And thanks again for everyone's input! I had asked this question
because our architects had initially placed the showers and eyewashes in
the halls, and I was looking for your opinions/experiences to use during
meetings that we had this morning (I already had my OSHA/ANSI support
sheet prepared).
FYI, we will be placing the showers & eyewashes in the labs. This is
where I and the faculty want them and, as some of your responses
indicated, I too feel that this complies much better with ANSI
Z358.1-2004.
Thanks again for the responses.
