I would think that on the floor may help. But not sure of that.. R/ Matt Matthew J. Willis, CWBSP, C.E.T.

The roof has ESFR sprinklers. The racks are protected with standard in-rack sprinklers below plywood barriers. There is no storage above the topmost barrier. Question: The tenant wants to have the products (at the lowest level) in cardboard boxes / bins that are open at the top and one side (that facing the aisle). The requirement for ESFR sprinklers prohibits open top containers. Does containers refer only to the individual packaging of the product? Or also to the bins where the products are placed? If it applies to the bins also, would the ESFR requirement (of no open top containers) also apply to the standard in-rack sprinklers? Thanks, Tony
