Abstract: The article discusses the design features of high-rise warehouses as an important component of logistics chains for product movement. It provides a classification of warehouses, their design features, and regulatory documents governing their operation. The article also addresses the issue of fire hazards in high-rise warehouses, taking into account the specific characteristics of fire development and its elevated rank. The article demonstrates the potential for fire containment and suppression using automatic water-based fire extinguishing systems with forced activation. It establishes that the problem of fire suppression in high-rise warehouses requires a comprehensive approach, considering both the operation of automatic systems and the subsequent actions of arriving fire departments. The main provisions of the fire-extinguishing plan for a high-rise warehouse and the features of fire-extinguishing tactics are presented. It is concluded that it is expedient to develop a special regulatory document – recommendations for extinguishing fires in high-rise warehouses, and its structure is presented.
