Final answer:

Institutional Occupancies by the IBC corresponds with different classifications in the LSC, examples being Health Care Occupancies and Educational Occupancies.

Step-by-step explanation:

The occupancies considered Institutional by the International Building Code (IBC) correspond to several different classifications in the Life Safety Code (LSC). Two examples of these corresponding LSC occupancy classifications are Health Care Occupancies and Educational Occupancies. In the context of the IBC, Institutional Occupancies may include hospitals, nursing homes, or day care facilities for people with physical or mental health complications, which align with the Health Care Occupancies in the LSC. Similarly, facilities such as schools and colleges would be considered Educational Occupancies under the LSC.
