As I stated in a previous, related thread, you start with the fire code and work from there. IIIB's are easier to work with from a fire protection standpoint, but it may take an engineering solution.

Currently the building is non-sprinklered and the tenant would like to move in but the quantities are above what is allowed for unprotected, but as noted above one of the storage options is in non-portable metal tanks to be located within a dyked area. If someone has worked on something like this and could point me in the right direction I would appreciate the help. Thank You James Crawford Phaser Fire Protection Ltd.
