BOMA/OSCRE comparison

Art Webb: RAND Corporation; August 30, 2013

Is there a chart that shows 2010 BOMA standard space classifications compared to the equivalent OSCRE space classifications? If so, where would I find it?

David Fingret: Extreme Measures Inc.; September 3, 2013

There is no comparison chart per se, however you can purchase the BOMA 2010 standard, which contains chart examples and calculations at www.boma.org.
