Provides categories for various construction tasks, referred to as the classification of work Refers the reader to associated chapters in the code for various requirements and work related to those tasks15 Construction Tasks of OccupancyRelocated Buildings163 Levels of AlterationsLevel 1 Section 602 & Chapter 7 Replace/remove equipment/fixtures Replace or cover wall/roof coverings Reroof permitsLevel 2 Section 603 & Chapters 7-8 Reconfigure space/systems Add/eliminate doors or windows Add equipmentLevel 3 -Section 604 & Chapters 7-8- 9 Based on defined work area Applies where work area exceeds 50% of aggregate building area17 Chapter 7 Alterations Level 1 Level 1 alterationsinclude interior finishes and trim Chapter 7 describes guidelines.

7 Level 1 alterations to historic buildings shall comply with Chapter 7 except as modified by Chapter 12 for historic buildings. Does not involve space reconfiguration. 18 Chapter 8 Alterations Level 2 Involves extensive space reconfiguration that does not exceed 50% of the building new construction elements, components, systems and spaces shall comply with the IBC requirements, with 6 to add windows without complying with IBCR equirements for light and installed electrical equipment to complywith Section 8 Alterations Level for newly constructed dead-end corridor length to comply with minimum ceiling height for new habitable and occupiable spaces & below grade transportation stations, existing and new escalators width can be 32.

8 Structural members and connections can comply with alternative design criteria in accordance with Section 9 Alterations Level 3 Involves alterations that cover 50% or more of the aggregate area of the building . Additional building features are triggered beyond the actual work area and other parts of the building where no alterations are planned. Basic principle is that Level 3 alterations will comply with the IBC but the remainder of the building can remain as is. It is assumed that the existing building is an approved structure. 21 Chapter 10 Change of OccupancyThe requirements of Chapter 10 are typically in addition to the requirements of Chapters 7, 8, and 9 (incremental approach) Sections 1002 1010.
