LIFE SAFETY ANALYSISSimilar to the Change of Use Analysis, many jurisdictions now require a professional architect to conduct a Life Safety Analysis, especially when a new occupant or business is proposing a change in the building's occupancy type. This requirement is particularly relevant in situations where the new use poses potential safety risks or conflicts with existing building systems. These life safety codes and regulations are often complex, non-intuitive, and can seem like overwhelming hurdles for new businesses, building owners, and potential tenants who are looking to adapt or renovate spaces for new purposes.
At JDC Architecture & Design, we demystify these complicated code requirements and provide tailored, practical solutions. We understand that navigating the intricacies of life safety regulations can be daunting, especially for small businesses, startups, or building owners unfamiliar with building codes and occupancy standards. Our team works closely with you to identify potential safety concerns, assess the building's existing conditions, and propose innovative solutions that help ensure your new use complies with life safety standards while minimizing disruption to your plans. We focus on making the process as smooth and efficient as possible by offering informed guidance and ensuring that all safety protocols are met without unnecessary delays or additional costs.
