Estimated Terrace Capacity
I refer to the telephone call between Mr. Bo~es and my Pring~pal District
Surveyor, ~. Butler, earlier this afternoon.
The approximate holding capacities produced for the standing terrace
areas do not take accoun~ of any turnstile ingress limitations, or
those of egress or emergency egress limitations since it is my understanSing
that the Fire Authority will consider all these matters being tha= they
have the primary function of estimation of terrace capacity.
These figures therefore need to be carefully checked with %hose produced
by the Fire AuThority =o ensure that account is taken of the need for
any further limitations for the purposes of the proposed cert!fica~e
a~,endment.
My calculations based on the "green guide" modified by the Taylor Inquiry
recommendations give the followin£:-
i. Spion Kop 18,200
2. North Wes= Terrace (Upper) 2,300
3. North West Corner {Lower) 6BO (Pen 7)
In accordance with our consultations, figures have not been produced for
Pens one to six of the West Terrace.
i w~uld appre:iate the sight of the Fire Authority figures before =he
Certificate is amended.
