My mixed-use building contains space types that aren’t listed in the Base Ratios table in the Reference Guide. How do I calculate the base ratio for my project?

I don’t have a copy of the Transportation Planning Handbook. How do I determine the base ratio for my project?

Which building type does data centre belong?

There's no such a building type as data centre in the base ratio table, I was wondering if it should be "data processing, telemarketing", or "general light industrial, industrial park, and manufacturing". Any idea?

I would use light industrial or maybe warehousing. Data processing is more of an office function and assumes densely occupied, the others are more accurate to data center by assuming low occupancy per square footage.

Thank you Emily. It makes sense to me.
