Subject: Soybean, corn, oat, & wheat storage
Warning! This email came from outside your company.
I am looking at a project that is storing soybean, corn, oat and wheat seeds in
large polypropylene bags (think large sand / rock bags) . The client has
indicated that these are to be stored on floor, two high for a total storage
height of less than 12'. I know NFPA 13 does not address this, and FM seems to
be silent also.
Based on the storage height, and free flowing nature of the product I am
leaning towards an ordinary group 2 classification, but wanted to run it by the
forumites to see if anyone has run across this in the past.
Any Takers?
Thanks,
Jamie Seidl
