School Capacity and Size

The guidelines for schools are based on the programmatic models presented in Appendix A. The guidelines for schools with design capacities that fall between the capacities of the models will be determined on a graduated scale.

Programmatic Models

Typical programs for schools, which identify the number and types of typical spaces, can be found in Appendix A.

Net to Gross Ratio

To convert net square feet to gross square feet, a maximum net to gross ratio of 1.37 should be used. The net to gross ratio shall include wall thickness, circulation, custodial space, mechanical/electrical space, and group restrooms. Refer to the programmatic models in Appendix A.
