Egress components

[TKT]

Hello All,

We are having a water park built here in our jurisdiction. I'm hoping someone can give me some guidance on figuring occupant load, so I can get an idea of widths for the egress components. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance for your input.

from IBC Table 1004.1

Pools - 50 square feet per person

Pool Decks - 15 square feet per persons

All areas are gross

Thanks Coug Dad,

Guess I kind of missed that one.

Similar to an airport where it is necessary to draw imaginary lines between circulation space and more concentrated uses, there will probably be a need to differentiate between a pool deck and circulation space, while also providing for queuing at service windows. A comprehensive fire safety and evacuation plan should be prepared based on IFC 404.
