  Class Description:

  This is a two-part training class on the hazards and protection of high-piled combustible storage.

  Part 1 will cover the general concepts of what high-piled storage is, how to classify and regulate it, and what to look for on inspections. We will discuss how storage has evolved in hazards and challenges, and what we see in the field. The class will assist plans reviewers and field inspectors to understand where and how fire hazards change, and how plans and drawings don’t always capture those hazards.

  Part 2 is intended for those seeking a deep technical dive into the 2024 IFC and 2022/ 2025 NFPA 13 requirements for storage and for reviewing fire sprinkler protection adequacy. This technical focus is ideal for plans reviewers and field inspectors who encounter modern warehousing challenges. We will review changes in the IFC and NFPA 13 for rack storage, as well as modern challenges with Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems and the application of Alternative Designs and Performance Based Designs. A review of FM Global Data Sheets on Alternative Protection for Automated Storage will also be included.
