Oops!    Sorry!

I was mistakenly looking at Table 16.2.1.3.3.1 when I references Curves A & B.
In Table 16.2.1.3.3.2 both conditions use Curves C & D, but for encapsulated 
you increase the density by 1.5.

How do we arrive at A and B in the Table?

You also must also look at other lines of Table 16.2.1.3.3.2.
For nonencapsulated you need 1 level of in-rack sprinklers and you pick your 
density and design area based on Curves C or D.
For encapsulated you need 1 level of in-rack sprinklers and you pick your 
density and design area based on Curves A or B and then you increase the 
density by a factor of 1.5.
Best regards,

NFPA 13 - 2016.
Class IV Encapsulated- 18'-0"

Table 16.2.1.3.3.2 tells me to go to Figure 16.2.1.3.2(d).

The Figure description says "Class IV Nonencapsulated".
But the table has "Yes" for encapsulated.

Is this a typo, or is it just too late in the  day?
