  • 1.  Changes due to Covid

    Posted 09-22-2020 05:25 PM
    Posting this in the discussion area, copied from the blog section:

    Based on the changes that occurred after 9/11 especially with airport travel procedures, do you think the same will apply to retail, restaurants and performing arts venues?

    Will we have permanent health screening at all entry doors?  Will codes allow a differing occupant load based on social distancing?  Other possible changes???

    Hi David,

    Our firm has done a few studies for Covid design issues mostly as they apply to restaurants.
