The 2015 VCC has a new section 430 Higher Education Laboratories, which appears to be taken from 2018 IBC section 428.
How does this section relate to Table 414.2.2 Design & Number of Control Areas?
Is it an intermediate step for labs which exceed hazardous material amounts in T414.2.2, or does it apply to all labs, no matter how much (or how little) hazardous materials are used?
I see where “Laboratory Suite” and “Teaching and Research Laboratory” are defined, but not “Laboratory”. Colleges have many different types of laboratories – chemistry, biology, physics, electronics, geology, environmental, nursing, etc., and many of them have negligible amounts of hazardous materials used in them.
