Flag explanation

The project clause proposes a 40-inch (3'-4") clear width for Corridor 106 serving an 85-person occupant load, but the jurisdiction's amended Table 1020.2 (Minimum Corridor Width) establishes the controlling minimum width requirements based on occupant load. Standard model code minimum corridor width for occupant loads of 50 or more is typically 44 inches, which would exceed the 40-inch width shown on A-101. Since Table 1020.2 has been locally replaced, the 40-inch dimension must be verified against this specific table before construction proceeds, as it likely fails to meet the required minimum for an 85-person load.

Prompt sent to model

Project clause '4':
4. Corridor 106 is dimensioned at 3'-4" (40") clear width on A-101; confirm this width against the minimum corridor width required for an 85-person occupant load before construction proceeds, since this corridor is the sole path of travel for the rear two-thirds of the tenant
space.

These candidates are local amendments to the national model building code (e.g. IBC), not the full code. You may draw on your own general knowledge of standard model-code provisions to judge whether the project clause is consistent with normal practice, but any conflict you report must be grounded in - and cite - one of the local amendment clauses shown above, since those are the only things a human reviewer can independently verify against this jurisdiction's actual adopted text.

Does the project clause conflict with or fail to meet any of these code requirements? Call report_conflicts with your findings, or an empty conflicts list if there's no real conflict.
