Field Tolerances

Forgive me if this has been discussed elsewhere (I searched "tolerance" and did not find this topic) but I just read in the manual (I believe it is section 3.1.1) that field dimensions are + or - 1 inch!

Does this mean that the step has the possiblity of being 7 inches high? They say they will try to get it as close as reasonably possible but a 1 inch difference over 6 inches is a lot. What is the maximum amount higher it is likely to be?

Thanks.

Re: Field Tolerances

The things that vary by up to an inch will be things that very between regionals. For example, the positioning of the middle platform in relation to the rest of the field, and the height of the bar. The height of the steps is fixed once they cut the material, and will be much closer then 1 inch.
