Can the SHGC value of a residential building be taken for a hostel building?

Query

Our project is a Hostel Building in an institutional project. Hostel buildings consist of some rooms which have a non-residential purpose like TV room, indoor games areas, etc. Since majority of the building is residential, can the prescribed SHGC value for residential buildings, be applicable to the complete project?

Solution

Yes. In this case, SHGC value of residential building will be applicable to the complete building.
