The minimum design density for protecting palletized storage of empty wood crates on wood pallets up to a certain height is determined by considering the combustibility of the materials and the configuration of the storage. A design density of 0.20 gpm/ft² is often recommended for such light hazard commodities to provide adequate water distribution over the fire area.
References: NFPA 13 guidelines for calculating design densities based on the type of commodity, storage arrangement, and height of storage.
