NC-2009 IEQc8.2: Daylight and Views—Views
Hello,
Anybody knows if a Foyer in a Hotel (mainly a hall to access 3 meting rooms with a "coffe and cookies" table for the meeting room users) would count as occupied space?
Anyone knows as well for a Laundry?
Thanks for your help

For Exemplary Performance, what is a View Factor?
Does furniture need to be included in floor plan when completing views calculations?
What is considered a regularly occupied space?
What can I do if my prescriptive method calculation results in a value less than 0.150?

If it's primarily a circulation area, the foyer would not be considered regularly occupied space. As for the laundry room, it would depend on whether it gets sporadic use, like a storage room, or if there are laundry staff who do most of their work in that room and would thus be their regular "workstation."
See comments below on the definition of "regularly occupied areas" from May 2011.
