Intent
When an exhibit in a
peninsula booth configuration exceeds
8’3” (2.5m), it does not interfere with
other exhibitors because it does not
back up against another exhibitor’s back
wall. The extra height is often needed to
permit the open walk-through approach
normally used in this type of location.
The 16’0” (4.88m) 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 16’0” (4.88m) high exhibit will fit into
almost any exposition center, thus
permitting each exhibitor to get
maximum use of his or her exhibit.
