Answer: B

Explanation:

Materials that will not easily deteriorate, are generally stored in open or fairly covered areas

(stockyard). The materials are usually in bulk, like steel plates or coils casting, timber coal, steel barrels, cable drums, piping, lampposts, lorries, etc.

Stockyards are open or semi-covered areas that are used for the following:

– Bulk loose or packaged materials

– Bulky or oversized items that may be difficult to move inside

– Materials that may require specialised handling, loading or unloading

Below image shows the example of a stockyard that stores loose coal and its handling system.
