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.

Subject: Class IIIB Liquids

I am having trouble finding a protection scheme for the storage of Class IIIB 
combustible liquids in storage tanks (17,000L) inside a building.

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
