Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to present the commodity classification method of domestic rack-type warehouse for sprinkler system design. Method: On-site surveys and classification criteria of the NFPA, FMDS, EN and Japan were analysed and ISO 12949 test were carried out with proposed each classification commodity. Result: Based on a heat of combustion, a classification method for extra high, high, medium and low are proposed. Conclusion: Sprinkler design criteria to secure the maximum extinguishing strength for each class of commodity need to be applied.
