If a room in the factory building uses Class A liquid pipelines or combustible gas pipelines to connect to a reactor, should the fire hazard level of that room be classified as Class A? (Everything else in that room consists of ordinary materials.) Does this mean that the entire factory building must then be classified as Class A? ? ?
The room should be classified as Category A, while for the factory building, the area needs to be taken into consideration. If the area of the room accounts for less than 5% of the total factory area, there is no need to follow Class A design standards.
It’s completely unreasonable to classify an entire factory building as a Class A facility just because it has a pipeline for Class A liquids or gases. May I ask, which regulation states this? And in the case of a gas pipeline being installed in a residential building, does that mean the entire building is classified as Class A? ?
Sir, which article has it? ? This is way too strict
According to Article 3.1.1 of the Building Code GB50016-2014, “if the proportion of production areas with a high fire risk in a given floor or fire compartment is less than 5%, the fire risk can be determined based on those areas with a lower risk.” The connection to gas pipelines is for use as fuel; typical examples of such areas are boiler rooms. According to GB50041-2008, the fire risk associated with boiler rooms is classified as Category E. Furthermore, according to Table 3.1.1 of the Building Code, various types of production facilities that use gases or liquids as fuel or for other purposes are classified as Category D. The gas pipelines mentioned by the property owner, which are used as “reactors” in chemical reactions, are not intended as fuel; therefore, they should be classified as belonging to Category A. The fire risk of such facilities should be determined in accordance with the aforementioned regulations, taking into account the area of the fire compartments.
