The presentation provides examples and descriptions of different industrial occupancies, following the definitions of the Ontario Building Code and the Ontario Fire Code. The presentation also details a method of calculating the density of combustible contents based on weight and energetic potential, for medium and low hazard industrial occupancies.

Presented by Melinda Amador, P. Eng., from CodeNext Inc., this presentation focuses on prescriptive requirements that impact the design of spaces where flammable and combustible liquids are present. The presentation provides examples and descriptions of flammable and combustible liquids and provides an introduction to the application of the Ontario Fire Code, specifically Section 4.1 and Section 4.2, for various occupancy applications.

The course includes commentary that extends beyond the prescriptive language of the code to describe the reasons for certain design requirements and the fundamental physical properties associated with flammable and combustible liquids.
