How many exits would folks consider for the following layout:
The front of the store has two sets of entry/egress doors spaced approximately five feet apart. Between these two sets of doors, there is 242 inches for egress.
There are two additional exits separated per the overall diagonal separation, each providing 33 inches of egress width.
If the occupant load is over 1,000, four means of egress are required. Are there four provided? If so, would you still require the remaining two to be sized to carry 50% of the required egress capacity?
I see it as four means of egress, but if the main two egress doors become disabled, the remaining two means of egress do not provide for fifty percent of the required egress.
Anyone else have other ideas?
