"Travel distance means the distance from any point in a floor area to an exit measured along the path of exit travel, except that when floor areas are subdivided into rooms used singly or into suites of rooms and served by public corridors or exterior passageways, the distance shall be measured from the door of the rooms or suites to the nearest exit."
it seems that if a floor area has rooms..then the travel distance is measured from the room door onwards. can anyone give a rational for such a relaxation? i thought, the risk of travelling should remain no matter how a floor area layout is.
