  19. Strategy 2 Control of Vapours

  20. Strategy 3 Control of Quantity

  21. Strategy 3 Control of Quantity Equations: Little q (actual quantity in litres) Big Q (maximum quantity) An Example: Assembly qI/30 + qII/150 + qIIIA/600 < 1

  22. Strategy 3 Control of Quantity Assembly Maximum Quantities Stored in building or single fire compartment not less than 1 hr. fire resistance rating: • Max. quantities of any single class of liquid: 30L Class I 150L Class II 600L Class IIIA

  23. Strategy 3 Control of Quantity Assembly Maximum Quantities Two or more different liquid classes follow equation: qI/30 + qII/150 + qIIIA/600 < 1 Example One: 10/30 + 100/150 + 400/600 1.67 Example Two: 10/30 + 40/150 + 240/600 1.0
