Are parking garages considered to be ancillary to the main use or would be considered to be a separate occupancy?

Parking garage is S-2 occupancy. It could be part of a mixed occupancy building.

You got it! It's good for this exam to really understand occupancies and how mixed uses work. Ching's Building Codes Illustrated and the actual IBC were most helpful for me.
