Chapter 6
State Requirements for Educational Facilities
Section 6.1
Size of Space and Occupant Design Criteria: All boards shall use the Size of Space and Occupant Design Criteria
contained in this section for planning new and evaluating existing educational, auxiliary, and ancillary facilities.
Procedures for Use of Size of Space and Occupant Design Criteria:
(1) Boards, including the School Boards, Community College Boards of Trustees, University Boards of Trustees,
Board of Governors, and public broadcasting stations may use the size of space and occupant design criteria
contained in this section to develop educational specifications and user requirements for use by designers in the
development of phase I, II, and III documents.
(2) In all the Size of Space and Occupant Design Criteria tables, the square footage is provided for the convenience
of selecting a nominal size.
In Table (A) for Public Schools and Vocational-Technical Schools, the indicators for Grade Level are: "N" for
nursery, "P" for preschool, "K" for kindergarten, "1-12" for grades one through twelve, and "PS" for postsecondary
vocational programs. Instructional spaces that contain student stations are marked with an asterisk (*).
In Table (B) for Community Colleges, the Information Classification Structure (ICS) Code identifies the type of
program or function associated with a given set of spaces. The same ICS Codes are used in the Room Inventory
of the Community College Facilities Inventory.
In Table (C) for State Universities, the Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) Code identifies the
particular academic discipline associated with various classroom, teaching laboratory, and research laboratory
spaces.
(3) When using the Size of Space and Occupant Design Criteria tables to calculate net square footage, the following
procedure may be used. Select the desired facility space. For some facility spaces, the recommended range of
sizes is listed to the right.
For most non-core curricula classroom facility spaces, the recommended size depends on the number of
occupants, or other kind of unit, the facility space needs to house. In these cases, the number of occupants, or
other unit, is multiplied by the square feet per occupant or unit to get the size of the main space. Core-curricula
classrooms are assigned student stations based on the type classroom.
Related spaces are suggested for many facility spaces. They are indicated by FISH (Florida Inventory of
School Houses) codes for Public Schools and Vocational-Technical Schools, and by alphanumeric codes for
Community Colleges and State Universities. The codes are shown in the rightmost column. They are used to look
up the names and sizes of the related spaces, which are found at the end of Table (A) for Public Schools and
Vocational-Technical Schools and in the separate Table (D) Related Spaces for Community Colleges and State
Universities. The square footages for the related spaces are added to the size of the main space to get the total
net square footage for the program.
(4) Once program net square footages are determined, other building space may be estimated as follows:
The aggregate amount of program net square footage may be increased up to six (6) percent for interior
enclosed space needed for electrical, mechanical, and HVAC equipment. The result is total net square footage for
the building.
The square footage for groupings of instructional spaces without fixed seating and without floor-toceiling walls may be enlarged by four (4) additional square feet per student for circulation space. This additional
circulation space should be excluded from the building net square footage amount used to figure the net-to-gross
difference explained below.
The total building net square footage may be supplemented for general circulation, interior and exterior walls,
open malls, and roof overhangs. The additional space is the net-to-gross square footage difference for the
building. The recommended amounts are as follows:
(a) Elementary school (grades N-6): twenty-seven (27) percent of building net square footage.
(b) Middle school (grades 6-9): thirty-two (32) percent of building net square footage.
(c) High school (grades 9-12): thirty-four (34) percent of building net square footage.

State Requirements for Educational Facilities
Section 6.1
(d) Community college, state university, ancillary, and public broadcasting: thirty-four (34) percent of building net
square footage.
Refer to the Facility Space Chart (OEF Form 208A, which is a supplement to OEF Form 208, Letter of
Transmittal) following these tables, for methods of measuring and calculating net square footage, net-to-gross
difference square footage, and gross square footage.
Five Size of Space and Occupant Design Criteria tables are provided.

Table (B) Community Colleges.
Table (C) State Universities.
Table (D) Related Spaces for Community Colleges and State Universities.
Table (E) Public Broadcasting Stations.
For exiting requirements, refer to Florida Building Code and NFPA 101 (National Fire Protection Association).
District school boards have the option to continue an interlocal agreement that was developed utilizing data from
the Florida Inventory of School Houses (FISH) as of October 1, 2004. After the expiration date, a new interlocal
agreement will be required based on up-to-date FISH data.
For each change in any educational facilities space that results in an increase or decrease in net square footage
of the space, student stations, the actual design of a space, or the condition of a space, school districts shall
report the change as follows:
(a) The facilities inventory shall be corrected by submitting on-line transactions through the Educational Facilities
Information System (EFIS).
(b) A district’s facilities inventory shall be corrected when new additions or remodeling occurs, during a validation
study, or other event that causes or results in a change in square footage, student stations, design of a facilities
space, or the condition of a facilities space.
1. New construction shall be added to the facilities inventory when a construction contract is issued.
2. Areas that are scheduled to undergo remodeling shall be updated in the inventory when a construction
contract is issued.
3. When a remodeling project is conducted by district staff, the inventory shall be updated when the project is
substantially completed.
(c) Prior to October 1 of each year, each district shall review the Florida Inventory of School Houses (FISH) and
shall certify to the Office of Educational Facilities that the inventory is current and accurate.
