Are there any spacing requirements for the Class A liquid intermediate tank area attached to a Class A factory building? What is the basis?
The spacing requirements for the intermediate tank groups containing Class A liquids in facilities of Class A type are usually influenced by **local construction regulations, fire safety regulations, as well as the safety regulations specific to the chemicals that may be stored there. Specific regulations may vary slightly depending on the region and specific usage scenario. In China, these regulations can typically be found in relevant **rules and standards** such as the Code for Fire Protection Design of Buildings (GB50016-2014) and the Safety Regulations for the Design and Operation of Hazardous Chemical Warehouses. The specific spacing requirements need to be determined by taking into account factors such as the type of equipment in the tank farm, its material, the properties of the chemicals stored, and whether there are other safety measures in place (such as firewalls). It is recommended to consult professional safety and design engineers during the actual design and implementation process, or to refer directly to the relevant regulatory requirements. .
The Class A liquid intermediate tank area attached to Class A workshops belongs to the plant’s tank group; please refer to Article 5.2.22 of the GB 50160 fire protection standard
For those attached to this workshop, spacing can be disregarded.
