5.2 Exhaust Ventilation of Flammable Vapors
Mechanical exhaust is not required by the California Building and Fire Code, however the
following exhaust ventilation is recommended to avoid requirements for explosion
deflagration requirements of CFC Section 911.1 and 911.3 (Attachment #22). Additionally
mechanical exhaust to maintain vapors at or below 25% lower flammable limit is an
acceptable method of explosion deflagration prevention in accordance with NFPA 69.
Local exhaust ventilation is recommended based on 25% Lower Flammable Limit (LFL)
calculations in Attachment #22. Please note that the local exhaust is recommended for
flammable/combustible liquids to maintain flammable vapors at <25% LFL. See
Attachment #22 for cfin calculations for proposed products in use. Two methods of exhaust
calculations have been used to determine the minimum required cfin rate to maintain
vapors at or below 25% Lower Flammable Limit:
• Fire Protection Handbook [18th Edition]: Section 4, Chapter 6 "Flammable and
Combustible Liquids" pp 4-63 ["Calculating Vapor Volume and Flammable
Mixtures"]
• Industrial Ventilation: A Manual of Recommended Practice [24th Edition], Section
2.5 ["Dilution Ventilation for Fire and Explosion"]
Please note that the following exhaust rates, based on lower flammable limit calculations in
Attachment #22 are applicable to the fume hoods/local exhaust only. where flammable
liquids are in open-use. The exhaust ventilation system shall be designed by the mechanical
contrac tor in accordance with the California Mechanical Code.
Room (Location) CFM Based on 25% LFL
Calculations
Extrusion 361
Sheet Elastomer Furne Hood 344
Conformal Elastomer Furne Hood 310
Randoloh Elastomer Furne Hood 310
HIK Vent 364
Please note that the flammable liquids used within spray booths are not included as part of
the above calculations. Please also note the cfrn rate calculations based on 25% LFL
includes a factor of safety of 4 [i.e. 4 times the minimum exhaust rate needed to maintain
the vapors below the lower flammable limit]. The design of the exhaust shall either meet
the cfrn rates proposed above based on 25% LFL OR it shall meet the manufacturer's
recommended rates for the exhaust hood. The vapors within the duct system are not
considered "flammable vapors" if the above minimum exhaust rates are provided as
defined by Section 502 of the California Mechanical Code (Attachment #22).
There are two types of corrosive products [ see chemical inventory] stored and used in
small amounts within the facility. None of these materials are used within the
ducted/exhausted areas; therefore Class 5 duct system is not proposed.

A.4.6 Non-system components can adversely affect the opera-
tion and longevity of the fire sprinkler system. Objects con-
nected to the sprinkler system can displace sprinkler system
piping, causing obstruction to the spray pattern of sprinklers,
delay the activation of a sprinkler, or cause chemical compat-
ibility problems that can cause the failure of sprinkler system
components.
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 ch aracteristics 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-
clude the use of listed resid_ential sprinklers in residential oc-
cupancies or residential portions of other occupancies.

Note that it is not the committee's intent to automatically
equate library bookshelves with ordinary hazard occupancies
or with library stacks. Typical library bookshelves of approxi-
mately 8 ft (2.4 m) in height, containing books stored vertically
on end, held in place in close association with each other, with
aisles wider than 30 in. (750 mm) can be considered Lo be light
hazard occupancies. Similarly, library stack areas, which are more
akin to shelf storage or record storage, as defined in NFPA 232,
should be considered 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 h igh rates of heat release. Stock-
piles are considered to include display merchandise (mercan-
tile) and arrangements of com bustibles ancillary to operations
within the occupancy as opposed to dedicated storage areas
where the fire loading is generally more severe.
A.5.3.1 Ordinary hazard (Group 1) occupancies include oc-
cupancies having uses and conditions similar to the following:
(1) Automobile parking and showrooms
(2) Bakeries
(3) Beverage manufacturing
( 4) Canneries
(5) Dairy products manufacturing and processing
(6) Electronic plants
(7) Glass and glass products manufacturing
(8) Laundries
(9) Restaurant service areas

cupancies having uses and conditions similar to the following:
(1) Agricultural facilities
(2) Barns and stables
(3) Cereal mills
( 4) Chemical plants -ordinary
(5) Confectionery products
(6) Distilleries
(7) Dry cleaners
(8) Exterior loading docks (Note that exterior loading
docks only used for loading and unloading of ordinary
combustibles should be classified as OH2. For the h an-
dling of flammable and combustible liquids, hazardous
materials, or where utilized for storage, exterior loading
docks and all interior loading docks should be protected
based upon the actual occupancy and the materials
handled on the dock, as if the materials were actually
stored in that configuration.)

