As a former AHJ, I would accept the following.
Get a signed letter from the owner and the architect stating that the tenant improvement spaces will only be occupied by light hazard office spaces and not ordinary hazard spaces like retail, manufacturing, or storage. Inform all parties involved that any deviation from the letter will result in costly upgrades. It will be cheaper for them to plan for ordinary hazard now than to make changes in the future.
They are also limiting the types of tenants who might want to lease the spaces. Good luck, Rick Matsuda
When I’m designing shell space in office buildings; it’s always been to light hazard.
Shell space in a future strip mall or industrial type areas, has always been to ordinary group I or II.
Friends,
I'm in the process of a lengthy plan review of a -13 compliant sprinkler system.
The layout has shown large areas of "shell" space, and the calculations show light hazard, for future TI.
For a long time, perhaps to long to admit, I've had the impression such spaces should be either OH1 or OH2.
Any clarity?
sincerely,
