I am wondering which table I use to determine the common path of egress travel for a mezzanine per the 2018 IBC. Per 505.2 A mezzanine "shall be considered a portion of the story below." Given that would I then use table 1006.2.1 Spaces with One Exit or Exit Access Doorway to determine maximum common path of egress travel that would allow for a single exit? The building is otherwise a single story building. Otherwise would I need to look to 1006.3.3 Stories with One Exit or Access to One Exit? For a storage occupancy this would be the difference of 100' vs 75'. Thank You!
 
If the entire first story only has one exit, then you are limited to Table 1006.3.3(2).
