(Attachment #1). 3.2 Occupancies The facility will be used for warehouse and office space. Rack storage, in double and single row racks with open shelves and aisles of at least 8' -0" will be present in the storage area. Breg will be classified overall as an S-1 Occupancy, though it contains areas of Band S-1 occupancy, as defined by CBC 304-311.

High-Piled Storage Requirements The commodities are Group A Unexpanded Plastics commodities, stored non-encapsulated, cartoned, on conventional pallets on open shelving in single and double row racks. The overall commodity classification per CFC Section 23 03 .1 through 2303.7.1 is designated as Group A (High Hazard). (Attachment #3). Products Method of Storage Cartoned? Encapsulated? Commodity (Attachment #3) Storage Height Class Orthopedic braces [Knee, Ankle, Rack ::; 25'-0" Yes No Class I-IV & Back, Shoulder, Group A etc.l Per CFC Section 2304.1, a high-piled combustible storage area shall be based on the highest hazard commodity class stored except as provided in Section 2304.2. As they are stored to a level of 5' -0" or less, the Group A plastics are not regarded as high piled storage. (Attachment #4) Based on Table 2306.2, the following fire protection requirements will be provided by Breg to meet the requirements of CFC Chapter 23 and NFP A 13 for the entire storage area (Attachment #5): 4. 1 Automatic Fire Sprinkler System The following requirements are based onNFPA 13 (2010 Edition) (Attachment #6): 4.1.1 Rack Storage Area Type of Rack: Single and Double Row Racks Type of Rack Shelving: Commodity Stored: Flue Spaces for Standard Racks: Aisle Widths: Storage Height: Rev I.I 50% or greater open Group A Unexpanded Plastics, cartoned, non- encapsulated; 3' Transverse for Single Row Racks; Longitudinal not required 3" transverse for Double Row Racks; Longitudinal not required 2:: 8' -0" ~ 25'-0" l~ K~AUSB~U;KNER \)-ANO ASSOl:clATES Page 5 • Ceiling Height: Ceiling Sprinkler Option # 1: Ceiling Sprinkler Option #2: Ceiling Sprinkler Option #3: • • Rev 1.1 ~ 30' -0" [to be verified by the fire sprinkler contractor prior to design] High temperature ceiling sprinklers only, minimum K-factor 8.0, Density 0.30 gpm/ft2, over 2,000 ft2 remote area, two levels of in-rack sprinklers, staggered at alternate transverse flue spaces, fourteen flowing in-rack sprinklers at 15.0 psi minimum pressure, hose allowance 500 gpm Minimum 16.8 k-factor sprinkler listed for storage, density 0.80 gpm/ft2, over 2,000 ft2 remote area, hose allowance 500 gpm IF Ceiling heights above the storage do not exceed 30' Control Mode Specific Application (CMSA) 16.8 K- factor upright sprinklers, fifteen flowing sprinklers at 22 psi each, minimum clearance to top of storage 36", hose allowance 500 gpm IF ceiling heights above the storage do not exceed 30'.

