Interpretation on door infringement on egress width

[Ryan Schultz]

Is it only the 'B' dimension that needs to satisfy 1005.7.1, or does 'A' need to be accommodated as well?

1005.7.1 Doors
Doors in any position shall not reduce the required width by more than one-half.

The bottom door B???

Is this a hotel?? And doors to individual units?

 

[Ryan Schultz]

It's a multifamily... unit entry doors.

 

[Ryan Schultz]

I can't swing the door inside the unit, because we can't accommodate the maneuver clearances inside.

 

[cda]

Not sure if it meets code

Swing door B out but opposite direction??

To the right

And if possible can it swing past 45?

 

[cda]

Thinking one of the unit layouts entry location needs to change

 

[TheCommish]

Dancing with doors and walls always bad idea.

 

[steveray]

I would call the South door a violation of the West doors width...

Talk about tight, existing or to be built?
