7. MATERIAL STORAGE

7 .1. Classification

The type of storage shall be identified by warehouse keeper, according to characteristics and size of materials
and instructions received from Vendors and recorded in a register, to be reported to the Owner/Owner
Representative on a Monthly Basis.
Classification of materials shall be as follows:
Level A
Items classified Level A are those which are exceptionally sensitive to environmental conditions and require
special measures for protection from the effects of high or low temperatures sudden temperature changes,
humidity and vapors, gravitational (g) forces and airborne contamination (rain, snow, dust, dirt, salt, spray,
fumes). The area shall be provided with uniform temperature control to prevent condensation and corrosion.
Housekeeping shall be done regularly following vendor requirements.
The following shall be used, as guidelines for classifying items (Indoors storage):
• Electronic equipment such as computer or other similar devices,
• Special materials, such as chemicals that are sensitive to the environment,
• Materials which required license or special storage conditions (fuel, nuclear source) Level A items shall be
stored under similar conditions than Level B items but with additional
requirements such as temperature and humidity control within specified limits, ventilation
system with filters to provide an atmosphere free of dust and harmful vapors and any other appropriate
requirements.
Level B

Doc. No. : 26076-110-GPP-GPX-00003 Rev No. : 00B
PRESERVATION PROCEDURE
Job No. : 26076 Page No. : 8/22

Items classified Level Bare those which are sensitive to environmental conditions and requires measures for
protection from the effects of extreme temperatures, humidity and vapours (g) forces and airborne
contamination and should not require special protection required by Level A.
Level B items shall be stored within a weather tight and well-ventilated building or equivalent enclosure, not
subject to flooding, the floor shall be paved or equivalent, and well drained. Items shall be placed on pallets
or shoring to permit air circulation. The area shall be provided with uniform temperature control to prevent
condensation and corrosion.
The following shall be used as guidelines for classifying items (Indoors storage):
• Small size equipment (pump...)
• Motors of less than 100 MW, all motors and generators intended for indoor use
• Control and safety valves, valves 2" and below
• Instrument fittings and tubing
• Instruments, electric components
• Cement
• Fittings and flanges 2" and below, bolts and anchors, gaskets
Level C
Items classified Level C are those, which require protection from exposure to airborne contaminants and
forces. Protection from water, vapors and condensation is not as important as Level B items. Provided proper
protection, Level C materials may be stored outdoors.
The following shall be used as guidelines for classifying items (Outdoors storage with protection):
• Large size equipment (pump)
• Large size power motors with resistance's
• Fittings and flanges above 2", valves above 2"
• Stainless steel pipes and plates,
• Cables
• Hot insulation materials
• Paints, gases
Level D
Items classified Level D are those, which are not as sensitive as Level C. These items require superficial
protection against the elements and airborne contamination and protection from physical and mechanical
damage.
Level D items may be stored outdoors in an area marked and designated for storage, which is well drained,
preferably gravel covered and reasonably away from the construction area and traffic, so possibility of damage
is minimized. Items shall be stored on cribbing or equivalent to allow air circulation and to avoid trapping
water. Material shall be covered by blue sheet if those materials will be installed after 2 Months at open
laydown area (refers to Vendor/Manufactures requirements).
The following shall be used as guidelines for classifying items (Outdoors’s storage):
• Carbon steel pipes and plates, non-metallic pipes
• Piping supports, structural steel
• Vessels

Doc. No. : 26076-110-GPP-GPX-00003 Rev No. : 00B
PRESERVATION PROCEDURE
Job No. : 26076 Page No. : 13/22

• Always keep the bags that contain refractory materials on pallets away from wet areas. Do not place pallets
loaded with refractory materials in stale water,
• Do not store pallets, loaded with refractory material bags, where humidity is higher than in normal ambient
conditions,
