Maximum Occupancy SignsOccupancy signs inform of architect calculations by load or fire department instructions in case of fire and the time it takes to leave the premises in a safe manner. The load used refers to the number of people permitted in a building at one time It takes into account the building's floor space and function. Signs regarding occupancy loads and occupancy maximums must be posted in easily noticeable conspicuous locations. Occupancy signs are sometimes called maximum occupancy signs. Information concerning the maximum number of people allowed in a facility must be publicly available and displayed properly.

 Where are maximum occupancy signs required?

Signs shall be posted and installed in conspicuous locations within the room, adjacent to the main entrance, so as not to be obstructed by any items. The sign shall be posted not more than 60 inches nor less than 48 inches above the floor.

How do you determine building occupancy? To estimate the occupancy of a space, divide the square footage of the room by the square footage required per person. This square footage per person varies significantly depending on the type of building, and can be found in Section 1004 of the International Fire Code

Does maximum occupancy include employees? When a business (usually restaurant) has a "maximum occupancy" sign, does that include employees?  The idea of the sign for maximum occupancy is that there is a limit to the total number of people that can safely be in the room, given the layout, particularly exits from the room/building.

What is a building code occupancy? Building occupancy classifications refer to categorizing structures based on their usage and are primarily used for building and fire code enforcement. They are usually defined by model building codes, and vary, somewhat, among them. Often, many of them are subdivide



The Maximum Occupancy sign is designed to inform guests of the maximum number of people allowed on one location / room. The sign maximum occupancy is calculated based on few concepts:

1)     Maximum Occupancy based on floor capacity weight

2)     Maximum occupancy based on fire safety Protocol ( Number of exits, etc)

3)    Maximum occupancy sign based on health – such as Amount of carbon monoxide provided in specific room vs ventilation or even viruses ( occupancy based on corona virus 6-feet apart) 

 

Terms You Should Know related to the maximum occupancy signage:

 

Occupancy load- Occupancy load refers to the number of people allowed in a building at one time based on the building’s floor space and function

 

Maximum occupancy- Maximum occupancy refers to the maximum number of people permitted in a room measured per foot for each width of the exit door. The maximum is 50 per foot of exit.

 

Assembly Occupancy- According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), an assembly occupancy refers to “an occupancy (1) used for a gathering of 50 or more persons (2) used as a special amusement building

 

What Are Maximum Occupancy Load Signs? An occupancy load must be posted on signs, which are sometimes called maximum occupancy load signs, so that this information is publicly available.

 

Where should be the occupancy sign installed? The 2018 International Building Code (IBC) requires that certain signs should be present in all “assembly occupancies”. Many states, cities and municipalities require owners to comply with the law and install occupancy signs in establishments such as restaurants, bars, coffee shops, night clubs, casinos, class rooms, gyms, exam rooms, event locations of different types, venues for wedding events, and many more….

Who is responsible for the occupancy signage at your location ? It is the responsibility of the owners to make sure that the sign is not damaged by wear or abuse and follow all state city and fire department rules and regulations.

Is the sign clear and legible? Signs should be clear and strong contrast between background and lettering.

Is the occupancy sign placed in a suitable location? Every room or space that is an assembly occupancy shall have the occupant load of the room or space posted in a conspicuous place, near the main exit or exit access doorway from the room or space and next to entrance.

 

In summary, the occupancy must be posted in many buildings on signs that are clearly visible and legible.
