a.
Examples A and C contain the authorized area of
5-1 New Facility
17,000 square feet and 34 auto stalls (paragraph 3-5
Table A) with an individual vehicle entrance to each stall.
Design
Example A, shown with suggested elevations, is a
U-shaped pIan which breaks excessively long runs of over-
head doors and is more pleasing in appearance from the
street. Aesthetics is especially important if the center is
to be located in an area that is not industrial in nature.
Various support activities are located conveniently
between the general repair and tune-up stalls and the spe-
cialized work stalls.
b. Example B shows an Auto Crafts Center with interior
vehicular circulation. It is based on the criteria and space
allocation discussed in paragraph 3-5, Table B. Because of
the increased area required for interior circulation, only
25 auto stalls are provided instead of the 34 auto stalls
authorized for a 17,000 square foot facility. All other
areas remain the same size. The facility can be expanded
at either end without altering the supporting areas.
c.
Example C is similar to Example B except the interior
vehicular lane has been eliminated. The result is a long
building with vehicle access along the front and back
directly to each stall through individual overhead doors.
The space used for interior vehicular circulation in
Example B has been used to provide the nine additional
authorized auto stalls in this example.
