Hello Everyone,
I have been asked to review a proposed 2nd medical office for exiting. This is a QC review within our office, not a building department review and this is a programmatic layout so the rooms don't show doors. One of the staff mentioned that they thought the elevator lobby was an issue. The owner would like public access to the waiting area, plan south and personnel access, via fob, plan north. The question was after hours exiting from the elevator lobby by someone who would get off the elevator after hours and be trapped if something happened at that time with the elevator shutdown.
I think this is a reach, but I've had AHJ's overthink some of these things before.
See attached plan. Any opinions would be appreciated.
Thanks, Jeff
