Building Layout - Egress from 1st fl Corridor?

Postby introversed » Wed Apr 12, 2017 10:23 am

Hi,

NCARB's passing solution shows a double door entrance at the lobby, and an 2nd egress directly from the other end of the corridor (next to the exit stair which achieves the same thing).

Are these two things necessary? Or should I provide less?

Both are redundant.

Nothing in the program states occupancy load, and no other egress doors are doubled... unnecessary.
The stair exit can serve as the egress at that end of the building... unnecessary.

NCARB's "passing" solutions contain minor errors, however it is not known whether those items are considered minor errors or not.
