LINE-OF-SIGHT STYLE
Line-of-Sight display rules provide restrictions on certain areas of booths to allow attendees to view neighboring booths in their line they walk the floor. There are a variety of booth types, and each one is addressed below with specific insight on how to Line-of-Sight regulations.
BOOTH
A. LINEAR BOOTH LAYOUT
to have products or easily seen by attendees walk the aisles is essential exhibitors, and that is the including a Linear Booth Line-of-Sight setback rule. Linear also called “in-line” booths, generally arranged in a straight have neighboring exhibitors immediate right and left, only one side exposed to
Dimensions purposes of consistency of layout and/or reconfiguration, floor plan design increments of 10ft (3.05m) has the de facto standard in States. Therefore, unless by space or other Linear Booths are most 10ft (3.05m) wide and (3.05m) deep, i.e. 10ft by 10ft 3.05m). A maximum back wall height limitation of 8ft (2.44m) is generally specified to prevent display materials from on neighboring exhibits behind the back wall.
A. Linear Booth
Definition: One or more standard units in a straight line. Linear Booths, also called “in-line” booths, are generally arranged in a straight line and have neighboring exhibitors on their immediate right and left, leaving only one side exposed to the aisle.
Height: Exhibit fixtures, components and identification signs will be permitted to a maximum height of 8' (2.44 m).
Intent: If a portion of an exhibit booth extends above 8' (2.44 m) high, the exhibit booth background will detract from the overall impact of the exhibit directly behind that booth regardless of how the rear of the offending exhibit is finished.
Space of the number of Linear Booths utilized, e.g. 10ft by 20ft (3.05m by 6.10m), 10ft by 30ft (3.05m by 9.14m), 10ft by 40ft 12.19m), etc., display materials should be arranged in such a manner so as not to obstruct sight lines of neighboring The maximum height of 8ft (2.44m) is allowed only in the rear half of the booth space, with a 4ft (1.22m) height imposed on all materials in the remaining space forward to the aisle. Note: When three or more Linear Booths are used in combination as a single exhibit space, the 4ft (1.22m) height limitation is applied only to that portion of exhibit space which is within (3.05m) of an adjoining booth.
Depth: All display fixtures over 4' (1.22 m) in height and placed within 10 lineal feet (3.05 m) of an adjoining exhibit, must be confined to that area of the exhibitor’s space which is at least 5' (1.52 m) from the aisle line.
Association of Exhibitions and Events® (IAEE)
Intent: Each exhibitor is entitled to a reasonable sightline from the aisle regardless of the size of exhibit. Exhibitors with larger space—30 lineal feet (9.14 m) or more—should also be able to effectively use as much of the total floor space as possible as long as they do not interfere with the rights of others. The limitation on display fixtures over 4' (1.22 m) and within 10 lineal feet (3.05 m) of a neighboring exhibit is intended to accomplish both of these aims.
Important: Space dimensions shown on floor plan are from center line of booth equipment, such as side rails and/or back drape. Exhibit structures must be constructed to allow sufficient tolerance on each side for this equipment and for utility service at rear of booth.
Note: When three or more Linear Booths are used in combination as a single exhibit space, the 4' (1.22 m) height limitation is applied only to that portion of exhibit space which is within 10' (3.05 m) of an adjoining booth.
A Corner Booth is a Linear Booth at the end of a series of in-line booths with exposure to intersecting aisles on two sides. All guidelines for Linear Booths apply.
B. PERIMETER WALL BOOTH LAYOUT
PERIMETER BOOTH
A Perimeter Booth is a Linear Booth that backs to an outside wall of the exhibit facility rather than to another exhibit.
B. Perimeter Wall Booth
Dimensions and Use of Space
Definition: A Perimeter Booth is a Linear Booth that backs to an outside wall of the exhibit facility rather than to another exhibit.
All guidelines for Linear Booths apply to Perimeter Booths except that the typical maximum back wall height for Perimeter Booths is 12ft (3.66m).
Height: Exhibit fixtures, components and identification signs will be permitted to a maximum height of 12' (3.66 m) in perimeter-wall booths.
Intent: Because the outer perimeter booths are not backed up against another exhibitor’s booth, display back walls and materials over 8' (2.44 m) will not interfere with or distract from any other exhibit booth.
Depth: All display fixtures over 4' (1.22 m) in height and placed within 10 lineal feet (3.05 m) of an adjoining exhibit, must be confined to that area of the exhibitor’s space which is at least 5' (1.52 m) from the aisle line.
