Being that most of the units I've seen are metal but also have seen some that are plastic, you need to know more about the commodity itself.
Also how is the product stored? How high are they stacked or racked? Wood or plastic pallets? Boxed or crated? Packing materials? Building height? A lot of questions need to be answered before taking any defense posture here. Craig L.

Building should fall under ORD I. Local authority has challenged the engineered drawing (state requirement), calling for the building to be ORD II. This creates some serious issues as you can imagine. Any thoughts on a 'defense' of the ORD I position? _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field) _______________________________________________ Sprinklerforum mailing list [email protected] http://fireball.firesprinkler.org/mailman/listinfo/sprinklerforum For Technical Assistance, send an email to: [email protected] To Unsubscribe, send an email to:[email protected] (Put the word unsubscribe in the subject field)
