Emergency Room Code blue.rar
An office environment is the least regulated occupancy type because occupants typically are familiar with their surroundings and will know the best way to exit in an emergency. However, the code requirements for these spaces can become more complicated if additional occupancy types come into play. It is easier than one would think for an office design to quickly turn into more than just one occupancy type. In a recent office environment project, our design evolved into one that included the office space, an assembly space and a parking garage. Adding these additional occupancy types complicates the code requirements because there are now different expectations on how occupants will respond in an emergency.
In this scenario, the code requires us to either separate these occupancies or do something extra to ensure occupants can exit the building in a reasonable amount of time. That meant we needed to make each different occupancy type separate from the others. We accomplished this by adding a one hour rated floor slab between the different types so each section would withstand a fire emergency for at least one hour and allow any occupants to safely exit the building. 2ff7e9595c
