Battery wholesaler wants to store batteries in racks over 8 ft. high.
2009 IFC
Section 2703.11 gets specific for group M and S
Section 2703.11.1 allows 975 gallons of corrosives per control area
Section 2703.11.3.2 allows 8 ft. height for storage
Question: 1)If you want to go higher than 8 ft. in a S occupancy, would it then have to be in a H occupancy no matter how many gallons of corrosive?
It seems strange that a B, E, or I, for example you can have up to the MAQ of 500 gallons and have no height limit. 2) Why not a S with 500 gallons with no height limit.
