New Allowable Area Calculator

1/29/2021

After a few weeks of troubleshooting, I'm proud to share a new calculator for separated, mixed occupancy buildings! You enter in the construction type, sprinkler details, occupancies and proposed areas and the calculator will kick out the allowable height area and number of stories for each occupancy. Plus, it calculates the mixed occupancy ratios and tells you the required separations between occupancies!
