Non-Separated Occupancies (508.3)
Non-separated occupancies shall be individually classified in accordance with Section 302.1. The
requirements of this code shall apply to each portion of the building based on the occupancy classification of
that space except that the most restrictive applicable provisions of Section 403 and Chapter 9 shall apply to
the building or portion thereof in which the non-separated occupancies are located. The allowable building
area and height of the building or portion thereof shall be based on the most restrictive allowances for the
occupancy groups under consideration for the type of construction of the building in accordance with Section
503.1. No separation is required between non-separated occupancies.
□
Separated Occupancies (508.4)
Separated occupancies shall be individually classified in accordance with Section 302.1. Each separated
space shall comply with this code based on the occupancy classification of that portion of the building. In
each story, the building area shall be such that the sum of the ratios of the actual building area of each
s e p a r a t e d o c c u p a n c y divided by the allowable b u i l d i n g area o f each separated occupancy shall
not exceed 1. Each separated occupancy shall comply with the building height limitations based on the type of
construction of the building in accordance with Section 503.1 with Special Provisions granted by Section 509.
Individual occupancies shall be separated from adjacent occupancies in accordance with Table 508.4.
Required separations shall be fire barriers constructed in accordance with Section 707 or horizontal assemblies
constructed in accordance with Section 712, or both, so as to completely separate adjacent occupancies.
