NC-2009 IEQc6.2:Controllability of Systems—Thermal Comfort

Basis for Individual Controls Count

For the individually occupied spaces in a typical office building, how close to the FTE occupant number being used in PI Form 3 does the total building occupant number being used for this credit need to be? In other words, should the 50% of occupants having their own controls be based off of that exact PI Form 3 FTE number? Or can it be somewhat less, since everyone in a typical office building may not have their own assigned workspace?

They do not need to exactly match because - just as you state - there are reasons why they wouldn't logically always be the same. Reviewers should go into their review understanding this. However, if they were vastly different that might raise some red flags. Good luck!
