Discussing with fellow marine engineers the issue of the distance required between liquid storage tanks of categories A, B, and C under building codes and roads.

Code for Building Design 4.2.9 specifies the fire separation distances between storage tanks for Class A, B, and C liquids and railways as well as roads. Refer to the explanatory notes for that provision; the distance from the road is determined based on the threat posed to the storage tank by sparks from the exhaust pipes of cars and tractors. If the factory is equipped with flame arresters for vehicles, vehicles entering the factory are required to have them installed before entry. Can this method be used to bypass the spacing requirements specified in this rule?
