equally sized, spaced at 180 degrees (3.14 rad), and unobstructed. Each opening shall have
a total free area of not less than 1/2 square inch per pound (7.1 cm2/kg) of stored fuel capac-
ity and not less than a total free area of 10 square inches (64.5 cm2).
2. Ventilation opening(s) shall be provided at oor level and shall have a total free area of not
less than ½” square inch per pound (7.1 cm2/kg) of stored fuel capacity and not less than a
total free area of 10 square inches (64.5 cm2). If ventilation openings at oor level are in a
sidewall, there shall be at least two openings. The bottom of the openings shall be at oor
level and the upper edge no more than 5 inches (127 mm) above the oor. The openings
