Pressurization Calculation

The document contains calculations and measurements for pressurizing three staircases (05, 06, 07) with different door configurations. It analyzes pressure differences and airflow rates for each staircase using the K-factor method. Measurements were taken at various levels for each staircase with doors closed and open, and with bypass dampers open and closed.
