ABSTRACT
The building occupancy tracks the percentage of population that utilizes the building allowing the operator to identify when the majority of the users are occupying the building. Sit with managers and determine what the time expectations are for the occupants to be in the building and working. In order to accomplish this it is necessary that the occupants are physically counted over a defined period of time. Identify the maximum number of occupants using tools available; calculate the percentage of occupancy in one hour increments. Occupants can be counted by utilizing security systems that record entrance and exit, time cards or working schedules or physical counting at scheduled times throughout the day. Counting occupants over the full week will provide more accuracy. Fill the chart below by shading the boxes to create a bar graph chart showing when the maximum and minimum occupancy times during the day occur.
