Emergency lighting noted page E1.0 are wall packs. The coverage does not appear to be adequate throughout all egress paths. The following areas do not appear to have adequate emergency lighting: Office / Bathroom, Prep area, Kitchen, Server Station, New Bar, Main Dining and New Game Room / corridor area.
Provide specifications for the proposed emergency light wall packs so I can verify coverage.
NOTE: Most wall packs are listed for a mounting height of 7.5 feet with spacing between devices of around 10 feet, while providing the required illumination to between 3 to 6 feet from the wall.
Some of the areas emergency lighting requirements can be addressed by changing some of the normal lighting fixtures to dual normal lighting / emergency light fixtures.