A.4.6 Non-sysLem components can adversely affect Lhe opera-
tion and longeviLy of Lhe fire sprinkler system. Objects con-
nected to the sprinkler system can displace sprinkler system
piping, causing obstruction to the spray pattern of sprinklers,
delay the activation of a sprinkler, or cause chemical compat-
ibiliLy problems that can cause the failure of sprinkler system
compon ents.
A.5.1 Occupancy examples in the listings as shown in the
various hazard classifications are intended to rep resent the
norm for those occupancy types. Unusual or abnormal fuel
loadings o r 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-
clude the use of lisLed residential sprinklers in residential oc-
cupancies or residential portions of other occupancies.
A.5.2 LighL hazard occupancies include occupancies having
uses and conditions similar Lo the following:
(1) Animal shelters
(2) Churches
(3) Clubs
( 4) Eaves and overhangs, if of combustible construction with
no combustibles beneaLh
(5) Educational
(6) HospiLals, including animal hospitals and veterinary fa-
cilities
(7) Institutional
(8) Kennels
(9) Libraries, excep t large stack rooms
(10) Museums
(11) Nursing or convalescent homes
(12) Offices, including data processing
(13) Residential
(14) RestauranL seating areas
(15) TheaLers and auditoriums, excluding st.ages and prosce-
niu ms
(16) Unused attics
Note thaL iL is not the comrniuee's inLent Lo automatically
equate library bookshelves with ordinary hazard occupancies
or with library stacks. Typical library bookshelves of approxi-
mately 8 ft (2.4 m) in height, containing books stored vertically
on end, held in place in close association with each other, with
aisles wider than 30 in. (750 mm) can be considered to be light
hazard occupancies. Similarly, library stack areas, which are more
akin Lo shelf sLorage or record sLorage, as-defined in NFPA 232,
should be considered to be ordinary hazard occupancies.
A.5.3 For purposes of these definitions, Class I, Class II,
Class ill, and Class IV commodities would be considered to
h ave moderate rates of heat release, while Group A plastics
would be considered to have high rates of heat release. SLock-
p iles are considered to include display merchandise (mercan-
tile) and arrangements of combustibles ancillary to operations
within the occupancy as opposed to dedicated sLOrage areas
where the fire loading is generally more severe.
A.5.3.1 O rdinary hazard (Group l ) occupancies include oc-
cupancies having uses and conditions similar to the following:
(1) AuLomobile parking and showrooms
(2) Bakeries
(3) Beverage manufacturing
( 4) Canneries
(5) Dairy products man ufacturing and processing
(6) EleCLronic plants
(7) Glass and glass products manufacturing
(8) Laundries

( 4) Chemical plants -ordinary
(5) Confectionery products '
(6) Distilleries
(7) Dry cleaners
(8) Exterior loading docks (Note -that exterior loading
docks only used for loading and unloading of ordinary
combustibles should be classified as OH2. For the han-·
dling of flammable and combustible liquids, h¥8rdous
materials, or where utilized for storage, exterior loading
docks and all iotetior loading docks should be protected
based upon the actual occupancy and the matetials
handled on the doak, as if ihe materials we re actually
stored.in that configuration.)

