I am working on a condo complex where the ground floor is individual parking garages (some shared by 2 units) and storage closets. The walls and floors are concrete with no interconnection between the areas. The ceiling is wood frame with 1 hr rated sheetrock. The space is unheated and will be protected by a dry system. A 1950 sqft design area will encompass 3-1/2 units. Would it be acceptable to use the Room Design Method in 11.2.3.3 (2002)? I've never applied this with a dry system before, so I am a little unsure, I didn't see anything that says you can't, but I want to be sure I am not missing something.
