Default Height limitations

Does anyone know if the mimimum height limitation
for occupiable spaces

\ (At least half the ceiling 84"' or higher,
\ the remainder 60" or more, no obstructions
\ below ... what, 6'8"? IIRC)

apply to hallways? Or do you use the
means-of-egress rules that just say
that the entire exit route has to be
6'8" or more?

demention smaller than 7 feet, and a secondary egress.

And if you want to keep horses inside, fire sprinklers.
