Developing Life Safety Plans for Health Care FacilitiesTodd Wyatt
There is no code or standard of practice specifying how to develop a life safety plan (LSP). A thorough and concise LSP provides a "picture" of the facility's design. This "picture" is used to determine if the intended design meets the minimum requirements of the applicable codes, standards, and regulations.
A “good” LSP identifies problems during design instead of construction, makes future inspections easier by starting with a code-compliant building, and provides the necessary documentation to facilitate future facility rehabilitations. A “bad” LSP may require compliance by demolition instead of eraser.
This presentation will focus on (4) major components of life safety design : means of egress components, fire-resistant rated construction, compartmentalization, and occupancy and use classifications.

The document provides a code analysis summary for a proposed tenant improvement project at an existing one-story building. The building has a footprint of 159,515sf and total area of 174,568sf. The occupancies include office, production, and warehouse. The analysis finds the building meets egress requirements based on an increased occupant load of 788. Accessibility and parking requirements are identified.

This document provides plans and specifications for tenant improvements to convert part of the second floor of an existing building into a corporate fitness center for Farmers Insurance. The project involves remodeling approximately 3,470 square feet on the second floor with new partitions, flooring, fixtures and equipment. Drawings include floor plans, elevations, sections and details. Specifications are provided for mechanical, electrical and plumbing work. The project will add 35 new occupants to the second floor without exceeding egress requirements.

"Rethinking Kållered │ From Big Box to a Reuse Hub: A Transformation Journey Toward Sustainability"
The booklet of my master’s thesis at the Department of Architecture and Civil Engineering at Chalmers University of Technology. (Gothenburg, Sweden)
This thesis explores the transformation of the vacated (2023) IKEA store in Kållered, Sweden, into a "Reuse Hub" addressing various user types. The project aims to create a model for circular and sustainable economic practices that promote resource efficiency, waste reduction, and a shift in societal overconsumption patterns.
Reuse, though crucial in the circular economy, is one of the least studied areas. Most materials with reuse potential, especially in the construction sector, are recycled (downcycled), causing a greater loss of resources and energy. My project addresses barriers to reuse, such as difficult access to materials, storage, and logistics issues.
Aims:
• Enhancing Access to Reclaimed Materials: Creating a hub for reclaimed construction materials for both institutional and individual needs.
• Promoting Circular Economy: Showcasing the potential and variety of reusable materials and how they can drive a circular economy.
• Fostering Community Engagement: Developing spaces for social interaction around reuse-focused stores and workshops.
• Raising Awareness: Transforming a former consumerist symbol into a center for circular practices.
Highlights:
• The project emphasizes cross-sector collaboration with producers and wholesalers to repurpose surplus materials before they enter the recycling phase.
• This project can serve as a prototype for reusing many idle commercial buildings in different scales and sizes.
• The findings indicate that transforming large vacant properties can support sustainable practices and present an economically attractive business model with high social returns at the same time.
• It highlights the potential of how sustainable practices in the construction sector can drive societal change.
