I have an eight story building, of which, I am the Building Engineer. I have a current Tenant that wishes to lease, for a day, a Vacancy that is 3,500 Sq Ft. All open space. They expect 100 folks to show up for a one day seminar. There is a kitchen in the space, the restrooms are just outside the Suite doors, and the space is next to the Main building entry lobby, at grade level, for easy evacuation in the event of a fire.

I am in the West Metro Fire District, of Jefferson County, in Golden, Colorado. Can any one tell me if there is a National Fire Code calculation or rule of thumb for calculating legal/safe occupancy limits?
