Codes Project Advice

On Friday my group and I met with Maruja and discussed the facts that we found from the 2009 Virginia Construction Codes and found that most of the codes don't relate to the projects as much as we previously thought since we are not building the space. We did think that the means of egress codes and fire and smoke protection features are more important for our section of the project. Maruja gave us some helpful tips and said that we should also consider security for the safety section of our topic. She also suggested a book, that we found in the Interior Architecture library, that would help with codes in the educational setting. Right now my group and I are researching from the book, looking through some of the 2009 Virginia Construction Codes, and finding what the best security measures should be taken for an educational building. For example JLM Wholesale did some of the security for Spartan Village.
