I am trying to determine the occupant load from table 1004.1.1 for an indoor sports facility (Using the 2009 IBC). The facility will be a 180' x 300' (54,000 s.f.) clear span metal building used for indoor sports activities such as a soccer field. What "Floor Area Per Occupant" should I use? There isn't a specific "Function" to calculate the occupant load. The closest one is Assembly Standing Space but that would give me an occupant load of 10,800, using 5 net per s.f., which is absurd. I've read that you can use 50 Gross for "Participation Sport" but can that be justified since it is not in the table?