Intent: Each exhibitor is entitled to a reasonable sightline from the aisle regardless of the size of exhibit. Exhibitors with larger space 30 lineal feet (9.14 m) or more should also be able to effectively use as much of the total floor space as possible as long as they do not interfere with the rights of others. The limitation on display fixtures over 4' (1.22 m) and within 10 lineal feet (3.05 m) of a neighboring exhibit is intended to accomplish both of these aims.
Important: Space dimensions shown on floor plan are from center line of booth equipment, such as side rails and/or back drape. Exhibit structures must be constructed to allow sufficient tolerance on each side for this equipment and for utility service at rear of booth.
Exhibitors considering a perimeter-wall booth in order to take advantage of the extra height permitted should design their exhibit so that it can be used either at the 8' (2.44 m) height or the 12' (3.66 m) height, so that it can be used in all fixture shows even if a perimeter-wall space is not available.
Note: All guidelines for Linear Booths apply to Perimeter Booths except that the typical maximum back wall height for Perimeter Booths is 12' (3.66 m).

Corner Booth
Definition: A Corner Booth is a Linear Booth at the end of a series of in-line booths with exposure to intersecting aisles on two sides. All guidelines for Linear Booths apply.
SPLIT ISLAND BOOTH
C. SPLIT ISLAND BOOTH LAYOUT
A Split Island Booth is a Peninsula Booth which shares a common back wall with another Peninsula Booth.
Dimensions and Use of Space
C. Split Island Booth
Definition: Exhibit with four or more standard units back to back and split in such a manner that the back wall is common to each exhibit.
The entire Cubic Content of this booth may be used, up to the maximum allowable height, without any back wall Line-of-Sight restrictions. A typical maximum height range allowance is 16ft to 20ft (4.88m to 6.10m), including signage. The entire Cubic Content of the space may be used up to the maximum allowable height. Double-sided signs, logos and graphics shall be set back 10ft (3.05m) from adjacent booths.
Height: Exhibit fixtures, components and identification signs will be permitted to a maximum height of 16' (4.88 m).
Depth: Since a split island booth consists of four or more standard units back to back and shares a common back wall with neighboring exhibits with three aisle exposures, full use of the floor plan is permitted.
Important: Although a split island booth shares many of the advantages of an island booth, double-deck display is NOT PERMITTED in a split island booth. Hanging signs are permitted. See hanging sign guidelines, Section H, for complete details.
Note: Any portion of the exhibit bordering another exhibitor’s booth must have the backside of that portion finished and must not carry identification signs or other copy that detracts from the adjoining exhibit.
ISLAND BOOTH
D. ISLAND BOOTH LAYOUT
An Island Booth is any size booth exposed to aisles on all four sides.
ISLAND BOOTH
Dimensions and Use of Space
D. Island Booth
Definition: Exhibit with one or more display levels in four or more standard units with aisles on all four sides.
An Island Booth is typically 20ft by 20ft (6.10m by 6.10m) or larger, although it may be configured differently. The entire Cubic Content of the space may be used up to the maximum allowable height, which is usually a range of 16ft to 20ft (4.88m to 6.10m), including signage.
Height: Exhibit fixtures, components and identification signs will be permitted to a maximum height of 16' (4.88 m), provided written approval is received from exposition management at least 60 days prior to the show. Intent: When an island booth exceeds 8' 3" (2.5 m), it does not interfere with other exhibitors because it obviously does not back up against another exhibitor’s back wall. The extra height is often required in an island booth exhibit to permit the open walk-through approach normally used in this type of location. The 16' (4.88 m) maximum height limitation has been set to avoid undue competition between exhibitors to see who can go the highest or be seen the farthest with each negating the others efforts. Also, the 16' (4.88 m) high exhibit will fit into most exposition centers, thus permitting each exhibitor to get the maximum use of his/her exhibit.
Depth: Because an island booth is automatically separated by the width of an aisle from all neighboring exhibits, full use of the floor plan is permitted.

PENINSULA BOOTH
E. PENINSULA BOOTH LAYOUT
A Peninsula Booth is exposed to aisles on three sides. There are two types of Peninsula Booths: (a) one which backs to Linear Booths, and (b) one which backs to another Peninsula Booth which is referred to as a “Split Island Booth.”
Dimensions and Use of Space
E. Peninsula Booth
Definition: Exhibit with four or more standard units back to back with an aisle on three sides.
