What is the ratio (and the correct measure of) students to stairs?
- Majromax 5y agoFrom the floor plan linked elsewhere in this thread, I count ten stairwells spaced around the perimeter of the building, which would imply a ratio of about 450 residents per stairwell.
- the_optimist 5y agoIs that an acceptable number? What’s the necessary throughput of a stairwell for an evacuation? I have certainly lived and worked in buildings where the number of people per stairwell was far higher.
