Where required by Table 3206.2, fire detection systems, smoke and heat removal, draft curtains and automatic sprinkler design densi- ties shall extend the lesser of 15 feet (4572 mm) beyond the high-piled storage area or to a permanent partition. Where portions of high-piled storage areas have different fire protec- tion requirements because of commodity, method of storage or storage height, the fire protection features required by Table 3206.2 within this area shall be based on the most restrictive design requirements. 3206.3 Separation of high-piled storage areas. High-piled storage areas shall be separated from other portions of the building where required by Sections 3206.3.1 through 3206.3.2.2. 3206.3.1 Separation from other uses.

Where Table 509 specifies a fire- resistance-rated separation, the incidental uses shall be separated from the remainder of the building by a fire bar- rier constructed in accordance with Section 707 or a hori- zontal assembly constructed in accordance with Section 711, or both. Construction supporting 1-hour fire barriers or horizontal assemblies used for incidental use separa- tions in buildings of Type liB, IIIB and VB construction is not required to be fire-resistance rated unless required by other sections of this code. 509.4.2 Protection. Where Table 509 permits an auto- matic sprinkler system without a fire barrier, the incidental uses shall be separated from the remainder of the building by construction capable of resisting the passage of smoke. The walls shall extend from the top of the foundation or floor assembly below to the underside of the ceiling that is a component of a fire-resistance-rated floor assembly or roof assembly above or to the underside of the floor or roof sheathing, deck or slab above. Doors shall be self-or automatic-closing upon detection of smoke in accordance with Section 716.5.9.3. Doors shall not have air transfer openings and shall not be undercut in excess of the clear- ance permitted in accordance with NFPA 80. Walls sur- rounding the incidental usc shall not have air transfer 188 openings unless provided with smoke dampers in accor- dance with Section 710.7. 509.4.2.1 Protection limitation. Except as specified in Table 509 for certain incidental uses, where an automatic sprinkler system is provided in accordance with Table 509, only the space occupied by the incidental use need be equipped with such a system. SECTION 510 SPECIAL PROVISIONS 510.1 General. The provisions in Sections 510.2 through 510.9 shall permit the usc of special conditions that are exempt from, or modify, the specific requirements of this chapter regarding the allowable building heights and areas of buildings based on the occupancy classification and type of construction, provided the special condition complies with the provisions specified in this section for such condition and other applicable requirements of this code. The provisions of Sections 510.2 through 5 I 0.8 arc to be considered indepen- dent and separate from each other. 510.2 Horizontal building separation allowance.

High-piled storage areas, and portions of high-piled storage areas intended for storage of a different commodity class than adjacent areas, shall be designed and specifically designated to contain Class I, Class II, Class Ill, Class IV or high-hazard commodities. The designation of a high-piled combustible storage area, or portion thereof intended for storage of a different commodity class, shall be based on the highest hazard commodity class stored except as provided in Section 3204.2. 3204.2 Designation based on engineering analysis. The designation of a high-piled combustible storage area, or por- tion thereof, is allowed to be based on a lower hazard class than that of the highest class of commodity stored when a limited quantity of the higher hazard commodity has been demonstrated by engineering analysis to be adequately pro- tected by the automatic sprinkler system provided. The engi- neering analysis shall consider the ability of the sprinkler system to deliver the higher density required by the higher hazard commodity. The higher density shall be based on the actual storage height of the pile or rack and the minimum allowable design area for sprinkler operation as set forth in the density/area figures provided in NFPA 13. The contigu- ous area occupied by the higher hazard commodity shall not exceed 120 square feet (I 1 m2) and additional areas of higher hazard commodity shall be separated from other such areas by 25 feet (7620 mm) or more. The sprinkler system shall be capable of delivering the higher density over a minimum area of 900 square feet (84 m2) for wet pipe systems and 1,200 square feet (Ill m2) for dry pipe systems. The shape of the design area shall be in accordance with Section 903. SECTION 3205 HOUSEKEEPING AND MAINTENANCE 3205.1 Rack structures. The structural integrity of racks shall be maintained. 3205.2 Ignition sources. Clearance from ignition sources shall be provided in accordance with Section 305. 3205.3 Smoking. Smoking shall be prohibited. Approved "No Smoking" signs shall be conspicuously posted in accor- dance with Section 310. 3205.4 Aisle maintenance. When restocking is not being conducted, aisles shall be kept clear of storage, waste mate- rial and debris. Fire department access doors, aisles and exit doors shall not be obstructed. During restocking operations using manual stocking methods, a minimum unobstructed aisle width of 24 inches (610 mm) shall be maintained in 48- inch (1219 mm) or smaller aisles, and a minimum unob- structed aisle width of one-half of the required aisle width shall be maintained in aisles greater than 48 inches (1219 mm). During mechanical stocking operations, a minimum unobstructed aisle width of 44 inches (I I 18 mm) shall be maintained in accordance with Section 3206.9. 3205.5 Pile dimension and height limitations. Pile dimen- sions and height limitations shall comply with Section 3207.3. 2013 CALIFORNIA FIRE CODE HIGH-PILED COMBUSTIBLE STORAGE 3205.6 Designation of storage heights. Where required by the fire code official, a visual method of indicating the maxi- mum allowable storage height shall be provided. 3205.7 Arrays. Arrays shall comply with Section 3207.4. 3205.8 Flue spaces. Flue spaces shall comply with Section 3208.3. SECTION 3206 GENERAL FIRE PROTECTION AND LIFE SAFETY FEATURES 3206.1 General. Fire protection and life safety features for high-piled storage areas shall be in accordance with Sections 3206.2 through 3206.10. 3206.2 Extent and type of protection. Where required by Table 3206.2, fire detection systems, smoke and heat removal, draft curtains and automatic sprinkler design densi- ties shall extend the lesser of 15 feet (4572 mm) beyond the high-piled storage area or to a permanent partition. Where portions of high-piled storage areas have different fire protec- tion requirements because of commodity, method of storage or storage height, the fire protection features required by Table 3206.2 within this area shall be based on the most restrictive design requirements. 3206.3 Separation of high-piled storage areas. High-piled storage areas shall be separated from other portions of the building where required by Sections 3206.3.1 through 3206.3.2.2. 3206.3.1 Separation from other uses. Mixed occupan- cies shall be separated in accordance with the California Building Code. 3206.3.2 Multiple high-piled storage areas. Multiple high-piled storage areas shall be in accordance with Sec- tion 3206.3.2.1 or 3206.3.2.2. 3206.3.2.2 Multiclass high-piled storage areas. High- piled storage areas classified as Class I through IV not separated from high-piled storage areas classified as high hazard shall utilize the aggregate of all high-piled storage areas as high hazard for the purposes of the application of Table 3206.2. To be considered as sepa- rated, 1-hour fire barriers shall be constructed in accor- dance with Section 707 of the California Building Code. Openings in such fire barriers shall be protected by opening protectives having a 1-hour fire protection rating. Exception: As provided for in Section 3204.2. 3206.4 Automatic sprinklers. Automatic sprinkler systems shall be provided in accordance with Sections 3207, 3208 and 3209. 337
