Hi all
the classes of ssof in healthcare premises is usually 0 or 1
circulation spaces and rooms are class 0 and small rooms class 1
For noticeboards to be anything other that class 0 then they cannot be more than 5% of the total wall area (I expect granny and sucking eggs comes in here)
one hospital wants to put these signs on the ward and hospital street walls (below) and they are huge
has anyone come across them before?
what does the Y mean after the Class 1?
I think the tape measure will have to come out!
Ps...does anyone know where this figure of 5% came from? is it a figure that they just thought acceptable?
cheers