This request is based on the intent of the requirement to prevent the collection of the water in the upper levels, thereby to allow for sprinkler water to flow to the lowest level [i.e. 4-5 ft from the floor]. The existing sprinkler system density of 0.50 gpmlfr, and remote area of 2,000 fr does not meet the requirements for this commodity, in this configuration, to this height. Sprinkler system will have to be revised. 4.1.2 Offices The following requirements are based onNFPA 13, 2010 Edition. (Attachment #7): CFC Occupancy Classification: NFPA 13 Occupancy: Design Density Proposed: B Light hazard 0.1/1,500 Hose Stream: 100 gpm for combined inside and outside hose stream demand. 4.2 Alarm/Monitoring Per CFC 903.4, all valves controlling the water supply for automatic sprinkler systems, pumps, tanks, water levels and temperatures, critical air pressures, and water-flow switches on all sprinkler systems (if serving >20 sprinklers) shall be electrically supervised. Alarm, supervisory and trouble signals shall be distinctly different and shall be automatically transmitted to an approved central station, remote supervising station or proprietary supervising station as defined in NFP A 72 or, when approved by the fire code official, shall sound an audible signal at a constantly attended location. Approved audible devices shall be connected to every automatic sprinkler system. Such sprinkler water-flow alarm devices shall be activated by water flow equivalent to the flow of a single sprinkler of the smallest orifice size installed in the system. Alarm devices shall be provided on the exterior of the building in an approved location. Where a fire alarm system is installed, actuation of the automatic sprinkler system shall actuate the building fire alarm system. (Attachment #8) 4.3 Building Access/Doors Where access is required in CFC Section 503, fire apparatus ac~ess roads shall be provided within 150 feet of all portions of the exterior walls of the first story of the building or facility as measured by an approved route . Rev 1.1 KLAOSlll;lUC)(NeR ANO AsscictATES Page? • • • Fire apparatus access roads shall have an unobstructed width of not less than 20 feet, except for approved security gates in accordance with Section 503.6, and an unobstructed vertical clearance of not less than 13 feet 6 inches. The fire code official shall have the authority to require an increase in the minimum access widths where they are inadequate for fire or rescue operations. Fire apparatus access roads shall be designed and maintained to support the imposed loads of fire apparatus and shall be surfaced so as to provide all- weather driving capabilities. The required turning radius of a fire apparatus access road shall be determined by the fire code official. Dead-end fire apparatus access roads in excess of 150 feet in length shall be provided with an approved area for turning around fire apparatus. The grade of the fire apparatus access road shall be within the limits established by the fire code official based on the fire department's apparatus. (Attachment #9) Per CFC Section 2306.6.1.1 a minimum of one access door shall be provided in each 100 lineal feet, or fraction thereof, of the exterior walls that face required fire apparatus access roads. The required access doors shall be distributed such that the lineal distance between adjacent access doors does not exceed 100 feet. Access roads are existing and have been previously approved as part of the shell building. There are no proposed changes to the existing access roads. Access door are subject to fire department approval. On behalf of Breg, we are requesting that access doors be approved as the building is existing and the previous editions of the code did allow for > 100' spacing of these doors (Attachment #9) 4.4 Smoke and Heat Vents Based on CFC Table 2306.2, smoke and heat vents are required for high piled storage areas of High Hazard (Group A) commodities if>2,500 square feet. (Attachment #10) As draft curtains are not required by that same table, CFC Table 910.3 allows the ratio of floor space to smoke and heat vents to be based on the values for draft curtains with a depth of 6'-0". In this case the would be a rate of 1 ft2 of vent area to every 40 ft2 of floor space, if the storage height is above 20'-0", as it will be in this building. Using the ratio of 1 :40, the required venting would be at least 850 ft2, based on 34,000 ft2 [i.e. entire •warehouse] of floor space in the storage area. This equates to 27 [4' x 8' each] smoke and heat vents. Based on CFC Section 910.2.1, smoke and heat vents are not required in buildings and portions thereof used as a Group F-1 or S-1 occupancy having less than 50,000 square feet of undivided area. (Attachment # 10) 4.5 Curtain Boards No curtain boards are required by Chapter 23, Table 2306.2 of the CFC.

One extinguisher may provide coverage to a maximum of 11,250 fr. Fire extinguisher types and locations will be provided by the owners or fire extinguisher vendor and approved by the fire department. 4. 7 Aisle Widths Per CFC 2306.9.1.1, aisles in sprinklered buildings shall be a minimum of 44 inches. Per CFC 2306.9.1 (Exception 1) cross aisles used only for employee access between aisles shall be a minimum of24 inches in width. (Attachment #13). Per CFC 4604.18.2 dead ends shall not exceed 50 feet (Attachment #14). The owners agree to meet the above requirements for aisle widths, and dead ends. 4.8 General Fire Protection & Maintenance The following are general maintenance and safety requirements, of which Breg agrees to comply with: • Per CFC 2305.3, smoking shall be prohibited. Approved NO SMOKING signs shall be conspicuously posted. • Per CFC 2305.4, when restocking is not being conducted, aisles shall be kept clear of storage, waste materials and debris. Fire department access doors, aisles and exit doors shall be unobstructed. During restocking operations using manual stocking methods, a minimum unobstructed aisle width of 24 inches of the required aisle width shall be maintained in 48 inch or smaller aisles.

Based on CBC Table 508.3.3, there are no requirements for mixed occupancy fire barrier walls between B and S-1 occupancies. (Attachment #18). Per CFC Section 23 06 .3 .2.1, the aggregate of all high-piled storage areas within a building shall be used for the application of Table 2306.2 unless such areas are separated from each other by I-hour fire barrier walls constructed in accordance with the California Building Code. Openings in such walls shall be protected by opening protective assemblies having a I-hour fire protection rating. (Attachment #19) Breg will occupy the entire building. Therefore separation requirements between Breg high piled storage and adjacent spaces are not applicable. 7.2 Allowable Area and Sideyards The building is existing. There are no proposed changes to the occupancy, construction or square footage of the building . Rev 1.1 KLAVSSl'!UC::l<N!a:R ANO ASSQJ::IA,Jls, Page 11 • • • 8.