Height: Exhibit fixtures, components and identification signs will be permitted to a maximum height of 16' (4.88 m) based on approval.
A Peninsula Booth is usually 20ft by 20ft (6.10m by 6.10m) or larger. When a Peninsula Booth backs up to two Linear Booths, the back wall is restricted to 4ft (1.22m) high within 5ft (1.52m) of each aisle, permitting adequate line of sight for the adjoining Linear Booths. A typical maximum height range allowance is 16ft to 20ft (4.88m to 6.10m), including signage for the center portion of the back wall. Double-sided signs, logos and graphics shall be set back 10ft (3.05m) from adjacent booths.
Intent: When an exhibit in a peninsula booth configuration exceeds 8' 3" (2.5 m), it does not interfere with other exhibitors because it does not back up against another exhibitors back wall. The extra height is often needed to permit the open walk-through approach normally used in this type of location. The 16' (4.88 m) height limitation has been set to avoid undue competition between exhibitors to see who can go the highest or be seen the farthest with each negating the other’s efforts. Also, the 16' (4.88 m) high exhibit will fit into almost any exposition center, thus permitting each exhibitor to get maximum use of his or her exhibit.
Guidelines for approval: All requests must be submitted in writing and approved by The Wire Association International, Inc., Show Management, a minimum of 60 days in advance of the show.
Depth: All display fixtures over 4' (1.22 m) in height and placed within 10 lineal feet (3.05 m) of a neighboring exhibit, must be confined to that area of the booth that is at least 5' (1.52 m) from the aisle line to avoid blocking the sightline from the aisle to the adjoining booth.
Intent: Exhibitor’s adjoining peninsula exhibits are entitled to the same reasonable sightline from the aisle as they would expect if they were adjacent to an exhibitor with a standard booth.
PAGE 4 of 15
Important: Peninsula booths are normally “faced” toward the cross aisle. Any portion of the exhibit bordering another exhibitor’s booth must have the back side of that portion finished and must not carry identification signs or other copy that would detract from the adjoining exhibit.
PENINSULA BOOTH
F. DOUBLE-DECK DISPLAYS LAYOUT
F. Double-deck Displays
Definition: Exhibit with more than one display level, in four or more standard units, back to back with aisles on all four sides.
Regulations: A. A double-deck booth will be permitted only in an island booth. B. Exhibit fixtures, components and identification signs will be permitted to a maximum height of 16' (4.88 m). C. Audible smoke alarms must be installed on each level. D. 10 lb. ABC fire extinguisher must be located on each level. E. Signs must be posted indicating the maximum number of people the structure will accommodate.
Guidelines for approval: There will be a surcharge of 50% of the total space cost for double deck displays. All requests for a double-deck display must be submitted in writing and approved by The Wire Association International, Inc., Show Management, a minimum of 90 days in advance of the show.
Please submit three (3) complete sets of any drawings or descriptions along with your request. Request should include technical drawings showing display structure that include a signature or stamp of a reviewing structural engineer indicating that the structure design is properly engineered for its proposed use. Also, included must be a signature of an authorized official of the exhibit building company indicating that the structure is built in compliance with the details and specifications set forth on the drawings. Maximum number of people the structure will accommodate must be indicated.
G. TOWERS LAYOUT
G. Towers
Definition: A free standing exhibit component separate from the main exhibit fixture that is used for identification and display purposes only.
Height/depth: Towers will be permitted to a height and depth that correspond to the height and depth regulations for the appropriate exhibit configuration of which they are a part. For example, towers that are part of a peninsula exhibit will not exceed 16' (4.88 m) in height, and will not be placed within 10 lineal feet (3.05 m) of a neighboring exhibit unless they are confined to that area of the exhibitor’s space which is at least 5' (1.52 m) from the aisle line to avoid blocking the sightline from the aisle to the adjoining booth.
Intent: Towers are part of the overall exhibit presentation and, must be treated as a component of the total exhibit configuration. The maximum height and depth regulations have been set to avoid undue competition between exhibitors to see who can go the highest or be seen the farthest, while also assuring exhibitors who are adjoining exhibits with towers of the same reasonable sightline from the aisle as they would expect if they were adjacent to an exhibitor with a standard booth.
