Vertical Circulation Clause Samples
The Vertical Circulation clause defines the requirements and standards for elements such as stairs, elevators, and escalators that facilitate movement between different floors of a building. It typically outlines specifications regarding their design, placement, accessibility, and safety features to ensure efficient and compliant movement for occupants. This clause is essential for ensuring that buildings are navigable and accessible, addressing both regulatory compliance and user convenience.
