Intent

Intent 1:

To remove limits to the height of storage of products listed in Table 3.2.3.2. [as stated in Sentence 3.2.3.2.(1)] if certain measures are taken [building is sprinklered and storage is in racks].

This is to limit the probability that:

  • stored products will collapse prematurely in a fire situation, which could lead to the spread of fire, which could lead to damage to the building, and
  • a fire will not be suppressed or controlled, which could lead to the spread of fire to other parts of the building, which could lead to damage to the building.
