NC-2009 PIf3: Occupant and Usage Data
Hi all,
What level of detail do you generally use for completing the space usage type table? Do you write down room by room? Do you bundle up rooms by floor? Do you bundle up rooms by type (corridors, offices, meeting rooms, toilets)?
Thanks in advance

Noriko,
I believe the intent of this form is to identify regularly occupied and non- regularly occupied spaces and separate them to verify consistency among the credits.
My projects have normally been residential projects so I generally have the following space types:
Lobby
Lounge
Mechanical (bundle)
Circulation (bundle)
Super's Office
Fitness Room
Residential Units - Because residential units can be further categorized into Regularly occupied and Non-regularly occupied spaces, for this value I have the architect complete the Daylight and Views Excel spreadsheet provided by LEED and put that value under regularly occupied area. For the total square footage of residential units, the architect provides that as well which is all of the units added together.
I like breaking this table down as much as possible because 1) It clarifies what your thresholds really are ( for example IEQ 8.1 and 8.2 ) 2) You pay for review per square foot therefore it really is important that these values are accurate to have your client's best interest in mind.
