[Nick Gibbins]

Such is life. 

If you're going to try and model this, you might want to have a look at the University of Leeds; from what I remember, they have (or at least had c. the early 90s) a level numbering scheme that's altitude based, so that floors at the same altitude had the same level number (the campus is built on a slope, with elevated walkways connecting some buildings).
