APPARATUS BAYS.
The key driver behind the size and configuration of the Apparatus Bays are the truck
sizes and the required area around the vehicle footprint. Paragraph 2-2.2.1 gives the
standard truck sizes and their relative footprints. The diagrams in Figures D-3.1 through
D-3.4 illustrate the required space around each vehicle size class.
Each diagram has three possible configurations: a truck parked between two walls, a
truck parked between a wall and another truck, and a truck parked between two other
trucks. This is due to the different set-off distances for a wall versus another vehicle.
