Cubic feet or square feet?  It sounds an awful lot like he's refering to
the IFC requirements for High Piled Combustible Storage.  They may have
an egress or building design issue that is causing a limitation.  We've
run into this a number of times where people just want us to "make the
sprinkler system work" only to find out that the building won't "work"
for what they want.

Subject: 02 storage

This is a completely new area for me so any help is appreciated.

Issue:  Medical Gas Storage of 02 only in various cylinders.

The tenant and owner of this Commercial / Industrial Strip center is
having difficulty with the AHJ who claims that even if they classify the
warehouse portion of this space as Storage Occupancy instead of
Business, The maximum cubic footage of 02 allowed to be stored in one
place is 12,000 with "High Hazard" Sprinkler protection. The tenant
needs to store almost 20,000 cubic feet.

Does anyone have expertise in this area?
Thanks,
Greg
