2017 LA City Fire Code > 32 High-Piled Combustible Storage > 3203 Commodity Classification > 3203.7 Classification of Plastics > 3203.7.4 Limited Quantities of Group A Plastics in Mixed Commodities
JUMP TO FULL CODE CHAPTER

Figure 3203.7.4 shall be used to determine the quantity of Group A plastics allowed to be stored in a package or carton or on a pallet without increasing the commodity classification.

  1. This figure is intended to determine the commodity classification of a mixed commodity in a package, carton or on a pallet where plastics are involved.
  2. The following is an example of how to apply the figure: A package containing a Class III commodity has 12-percent Group A expanded plastic by volume. The weight of the unexpanded Group A plastic is 10 percent. This commodity is classified as a Class IV commodity. If the weight of the unexpanded plastic is increased to 14 percent, the classification changes to a high-hazard commodity.