A.5.5 Other NFPA standards contain design criteria for fire
control or fire suppression (see Section 5.5 and Chapter 2). While
these can form the basis of design criteria, this sLandard de-
scribes the methods of design, insLallation, fabrication, calcu-
lation, and evaluation of water supplies that should be used for
the specific design of the system.
2016 Edilion
Other NFPAsLandards contain sprinkler sysLem design cri-
teria for fire control or suppression of specific hazards. This
information has been eilher referenced or copied into Chap-
ter 22 using NFPA's extracL policy.
A.5.6 SpecificaLion of the type, amount, and arrangement
of combustibles for any commodity classification is essen-
tially an attempt to define the potential fire severity, based
on its burning characterisLics, so the fire can be successfully
controlled by the prescribed sprinkler protection for the
commodity class. In actual storage situations, however,
many storage arrays do noL fit precisely into one of the fun-
damental classifications; therefore, the user needs to make
j udgments after comparing each classification to the exist-
ing sLOrage conditions. Storage arrays consist of thousands
of produclS, which makes it impossible to specify all the
acceptable variations for any class. As an alternative, a vari-
ety of common produclS are classified in this annex based
on j udgment, loss experience, and fire tesl results.
TableA.5.6 provides examples of commodities nol addressed
by the classifications in Section 5.6. The commodities listed in
TableA.5.6 are ouLSide the scope ofNFPA 13 protection.

A.5.5 Other NFPA standards contain design criteria for fire
control or fire suppression (see Section 5.5 and Chapter 2). While
these can form the basis of design criteria, this standard de-
scribes the methods of design, installation, fab,;cation, calcu-
lation, and evaluation of water supplies that should be used for
the specific design of the system.
2016 Edition
Other NFPA standards contain sprinkler system design cri-
teria for fire control or suppression of specific hazards. This
information has been either referenced or copied into Chap-
ter 22 using NFPA's extract policy.
A.5.6 Specification of the type, amount, and arrangement
of combustibles for any commodity classification is essen-
tially an attempt to define the potential fire severity, based
on its burning characterisLics, so the fire can be successfully
controlled by the prescribed sprinkler protection for the
commodity class. In actual storage situations, however,
many storage arrays do not fit precisely into one of the fun-
damental classifications; therefore, the user needs to make
judgments after comparing each classification to the exist-
ing storage conditions. Storage arrays consist of thousands
of products, which makes it impossible to specify all the
acceptable variations for any class. As an alternative, a vari-
ety of common products are classified in this annex based
on judgment, loss experience, and fire test results.
Table A.5.6 provides examples of commodities not addressed
by the classifications in Sect.ion 5.6. The commodities listed in
Table A.5.6 are outside the scope of l\1FPA 13 protect.ion.
Table A.5.6.3 is an alphabetized list of commodiLies with
corresponding classifications.
Table A.5.6.3.1, Table A.5.6.3.2, Table A.5.6.3.3, Table
A.5.6.3.4, and Table A.5.6.4.1 provide examples of commodi-
ties within a specific class.

♦ A material that readily yields oxygen or other oxidizing gas, or that readily reacts to promote or initiate combustion of combustible materials and, if
heated or contaminated, can result in vigorous self-sustained decomposition.
♦ Examples of other oxidizing gases include bromide, chlorine and fluorine.
♦ DOT Class 5.1 Materials.
Class 4 Oxidizer:
• Can undergo an explosive reaction due to contamination or exposure to thermal or physical shock and that causes a severe increase in the
burning rate of combustible materials with which it comes into contact. Additionally, the oxidizer causes a severe increase in the burning
rate and can cause spontaneous ignition of combustibles.
• Acceptable Test Criteria -DOT Packaging Group I: Material which, in either concentration tested, exhibits a burning time equal to or less
than that of potassium bromate.
• Class 3 Oxidizer:
• Will cause a severe increase in the burning rate of combustible materials with which it comes in contact.
, Acceptable Test Criteria -DOT Packaging Group II: Material, which, in either concentration tested, exhibits a burning time between that of
potassium bromate and that of potassium perchlorate.
Class 2 Oxidizer:
• Will cause a moderate increase in the burning rate of combustible materials with which it comes in contact.
■ Acceptable Test Criteria -DOT Packaging Group Ill: Material, which, in either concentration tested, exhibits a burning time between that of
potassium perchlorate and that of ammonium persulphate.
Class 1 Oxidizer:
• Does not moderately increase the burning rate of combustible materials.
♦ Value used to represent the strength of an acid or base [alkali]:
pH 1-<7: Acid [1 =Strong; 6=Weak]
pH 7: Neutral [i.e. Water]
• pH >7-14: Base [pH 11 = 10 times more corrosive than pH of 10)
• Skin: ph 6-8

