A shell is a building that is empty in the inside. Typically a shell permit is obtained for a commercial/retail property that does not have a Tenant. The owner will fill this empty space and then a Tenant Improvement (TI) Permit is obtained.

The shell permit would include only the most basic structure the code will allow. The main shape of the building, exiting, egress lighting (exit lighting), the minimum number of restrooms required. The shell permit does not include occupancy. A Tenant can not move in until they obtain a Tenant Improvement Permit.

If a restaurant moved in and wanted a Tenant Improvement they would provide drawings for all seating, kitchens, lighting, mechanical, electrical, Plumbing for ONLY the portion that the restaurant...the rest of the structure remains unoccupied until a TI Permit is obtained
