From the old site, I remember seeing a thread that addressed the first question, but I cannot find that old thread.
1. For a staircase / stairtower / elevator, do you use the area in determining occupant load (for egress, plumbing fixure requirements, outside air requirements, etc.)?
2. Assuming a 2,000 sq ft building with 100 sq ft for toilet rooms, is the occupant load based on 1000 sq ft for egress, but only 1,900 sq ft for plumbing fixtures and outside air requirements? I know toilet rooms have their own exhaust rate.
Thanks
