"Common path of egress travel"

[Robert]

The new CBC has a new definition of this and Youtube videos talk about 75' as a maximum (note this is different than maximum travel distance). I cannot find it in Chapter 10 of the code. Can anyone shed some light on this? Thank you.

 

[RLGA]

Not a new definition, but a revised definition. The common path of egress travel has always been a part of the IBC.

See CBC Section 1006.2.1 and Table 1006.2.1.

As cda pointed out, I took a break to publish the book. Now that I'm done with the book, I will get back into writing the articles again. Initially, my plan is to rewrite the old articles to update them to the current codes. However, I've been so busy that I haven't found a break long enough to get myself back into writing mode again. I'm getting there, though.
