NFPA 307 Standard for the Construction and Fire Protection of Marine Terminals, Piers, and Wharves 2016 Edition This edition of NFPA 307, Standard for the Construction and Fire Protection of Marine Terminals, Piers, and Wharves, was prepared by the Technical Committee on Marine Terminals. I

31、t was issued by the Standards Council on May 26, 2015, with an effective date of June 15, 2015, and supersedes all previous editions. This edition of NFPA 307 was approved as an American National Standard on June 15, 2015. Origin and Development of NFPA 307 This document originated in 1980 from the

32、combination of the 1967 edition of NFPA 307, Recommendations for the Operation of Marine Terminals, and the 1975 edition of NFPA 87, Standard for the Construction and Protection of Piers and Wharves. NFPA 87 was withdrawn by the Standards Council in October 1980, and the 1980 edition of NFPA 307 was

33、 retitled Standard for the Construction and Fire Protection of Marine Terminals, Piers, and Wharves. NFPA 87 was rst initiated by the Committee on Piers and Wharves from 1915 to 1925, and was adopted by NFPA in 1925. Revised editions were adopted in 1931, 1935, 1954, 1963, 1968, 1971, and 1975. NFPA

34、 307 was rst adopted by NFPA in 1951. Revised editions were adopted in 1961, 1967, 1980 (when NFPA 87 was incorporated), 1985, 1990, and 1995. The 2000 edition of NFPA 307 consisted of amendments to the 1995 edition. The Technical Committee identied a need for the standard to reect current marine te

35、rminal operating procedures and updated methods of material handling and storage. In 2005, the entire standard was revised in accordance with the Manual of Style for NFPA Technical Committee Documents. Under design criteria for sprinkler systems, the Technical Committee changed “Extra Hazard (Group

36、1)” to “Group A Plastics.” The Committee amended re protection requirements for marine terminal buildings where specic cargoes other than Group A plastics, or hazardous materials, are handled or stored. The 2011 edition revised the denition of hazardous material and the requirements for wood and unp

37、rotected substructures and for piles and stiffening members of piers and wharves. The standard permitted the use of corrosion-resistant types of pipes, tting, hangers, or listed protective corrosion- resistant coatings on xed extinguishing system components that are subject to corrosion in a marine

38、environment. The standard also recommended consideration of alternative hydrant spacing in locations where standard spacing is impractical due to container-handling equipment. In the 2016 edition, the Technical Committee has made a point to reference NFPA 5000, Building Construction and Safety Code,

39、 wherever possible, particularly for requirements related to the design, materials, and workmanship of pier and wharf construction and other structures within the facility. However, the Committee acknowledges that an AHJ could consider other codes or standards when approving marine terminal construc

40、tion plans. Under the construction requirements in NFPA 307, the committee has added a requirement for passenger terminals. Previously, that section of the standard addressed only cargo-handling facilities. The new criterion mandates consideration of health and safety aspects for cruise ships and pa
