Building Code Calculator

The building code calculator (BCC) application is set up to be able to perform a range of calculations pertaining to occupant load, minimum number of required plumbing fixtures, etc. with easily usable menus and functions for specific space functionalities. Additionally, the BCC can function offline and generate a copy of calculation steps, both of which are invaluable to on-site work and report/permitting generation. This represents a marked improvement in methods currently employed by building industry professionals; also, the BCC has the potential as a successful educational tool. Both survey and biometric data from senior interior design student volunteers show that using the BCC reduces stress levels and helped to accomplish the building tasks performed. The BCC will save time and reduce errors generated from building code calculations done by building and space planning professionals as well as help students in educational settings to master design concepts.
