2013 CBC Section 11B-403.5.1 vs. Table 1018.2 Width of access vs. egress

[Keith]

Hi,

In CBC 11B-403.5.1, exception2 states that more than 10 occupants in corridor requires 44"

In table 1018.2, for say a B occupancy less than 50 occupants 36" is min. width of corridor.

Which one do/can I follow?

Thanks

Which one do/can I follow?

The most restrictive. If you have over 10, you need 44".

Hallway and corridor width requirements depend on the number of people using the

area. When 10 or more people use hallways or corridors in buildings such as

businesses, churches, or schools, the required width of the hallway/corridor is 44

inches wide. (CCR, Section 11B-403.5.1 Exception 2.) Corridors and hallways serving

an occupant load of less than 10 shall not be less than 36 inches wide. (CCR, Section

11B-403.5.1.)
