    This document provides commentary and notes for tables containing typical spacing distances between buildings, process equipment, and property lines. The tables are based on potential fire and explosion concerns but spacing may be reduced or increased depending on site-specific hazards and risks. Distances are measured horizontally between closest edges. Closer spacing than shown in the tables is allowed if appropriate risk reduction measures are considered.

    Appendix A.

    Typical Spacing Tables

    The following comments should be applied to the Tables contained in Appen-


    dix A.
    NA = Not applicable. No measurable distance is appropriate.
    NM = No minimum spacing requirement has been established for rea-
    sons of fire protection. Use engineering judgment for spacing and
    provide access for fire fighting and maintenance.
    S = Spacing is based on security needs and not on fire, explosion, or
    toxic concerns.
    CAUTION:
    1. Tables A through E include typical spacing values. Explanatory text
    is included in Chapters 5 and 6.
    2. The typical spacing distances cited in Tables A through E are based
    on potential fire consequences (explosions and toxic concerns may
    require greater spacing). Variations in spacing may be warranted
    based on site-specific hazards and risks. Distances may be reduced
    or increased based on risk analysis or when additional layers of pro-
    tection are implemented (such as: fire protection or emergency shut-
    down systems).
    3. These tables are not applicable to enclosed process units.
    Miscellaneous typical spacing values are included in Table E.
    NOTES:
    1. Distances are measured horizontally.
    2. Typical horizontal distances between buildings, process equipment,
    and property lines are shown and apply to the closest edge to closest
    edge dimensions.
    3. Where unusual conditions require closer spacing, appropriate risk
    reduction measures should be considered.
