs as OH2, but I can't find anything
about the storage/prep.  This is a community college science lab.  What
would be the appropriate design criteria for this room, or what would be the
proper code to reference?

Thanks,