Structural integrity: All towers in excess of 12' (3.66 m) must have drawings available for inspection by exposition management, the installation and dismantling contractor, the exhibitor and governmental authority during the time the tower is being erected, exhibited and dismantled at the show site that include a signature or stamp of a reviewing structural engineer indicating that the structure designed is properly engineered for its proposed use, and a signature of an authorized official of the exhibit building company indicating that the structure is built in compliance with the details and specifications set forth on the drawings.
Intent: Exhibitors adjoining exhibits with towers are entitled to the same reasonable safety precautions they would expect if they were adjacent to a standard booth.

If you have a column bordering your booth, contact WAI sales for exact measurements.
H. HANGING SIGNS
H. Hanging Signs
Definition: An exhibit component suspended above an exhibit of four or more standard units back to back with an aisle on at least three sides for the purpose of displaying graphics or identification.
Regulations:
A. Hanging Signs will only be permitted in the following exhibit types:
1. Island booth—400 sq. ft. or greater.
2. Split island booth—400 sq. ft. or greater
3. Peninsula booth—400 sq. ft. or greater
B. Hanging signs will be permitted to a total length on each side of the exhibitor’s space that does not exceed 50% of the corresponding dimension of the booth.
C. Hanging sign dimensions from the top of the sign to the bottom cannot exceed 4' (1.22 m). (See diagram)
D. Hanging sign will be positioned 16' (4.88 m) from the floor to the bottom of the sign. Height of sign cannot exceed 20' (6.1 m) from the floor.
E. The maximum hanging load of any single sign or component shall be 500 pounds. Any exception to the maximum hanging load will be handled on an individual basis.
F. All signs suspended from the ceiling of the Georgia World Congress Center must be hung by Shepard Exposition Services. No other firm will be allowed access to the ceiling in the Georgia World Congress Center, nor will they be allowed to bring any equipment onto the show floor at anytime.
Guidelines for approval: All requests must be submitted in writing and approved by The Wire Association International, Inc., Show Management, a minimum of 60 days in advance of the show.
Please submit three (3) complete sets of any drawings or descriptions along with your request. Drawings should include a description of items(s) to be hung, proposed method of installation, location of hanging points, total weight of item(s) and any other pertinent technical information. Each request must be approved by the Georgia World Congress Center’s Engineering Department.
Intent: All exhibitor hanging signs will be uniformly hung with the bottom of the sign starting at 16' (4.88 m) from the floor and the top no higher than 20' (6.1 m) from the floor. This allows for the show aisle signs to be hung at a different height from the hanging signs therefore minimizing viewing interference for the attendee.
Please note: The Georgia World Congress Center’s Engineering Department holds the authority to hire the services of a Registered Structural Engineer to review and approve such requests in addition to reviewing the final installation. The cost of the Registered Structural Engineer shall be at prevailing rates and paid by the exhibitor. After approval, the exhibitor will use the special labels and address provided in this manual. Send the signs under separate shipment. Do not ship signs until you receive approval.
MULTI-STORY EXHIBIT
PURPOSE
The Georgia World Congress Center (GWCC) and the Georgia Dome (Dome) provide these guidelines to clarify the requirements for multi-story exhibit booths. The Fire Marshal has provided basic guidelines for compliance with Paragraph 9-4.4.3.7 of NFPA 101 Life Safety Code, which governs multi-level exhibit booths. In addition, the GWCC and Georgia Dome have developed additional guidelines appropriate for the safe and orderly operation of these facilities. These guidelines are as follows:
a. Covered or roofed areas should be furnished with acceptable battery-powered smoke detectors that emit alarms audible outside of the enclosed or covered area.
b. The exhibitor will provide for a Fire Watch within the booth space. Personnel providing Fire Watch services must be supplied with a Class 2A10BC Fire Extinguisher in each enclosed area covered by the floor above. Personnel must be trained in the use of extinguishers.
c. Spiral stairways are not recommended for areas occupied by the public, visitors or clientele, unless specifically approved.
d. Exhibit booth plans must be submitted to the Georgia World Congress Center/Georgia Dome Event Services Department for review a minimum of sixty (60) days before move-in. There must be a licensed structural engineer’s stamp of certification on all plans.
e. The upper deck of multilevel exhibits greater than 300 square feet in area shall have at least two remote means of egress.
f. Areas within the exhibit booth that are totally enclosed (i.e., walls and roof/ceiling) must be served by an emergency lighting source (i.e., battery-powered) when such areas lead to exit access from the space (e.g., stairs, aisles, corridors, ramps and passageways leading to an exit from the booth space).
