Hi,
I have a question regarding the plumbing fixture calculation. Let's say you have a total occupant load of 300, and Plumbing Code requires 1 water closet per 100 for both men and women. Assume the men and women are evenly divided. So number of WC required for men or women is (300/2)/100 = 150/100 = 1.5. Now, should we round this number up or down? I think it should be round down because it says "1 per 100". But some people think it should round up if the digit in the tenth place is >=5, and round down if it's <=4. What do you think? I've seen similar questions in the exam and want to make sure which way is correct. Thanks!
