Inquiry

Our building has an inverted sloped roof which is supported by structural trusses. The second floor ceiling is exposed to the underside of the roof deck and trusses. The ceiling height varies from 11\'-0" to 25\'-0". The height of the second floor core is 9\'-6", which is the height of the bottom of the trusses. The copy room and janitor closet are in this core. They are exhausted separately and air is not re-circulated in these spaces. These rooms have an acoustical ceiling. Does this design meet with the requirements of EQ Credit 5 (Entryway systems have been provided)? If not is there any measure that can be taken to gain this credit such as adding a layer of gypsum board or another material to the top of these spaces?
