  • a care occupancy,

  • a care and treatment occupancy,

  • a detention occupancy,

  • a residential occupancy where the occupant load exceeds 10,

  • a retirement home,

  • a business and personal services occupancy where the occupant load exceeds 300,

  • a mercantile occupancy where the occupant load exceeds 300,

  • a high hazard industrial occupancy where the occupant load exceeds 25,

  • a medium hazard industrial occupancy where the occupant load exceeds 100, or

  • a low hazard industrial occupancy where the occupant load exceeds 300.
