NFPA #30 (2008 ed)
We have a client that has a Liquid warehouse (1,200 ft²) that did not require sprinkler protection by code, but did require sprinkler protection by the AHJ to get a building permit. The system is an Ordinary hazard group 2 dry system. They store class II and IIIB liquids in steel drums and Plastic IBC, originally storage was on the floor to 4-0 one drum or tote high. But as with all thing the company grows and they want to store higher. Table 12.6.2.2 Quantity Limitations for unprotected Liquid Warehouses will allow 10-0 of class II and 15-0 of class IIIB So my understanding is that unprotected is defined as not protected to NFPA #30, so based on Table 12.6.2.2 they can store these products to the heights noted even thou the area is sprinkled to NFPA #13 Ordinary hazard group 2. Am I missing something? Thank you James Crawford Phaser Fire Protection Ltd. Phone 604-888-0318 Fax 604-888-4732 Cel 604-790-0938 Email [email protected] Web www.phaserfire.ca
