means of egress door’s minimum required opening width is identified in CBC Section 1008.1.1 as “sufficient for the occupant load thereof and shall provide a clear width of 32 inches” and “the maximum width of a swinging door shall be 48” nominal.” CBC Section 1005.1 provides multipliers for determining the egress capacities of doors based on occupant loads. Hardware features and gap clearances for The Joint Commission (TJC) should be incorporated. Required widths based on “I” occupancies indicated in CBC Section 1008.1.1 states, “Means of egress doors in a Group I-2 occupancy used for the movement of beds and litter patients shall provide a clear width not less than 44 inches.” Given that the “clear” width at doors is measured inside the door stops, the 44-inch requirement is typically accommodated by 4-foot door leafs. Non-patient areas may use a standard 3-foot door leaf; however, it should be carefully noted whether the door is located within the overall exit path from the patient room or area, as it continues through the building and into the exit stair enclosure, to arrive at its safe, exterior termination. Doors along the exit path must maintain the required means of egress capacity width, which “shall not be diminished along the path of exit travel” (CBC Section 1003.6 ).

Existing or Special Conditions Existing exit pathways, opening ratings, or other projects that include modifications to existing conditions should include information on both new and existing doors where such information is needed to describe the maintenance of door functions required by the design. The architect or engineer must verify with OSHPD that projects requiring construction of temporary walls and doors to separate construction from occupied spaces meet the same requirements as permanent construction when providing protection for exit corridors, occupancy separations, and other rated conditions.
