Synopsis

Building change of use is an increasingly common phenomenon, as abandoned warehouses become apartments, banks morph into restaurants, and train terminals are transformed into hospitality centers. Such projects abound in urban and suburban areas; but changes and modifications of use in existing buildings are subject to extensive regulation - zoning, site assessments, codes. This book will be the first practical guide to the ins and outs of change-of-use projects.The key features and benefits include: complete coverage of zoning issues such as allowable occupancies, building uses, and historic districts; hundreds of exhibits, tables, and checklists make project assessment and evaluation a cinch; detailed information on developing the design program with a client; understanding the complexities of retrofitting building systems into change-of-use properties; code hot buttons - conforming with IBC, NFPA, ADA, NEC and other codes; feasibility studies of alternative delivery systems; wide range of case studies of projects that work from public and private sectors, all with plans and before and after photos; renovation and rehab product recommendations; and resources.
