I have been asked this question in class test.

I'm obligated to ask this question of Fire Resisting Materials in section Fire Protection in Building, Carpentry and Joinery of Construction & Building Materials

Answer 1

Correct answer is (c) High

For explanation I would say: High class of fire-load is concerned with the occupancies living in the godowns and similar structure used for bulk storage of NH material and goods. Whereas, moderate class lies between 1.15×10^6 to 2.30×10^6 and it is concerned with retail shops, Emporium, markets, factory, workshops, etc.
