Regarding the fire separation distance for factory buildings
Thread Content
When new units are constructed within a petrochemical plant area, and the two Class A units are located in separate buildings, which standard should be applied for determining the fire separation distance between these two buildings? Is it the 30 meters specified in GB50160, or the 12 meters specified in GB50016? Please share some suggestions.
The plant areas of petrochemical enterprises must comply with the 30-meter requirement specified for petrochemical industries
Reason 1: Since it is a petrochemical enterprise, it follows petrochemical regulations. Reason 2: It is implemented in accordance with stricter requirements, hence the petrochemical regulations.
First, clarify the equipment and the factory building before discussing the spacing; moreover, determine the area of the fire compartments first before talking about fire separation distances! A petrochemical facility can cover an area of tens of thousands of square meters; it is only between such areas that fire separation distances are required. To make arbitrary statements about these distances without considering the actual area covered is a sign of ignorance and recklessness – and that’s how the market gets ruined~~~
If it is a factory building with structures, the construction regulations apply; if the equipment is installed outdoors, the petrochemical regulations apply
A factory that follows only one set of standards will definitely follow 50160
GB 51283 Fine Chemicals!
That’s right; first, figure out whether it’s the same device. It is also necessary to determine the fire hazard level of these two factories. If Class A equipment is located within a factory, it depends on the proportion of its area to determine whether the factory itself falls under the Class A category; in such cases, the fire separation distance from the outer edges of the factory building shall be determined in accordance with the petrochemical industry regulations
