canteen) at accessible locations. Corridors are 2400mm wide for student crowd
movement. Clearance is 200mm. Wall thickness is 200mm.
REFERENCES TO LOAD

references/room_standards.md — minimum sizes for all school zones
- Load for worked example:
references/example_layout.json — complete school ground floor
