Re: Water heater in a garage, protection
Ted, here is a diagram that I stole here.
I just talked to McKinney Building Official about this and he said they look at it on a case by case basis and the protection could be an alcove, curb, etc. It is left to the judgment of the individual inspector.

That part of the code is not very high on their priority list, IMO, judging by what I see in all the new construction around here.
