Exposed plastic containers would become Class A exposed plastics in my conservative analysis.
They shed water so wetting can’t take place. How big are the boxes? Is it a pallet loads of plastic boxes with combustibles. Is it more than 15% of the weight of matertials No access to NFPA today Art Tiroly ATCO Fire Protection 216-570-7030 From: Sprinklerforum [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Travis Mack Sent: Saturday, February 11, 2017 2:34 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Commodity class upgrade? I have a project where they are storing class III commodities in plastic totes. The product is stored on racks with 12' to top of storage. Does the plastic totes cause me to increase / modify the commodity class? I swear I read something about that in the storage chapters but I can't seem to locate it. This jurisdiction is under the 2013 edition of NFPA 13.
