We are planning a commercial building with 2 floors of garage spaces under the building. These floors will be accessible via entryway for automobiles and two cores with elevators and staircases for building users. Elevators and staircases go directly to every floor above ground into open space offices. Of course, the building has it's main entrance in the ground floor.
My question is: Do we have to design permamanent entrway systems in front of the elevator entrances in every floor of the garage?
The problem is, that if we put a 10ft mat in front of the elevator door, it crosses traffic lanes. Does anybody have a similar experience?
