It refers to the fire hazards associated with the activity conducted on the premises, and was used to select fire protection levels. The classes were low, ordinary, extra, and extra II. Based on potential sources of ignition and fuel loading, an office might be low, a warehouse of metal goods ordinary, and a paint manufacturer extra (or extra Grade II)

Sprinkler coverage area for extra hazard heads?

Extra hazard occupancies require densities of either 0.30 gpm/sq ft or 0.40 gpm/sq ft, for which the maximum head layout is 100 sq ft per NFPA 13. There are some sprinkler heads in the market that allow coverages up to 196 sq ft with a special listing. Tyco EC-25 and EC-17, and Reliable MBEC-14 are some of the heads that can be used with certain restrictions.


Is church considered nfpa light hazard?

Probably not. NFPA 1 "Hazard of Contents" are defined as High (with 5 levels), Ordinary or Low. The only occupancies that have "low" rating are those primarily for storage of non-combustibles. A church is primarily an assembly occupancy and could not be rated as "low hazard", based upon the risks to numerous human occupants. Types of occupancies other than "storage", even if incidentally storing non-combustibles, would qualify as an "ordinary" hazard, under the theory that some combustible materials will be introduced or hazardous operations conducted, or some psychological factor introduced in case of any fire or other emergency, thus requiring at least "ordinary" fire prevention and means of egress.
