Beyond the Scope of the Codes III

[FM William Burns]

Why do these always happen to me????

Through a little investigation work and questioning over at the other place I learn of this 300,000 s.f. warehouse and find it completely full of this stuff:

Oh...it's OK FMWB it's sprinkled.......

Yea but not good enough

They called me to come in tomorrow and see how they lowered everything to 5-8 foot and have 4-8' aisles everywhere I indicated. Hope it does not look like:

 

[Builder Bob]

Not sure how long this picture will remain in place... the others BTS pictures were turned off quickly...... just a heads up FM

 

[FM William Burns]

Thanks BB.... turned off by what?

at least I'm providing a story with the photos

 

[ewenme]

Why were the pictures in the other thread turned off? Who turned them off? The pictures tell the story. What gives?

 

[Insurance Engineer]

Welcome to my world ..... see this ALL the time.

AND I hear from the buildoing occupant the AHJ did not say anything the last time the were on site.

THANKS FM for picking up on this.

I believe it was an error on my part. I was uploading pictures to my provider and deleting others as I went in record speed and probably didn't leave them on the provider's server in a separate album. I'll re-do when time permits. The others Part I is a liquid storage warehouse that took two years to finally get compliance using an alternative method design and the other Part II was the place that dumped this stuff into this warehouse.

Well, it is a 300,000 s.f. warehouse. They didn't get all the solid, unstable piles lowered with aisles to meet their existing sprinkler scheme. Made good headway and I'm looking for other buildings where it may be hiding. I gave them until 8-31 to finish....man I'm way too nice

I love working in a small jurisdiction where this type of facility does not exist

 

[Mac]

Me too, MT - our biggest warehouse is about 1/20th that size.

What is all that junk?

 

[FM William Burns]

MT, we are a small community of 14,000. I will let them know that available storage exists in MT

Mac, This is foam scrap and used for under lay chipping or padding for football fields and tracks.
