About this video:
In this video, Rick Uzubell from Cabaret Design Group helps DIY enthusiasts plan their own commercial bar designs. Rick’s discussion begins by citing that the International Building Code and local codes ultimately dictate the occupancy size of every bar and nightclub. Finally, Rick presents an analytical table for facility planning, that relates the size and shape of each bar type to the occupancy in order to predict the amount of square footage each bar yields per patron.
