CEUs/Additional Info

Format: Instant Access Recorded Webinar

CEUs: Based on 1.5 contact hours of training (see CEUs tab for details)

Course Description: This course explores the current state of fire protection for Automatic Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS). A review of several notable fires will be presented to illustrate the importance of such protection. Participants will learn about the provisions in NFPA 13 ‘Standard for the Installation of Sprinkler Systems’ with emphasis on the limited coverage for ASRS operations within the document. The presenter will provide an in-depth review of the provisions of FMDS 8-34 to establish the type of ASRS structure that is being protected and how the type impacts fire protection criteria. This includes mini-load, shuttle-loading, vertically enclosed and top-loading as well as a discussion on the various container types.

Learning Objectives:
• Understand the limited provisions of NFPA 13 with respect to ASRS applications and implications for compliance
• Learn the specific definitions contained in FMDS 8-34 related to container types (trays, open-top vs closed-top, adequately vented vs non-adequately vented, noncombustible, nonexpanded plastic, cellulosic)
• Determine if an ASRS is mini-load, shuttle-loading, vertically enclosed and top-loading
• Navigate the provisions of FMDS 8-34 to locate the appropriate protection and installation criteria for each of the specific ASRS type arrangements
