A.5.1 Occupancy examples in the listings as shown in the various hazard classifications are intended to represent the norm for those occupancy types. Unusual or abnormal fuel loadings or combustible characteristics and susceptibility for changes in these characteristics, for a particular occupancy, are considerations that should be weighed in the selection and classification . The light hazard classification is intended to encompass residential occupancies; however, this is not intended to pre• elude the use of listed residential sprinklers in residential oc• cupancies or residential portions of other occupancies .

Typical library bookshelves of approxi- mately 8 ft (2.4 m) in height, containing books stored verti· cally on end, held in place in dose association with each other, with aisles wider than 30 in. (762 mm) can be considered to be light hazard occupancies. Similarly, library stack areas, which are more akin to shelf storage or record storage, as defined in NFPA 232, Standard for the Protection of Records, should be con· sidered to be ordinary hazard occupancies . A.5.3 For purposes of these definitions, Class I, Class II, Class III, and Class IV commodities would be considered to have moderate rates of heat release, while Group A plastics would be considered to have high rates of heat release. Stockpiles are considered to include display merchandise (mercantile) and arrangements of combustibles ancillary to operations within the occupancy as op-- posed to dedicated storage areas where the fire loading is gener• ally more severe. A.5.3.l Ordinary hazard occupancies (Group 1) include oc• cupancies having uses and conditions similar to the following: Automobile parking and showrooms Bakeries Beverage manufacturing Canneries Dairy products manufacturing and processing Electronic plants Glass and glass products manufacturing Laundries Restaurant service areas A.5.3.2 Ordinary hazard occupancies (Group 2) include oc• cupancies having uses and conditions similar to the following: Agricultural facilities Barns and stables Cereal mills Chemical plants -ordinary Confectionery products Distilleries Dry cleaners Exterior loading docks Note that exterior loading docks only used for loading and unloading of ordinary combustibles should be classified as OH2. For the handling of flammable and combustible liquids, hazardous materials, or where utilized for storage, exterior loading docks and all interior loading docks should be pro· tected based upon the actual occupancy and the materials handled on the dock, as if the materials were actually stored in that configuration.
