9.5 INTERNAL COMMON CIRCULATION
Controls
1 The design of internal common circulation space must comply
with the provisions in AS1428.1 and AS1428.2 to provide adequate
pedestrian mobility and access.
2 All common circulation areas including foyers, lift lobbies and
stairwells must have:
i) appropriate levels of lighting with a preference for natural light
where possible;
ii) short corridor lengths that give clear sight lines;
iii) clear signage to offices and facilities;
iv) natural ventilation;
v) low maintenance and robust materials.
3 Where artificial lighting is required, energy efficient lights are to be
used in conjunction with timers or daylight controls.
4 Building design must avoid blind corner or dark alcoves near lifts and
stairwells, at entrances, along corridors and walkways, and within
car parks.
5 Seating areas must be provided within the foyer/atrium and are
encouraged in common circulation areas near workspaces.
