Storage
Jason, Amy and Eman made a mock-up (quick and dirty) of a possible storage solution. Take a look either in person or at the photos on the project server/STORAGE.
We also looked at the 'draped acoust. baffle' idea. Pics posted on server/Ceiling group. Will leave up for now.

fire codes
Found out some general information about 214 Marvin in regards to fire codes. I'll post the most pertinent here in case this affects any other groups (which I'm sure that it does).
Mr. Rumbach of DCM filled me in on these facts:
The common wall next to the stairwell is a 2 hour fire rated assembly, which typically means double 5/8 next to metal studs. All other walls can be assumed as 1 hour fire rated. The doors are all 20 min fire rated with closers (for fires). The door adjacent to the studio is not needed for egress, and may in fact be removed.
There's also an issue about our occupancy which I'll just discuss in class.. it gets rather complicated. Post any comments/suggestions/whatever. Amy
