Rubber Tire Storage
Intermediate/Advanced – Karl Wiegand, E.I.T.
Protection of rubber tire storage is a difficult task. On top of being made out of plastic, rubber tires inherently present a difficult fire hazard because of their shape. Even in the most tightly laced arrangement rubber tires have large air pockets to feed a fire. Their shape creates a lot of shielding issues, preventing water spray from reaching the fire. This seminar will discuss the special protection arrangements employed by NFPA 13 to protect rubber tire storage.
