• DEFINED IN OBC• DEFINED IN OBC– MAJOR OCCUPANCY:

• MEANS THE PRINCIPAL OCCUPANCY• MEANS THE PRINCIPAL OCCUPANCY FOR WHICH A BUILDING OR PART OF A BUILDING IS USED OR INTENDED TO BE USED, AND IS DEEMED TO INCLUDE SUBSIDIARY OCCUPANCIES THAT ARE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE PRINCIPAL OCCUPANCY.

HOW TO DETERMINE MAJOR OCC’Y CLASSIFICATION

• BUILDING OFFICIAL TO ASK• BUILDING OFFICIAL TO ASK – OWNER / DESIGNER

ASK TO SEE EQUIPMENT LAYOUTS– ASK TO SEE EQUIPMENT LAYOUTS

• BUILDING OFFICIAL TO ASK: – WHAT IS ACTUALLY BEING DONE IN

THE BUILDING?– WHAT IS THE MAIN ACTIVITY?

• WHEN HAVE MULTIPLE USES:• WHEN HAVE MULTIPLE USES:– WOULD ONE OCCUPANCY / USE EXIST

WITHOUT THE OTHER?WITHOUT THE OTHER?

1 WOULD OFFICE BE PRESENT• 1. WOULD OFFICE BE PRESENT WITHOUT THE FACTORY?

• 2. WOULD BOARDROOM BE PRESENT WITHOUT THE OFFICES?

• EXAMPLE OF AUTOMOTIVE SPRAY• EXAMPLE OF AUTOMOTIVE SPRAY BOOTH

SPRAY BOOTH IN A MAACO?– SPRAY BOOTH IN A MAACO?• MAIN PURPOSE: BODYSHOP AND SPRAY

PAINT CARS.• WHAT IS THE MAJOR OCCUPANCY???

– F2 REPAIR GARAGE ??? OR……– F1 SPRAY BOOTH ???

• EXAMPLE OF AUTOMOTIVE SPRAY BOOTH• EXAMPLE OF AUTOMOTIVE SPRAY BOOTH– SPRAY BOOTH IN A AUTOMOBILE DEALERSHIP?

• MAIN PURPOSE: SELL CARS, REPAIR CARS, MAINTENANCE OF CARS.

• PAINTING IS JUST ONE FUNCTION.• DEALERSHIP WOULD STILL BE PRESENT WITHOUT

THE PAINT SPRAY BOOTHTHE PAINT SPRAY BOOTH• SO SPRAY BOOTH IS A SUBSIDIARY USE AND NOT A

MAJOR OCCUPANCY.

STEP 1 – GENERAL MAJOR OCCUPANCY

• FUEL LOAD ANALYSIS• FUEL LOAD ANALYSIS

• NEED:– QUANTITY OF MATERIALS IN BUILDING– WEIGHT OF MATERIALS IN BUILDING– HEAT OF COMBUSTION

• SFPE HANDBOOK• NFPA HANDBOOK

F2 VS F3 (CONT’D)F2 VS F3 (CONT D)

• EITHER CRITERIA WILL TRIGGER• EITHER CRITERIA WILL TRIGGER OCCUPANCY CLASSIFICATION.

• SO NEED TO LOOK AT BOTH• WEIGHT OF COMBUSTIBLE MATERIALS, AND• HEAT OF COMBUSTION OF COMBUSTIBLE
