Identify programming requirements for special-use spaces such as high-volume copy rooms (40,000 pages or more per month), laboratories, art rooms, chemical storage, housekeeping areas, and other spaces that may expose occupants to hazardous materials.
- Remember that if you need additional ductwork for designated exhaust systems for these areas, you’ll need to allow space for it.
- Include deck-to-deck partitions or hard-lid ceilings, and self-closing doors, in these spaces.
- Battery banks, such as uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), have to be segregated from other use areas.
