Will be detailed in the next presentation (Stuart Lloyd)
Future revision 2 of EN 12 845 : KEY POINTS SECTION 3 : DESIGN CRITERIA
Design density and area of operation linked to hazard class + ceiling height
Design section for storage will include existing and new protection tables + new HHS 5 classification.
