    The document discusses key steps for developing a fire protection plan for storage occupancies: 1) Determine the commodity classification; 2) Identify the storage arrangement such as solid piled, palletized, or rack storage; 3) Determine the storage height and required clearance from sprinklers based on the ceiling type - flat, horizontal, or sloped. The document reviews commodity classes, storage arrangements, and design considerations for sprinkler systems protecting storage according to NFPA 13.

     To effectively prepare a fire protection plan for a storage occupancy, the following steps should be
    followed:
     Determine the commodity classification.
     Identify the storage arrangement.
     Determine the storage height and clearance from the top of storage to sprinklers.
     Develop a protection scheme (automatic sprinkler system).
