If flammable gas is generated in a certain room within a factory building, and I open that room to create a separation, can the fire classification of the building be set aside from Category A? ? ?

No, safety matters cannot be taken lightly

No, safety is a red line that must not be crossed

That room is now open, which means that flammable gases are being released into the atmosphere. It has also been separated from the other areas by firewalls; so does that still mean the entire factory needs to be classified as Category A? ? Can’t the rank be lowered? ? Is there a legal basis for this? ? ?

Specific requirements are given on page 9 of the \"Code for Fire Protection Design of Building Structures\" GB50016-2014, and on page 7 of the \"Code for Fire Protection Design of Petrochemical Enterprises\" GB50160-2008. If the area is less than 5% of the area of this floor, it can be classified according to the lower fire hazard category. The “Construction Code” refers to the ratio of building area, while the “Petroleum and Chemicals Code” refers to the ratio of equipment floor area.

Poor ventilation can easily lead to the accumulation of flammable gases

That room is already open, so the flammable gases are being released into the atmosphere; ventilation should work fine
