The credit language states "Buildings must have at least one main stair that enables occupants to travel between the building entrance floor(s), occupant’s own destination floor and common use floors." There is also mention providing access to at least 50% of tenant occupant floors.
We have a three story university building that has an open atrium stair connecting levels 1 and 2 and then additional egress stairs that connect 1 through 3 and the mechanical penthouse.
Would the open atrium stair meet the intent of the credit or would one of the egress stairs need to comply as well?
