I have a middle school building where the occupant load calculates out over 500 students per floor(2 story building). They are required to have 3 exits from each floor. They are only providing 2. The school district states they will not have over 250 students per floor based on total students allowed per school. The question is could you reduce the occupant load requirements for the building? We are currnetly using the 2009 IBC. I have come across sec 1004.1.1 exception. Please let me know what you think
Thanks
