Exactly what this source supports
These are the only claims this record is used to carry anywhere in the library.
IRMI's glossary states that these categories were established by Insurance Services Office, Inc. (ISO) in its Commercial Lines Manual for purposes of developing rates for insuring commercial property based on susceptibility to damage by fire.

Reviewer notes
Fetched today and both claims confirmed. This is a secondary glossary entry describing an ISO scheme. The ISO Commercial Lines Manual is a licensed publication and was not fetched, so the prose attributes the six categories to IRMI's description rather than stating them as read from the manual itself.
