NFPA #30 2024 Section 16.6.2  Horizontal barriers of plywood having a minimum 
thickness of 3/8" or sheet metal of minimum 22 gauge thickness shall be 
installed in accordance with figures ect.

We just had one of our OHS guys say we cannot use plywood based on the 
following, this is a project we did about 20 years ago.


5.34 Combustible materials

Except for packaging used to contain flammable or combustible liquids, 
combustible shelves, racks and other materials are not permitted inside a 
flammable or combustible liquids storage room or storage cabinet unless 
required as part of a fire separation.
Has anyone come across this, not sure why this is in the regulations.

Thank You
