Re: NEFIRST Pit Size?
Initial plans for the CT Shoreline District (Groton, week 3) have the pits at 9' wide and 10' deep. The Fire Marshall still has to approve things in a walk-through, so we figure go for the 10', and if we need to push back a foot well do it then.

I think this might be the norm, considering most events are in a school's gymnasium which tend to be about the same size. 10' wide made it impossible to fit any more than 28 pits. Currently, we have 32 at 9 x 10, plus 2 in corners at 8 x 12, and an overflow area in an adjacent hallway, with up to 8 more at 9x 10.
