Given: 5A Const, 4 story R-2 Apt building with a rooftop A-3 assembly area. 2 exits, fireplace, built in BBQs and an occupant load of about 150 or so.
Is the A occupancy allowed at this level?
If the A-3 is an accessory occupancy, IBC 508.2.3 requires that story height for accessory occupancies may not exceed table 503 without increases in section 504. So it couldn't be located on the 3rd or 4th story. BUT the roof isn't a story, so......???
