Trust NFPA 30's protocols to minimize the hazards of flammable and combustible liquids. Adopted by most states and enforceable under OSHA, NFPA 30: Flammable and Combustible Liquids Code presents the best guidance on the safe storage, handling, and use of dangerous liquids. It provides the criteria you need to design facilities for better protection, comply with sprinkler rules, and use safe operating practices. Changes and additions in the 2003 edition affect: * Siting of storage tanks * Spill control, normal breather vents, and emergency relief vents for storage tanks * Design of liquids storage cabinets, inside storage areas, and liquid warehouses * Sprinkler design rules for storage of all types of liquids * And more When you work with flammable and combustible liquids, even a seemingly minor oversight or mistake can have major repercussions. Don't compromises safety--insist on NFPA 30!

Presents the latest electrical regulation code that is applicable for electrical wiring and equipment installation for all buildings, covering emergency situations, owner liability, and procedures for ensuring public and workplace safety.

A survey of manufacturing and installation methods, standards, and specifications of factory-made steel storage tanks and appurtenances for petroleum, chemicals, hydrocarbons, and other flammable or combustible liquids. It chronicles the trends towards aboveground storage tanks, secondary containment, and corrosion-resistant underground steel storage systems.
