| | IS AN EXTENSION OR INCREASE IN FLOOR AREA, NUMBER OF |

| | 2A) SHEET A1 INDICATES THIS IS A CHANGE OF OCCUPANCY. |
| | IF SO PLEASE INDICATE WHAT THE CHANGE OF OCCUPANCY IS? |
| | ADDITIONAL INFORMATION IS REQUIRED. IT WOULD APPEAR |
| | THAT THIS IS STILL AN A2 OCCUPANCY BUT THE CHANGE IS A |
| | DENSER (MORE OCCUPANTS) AND THE CREATION OF A NEW |
| | UNISEX RESTROOM. PLEASE CORRECT THE FLOOR PLAN WITH THE |
| | REMOVAL OF CHANGE IN OCCUPANCY. PLEASE PROVIDE WHAT |

| | DOES ALLOW EGRESS THROUGH INTERVENING SPACES AS LONG AS |
| | THE EXIT ACCESS SHALL NOT PASS THROUGH A ROOM THAT CAN |
| | BE LOCKED TO PREVENT EGRESS, THIS ROOM IS BEING |
| | DECLARED AN OFFICE. IT WOULD APPEAR THE LIFE SAFETY |
| | CODES NFPA MAYBE THE STRICTER OF THE 2 CODES. WHEN |
| | THERE IS A DISCREPANCY IN THE CODES, THE STRICTER OF |
| | THE 2 CODES SHALL RULE. |
| | |
| | 2C) THE OTHER ISSUE THAT THE FIRE SAFETY CODE (NFPA) |
| | WILL RULE ON IS THE WIDTH OF THE EGRESS PATH FOR THE |
| | OCCUPANT LOAD DECLARED. THE 2017 FBC-B GIVES UNDER THE |
| | SECTION 1005.3.2 SIZING OR REQUIRED CAPACITY BASED ON |
| | THE OCCUPANT LOAD, FACTOR OF 0.2 INCH PER OCCUPANT. |
| | SECTION 1018.2 GIVES MINIMUM CLEAR WITH FOR B & M |
| | OCCUPANCIES. SECTION 1018.2 AISLES IN ASSEMBLY SPACES, |
| | AISLES AND AISLE ACCESS BUT THIS IS FOR TABLE AND |
| | CHAIRS, NOT FOR STANDING ONLY. AGAIN THE FIRE SAFETY |
| | CODES (NFPA) WILL BE THE STRICTER OF THE 2 CODES AND |
