Joe,
I believe your conclusions regarding the commodity are spot on, with one
other item to note that the plastics were "unexpanded", and "exposed."
After that it would depend on which edition of the standard is
applicable in your area.
From what you've described the criteria from the 2016 edition is likely
shown in Figure 17.2.1.4(k), it would be 0.80 gpm over 1500 ft², with
one level of closely spaced in rack sprinklers. That is based on using
CMDA sprinklers. If you were to select CMSA sprinklers table 17.2.2.1
would appear to give the correct criteria. If your choice was ESFR's
then Table 17.2.3.1 would apply.
It would likely be covered in chapter 21 of the '19 edition, §21.5 for
CMDA, §22.5 for CMSA, and §23.6 for ESFR's.
I would echo the thoughts of Bruce Verhei. I can't imagine that there
hasn't been testing done by that entity for protection of their
products. To that end it would likely be shown in §24.3 if the '19.
hope that's of some help,

I would appreciate the forum's opinion of the typical warehouse for
the brand-name soda manufacturers. I consider the following to be a
group A plastic commodity:
Less than 5 gallons, of non-combustible liquid in a PET bottle,
stacked on a plastic tray to an overall height of about 5'-0",
encapsulated around the sides on a plastic non-reinforced pallet.
These will then will be placed in racks to a top height of storage of
20'-0" with a roof deck of 34'-0", with 8'-0 aisles.
I do not have the MSDA sheets on the bottles, or the trays yet. I am
guessing some of you have done designs for these before.
