I've been asked to check the occupancy factor and suitability of fire exits for an existing soft play centre. The only specific guidance that I could find was on the ROSPA website which references BS EN 1176-10:2023 and BS 8409:2009.

Can anyone advise if I should be looking elsewhere?

https://www.rospa.com/policy/play-safety/services/advice/indoor-soft-play

"Child user capacity is calculated using Table 1 of BS EN 1176-10:2023. A minimum of two fire exits for up to 100 users with an additional exit for every 100 extra users of the building. This includes staff, parents, and carers as well as the children".

Also, does the reference to a minimum of two fire exits per 100 users take into account a discounted exit, or is that in total?

 

Thanks in advance