PHYSICAL HAZARD
♦ A chemical for which there is evidence that it is a combustible liquid, cryogenic fluid, explosive, flammable (solid, liquid or gas), organic peroxide
(solid or liquid), oxidizer (solid or liquid), oxidizing gas, pyrophoric (solid, liquid or gas), unstable reactive material (solid, liquid or gas) or water-
reactive material (solid or liquid).
PYROPHORIC
+ A chemical with an auto-ignition temperature in air, at or below a temperature of 130oF.
SENSITIZER
+ Chemical that causes a substantial proportion of exposed people or animals to develop an allergic reaction in normal tissue after repeated exposure
to the chemical.
+ Chronic effect/reaction.
STORAGE
♦ The keeping, retention or leaving of hazardous materials in closed containers, tanks, cylinders, or similar vessels; or vessels supplying operations
through closed connections to the vessel.
TOXIC MATERIAL
♦ Materials which produces a lethal dose or lethal concentration as follows:
Oral Ingestion= LD50 = >50 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg -Rat: Median lethal dose [LOSO] of more than 50 milligrams per kilogram, but not more than
500 milligrams per kilogram of body weight when administered orally to albino rats weighing between 200 and 300 grams each.
Skin Absorption = LOSO = >200 mg/kg to 1,000 mg/kg -Rabbit: Median lethal dose [LOSO] of more than 200 milligrams per kilogram of body
weight when administered by continuous contact for 24 hours (or less if death occurs within 24 hours) with the bare skin of albino rabbits
weighing between 2 and 3 kilograms each.
• Inhalation = LC50 = >200 ppm to 2,000 ppm -Rat: Median lethal concentration [LC50] in air of more than 200 ppm but not more than 2,000 ppm
by volume of gas or vapor, or more than 2 milligrams per liter but not more than 20 milligrams per liter of mist, fume or dust, when administered
by continuous inhalation for 1 hour (or less if death occurs within 1 hour) to albino rats weighing between 200 and 300 grams each.
♦ Mixtures of these materials with ordinary materials, such as water, might not warrant classification as toxic.
♦ DOT Class 6.1 Materials.
UNSTABLE (REACTIVE) MATERIAL
♦ A material, other than an explosive, which in the pure state or as commercially produced, will vigorously polymerize, decompose, condense or
become self-reactive and undergo other violent chemical changes, incli.Jding explosion, when exposed to heat, friction or shock, or in the absence of
an inhibitor, or in the presence of contaminants, or in contact with incompatible materials.
♦ Unstable (reactive} materials are subdivided as follows:
• Class 4 Unstable (Reactive):
• Capable of detonation, explosive decomposition or explosive reaction at NTP.
• Materials that are sensitive to mechanical or localized thermal shock at NTP.
Class 3 Unstable (Reactive):

HAZARDOUS MATERIALS DEFINITIONS
18-Laird Technologles -2095 Rutherford Road, Carlsbad, CA
• Capable of detonation, explosive decomposition or explosive reaction but which require a strong initiating source or which must be heated
under confinement before initiation.
• Materials that are sensitive to thermal or mechanical shock at elevated temperature and pressures.
Class 2 Unstable (Reactive):
• Normally unstable and readily undergo violent chemical change but do not detonate.
• Materials that can undergo chemical change with rapid release of energy at NTP.
• Materials that can undergo violent chemical change at elevated temperatures and pressures.
• Class 1 Unstable (Reactive):
• Materials that are normally stable but which can become unstable at elevated temperature and pressures.
USE (MATERIAL)
♦ Placing a material into action, including solids, liquids and gases.
WATER REACTIVE MATERIAL
♦ A material that explodes; violently reacts; produces flammable, toxic or other hazardous gases; or evolves enough heat to cause auto-ignition or
ignition of combustibles upon exposure to water or moisture.
♦ DOT Class 4.3 Materials.
• Class 3 Water Reactive:
■ Materials that react explosively with water without requiring heat or confinement.
