Hazardous Occupancy - Group H -
(California Building Code)
Group H occupancies include buildings or structures, or portions
thereof, that involve the manufacturing, processing, generation
or storage of materials that constitute a high fire, explosion,
or health hazard. There are eight divisions in this Group:
-
1. Division 1 - Occupancies with a quantity
of material in the building exceeding regulation set limits
and that present a high explosion hazard, such as blasting
agents, fireworks, black powder, certain oxidizers and detonatable
unstable (reactive) materials, and other materials (refer
to Code for more details).
-
2. Division 2 - Occupancies where combustible
dust is manufactured, used, or generated in such a manner
that concentrations and conditions creates fire or explosion
potential, or occupancies where materials exceeding regulation
set limits present a moderate explosion hazard or a hazard
from accelerated burning, such as some organic peroxides,
pyrophoric gases, flammable or oxidizing gases, some nondetonatable
unstable (reactive) materials, and other materials (refer
to Code for more details).
-
3. Division 3 - Occupancies where flammable
solids, other than combustible dust, are manufactured, used
or generated, or occupancies where materials exceeding regulation
set limits present a high physical hazard, such as some organic
peroxides and oxidizers, pyrophoric liquids or solids, flammable
solids in storage, flammable or oxidizing cryogenic fluids,
and other materials (refer to Code for more details).
-
4. Division 4 - Repair garages not classified
as Group S, Division 3 Occupancies.
-
5. Division 5 - Aircraft repair hangars not
classified as Group S, Division 5 Occupancies, and heliports.
-
6. Division 6 - Semiconductor fabrication
facilities and comparable research and development areas in
which hazardous production materials (HPM) are used and the
aggregate quantity of materials exceeds those set by regulations.
Such facilities and areas shall be designed and constructed
following a different set of regulations.
-
7. Division 7 - Occupancies having quantities
of materials in excess of those set by regulations, and that
are health hazards, such as corrosives (except stationary
lead-acid battery systems), toxic and highly toxic materials,
irritants, sensitizers, and other health hazards (refer to
Code).
-
8. Division 8 - Laboratories and similar areas
used for scientific experimentation or research having quantities
of materials not in excess of those set by regulations, and
not otherwise classified as Group B, Division 2 Occupancies
(refer to Code for more details).
