Our project is a mixed use building where groundfloor constitutes retail services and floors from one up are for tenants.
Taking into account that this is a CS certification, do we need to install entryway walk-off system in front of each retail shop? I would add information that there is no entrance from the shops to the interior of the building. Only one external door.
My way of thinking is that in this case the retail point is not a part of the Core and Shell (and we don't know who will rent it yet), especially that it's a individual shop without any connection to the building's interior.
Please correct me if I'm wrong...
Thanks!

Alijca, I would differ with you. The retail shops are interior spaces that need to be protected, as with any other part of the building.

Hello Alicja, I know it has been a while, but I have the same situation on one of my projects tight now.
What did you end it up doing? and did you have troubles to obtain the credit?
