Welcome to the AB Forum

Does anyone have floor plans of their field houses they could share?
Or design suggestions? Or guidelines on recommended proximity of offices to the locker rooms and gymnasium, recommended sizes of the different rooms, etc.

We are in the process of building a football/soccer turf field with 1,500 seats, lights, with a field house of about 5,000 to 6,000 sq ft. I am wondering what to how to plan out the layout of the field house for 90 boys and 70 girls that will have a weight room, storage, my office, showers/dressing office that will house four coaches, officials dress room, training room (w/ equipment).

I can help as our firm has designed a number of these over 50 years and have been specializing in recreation projects for the past 20years. You are welcome to call or email and I can give you the costs we are seeing and things you need to be aware of. 256-534-0657 eric@m2architects.com

Any guidance on how much the curved corner of a suspended jogging track can overhang the corner of a basketball court?

what is your height between the court floor and the bottom of your track?

Try searching on a book titled. American Standard.

Find the anthropometric Data. It is stated in the book all the dimensions that the man can occupy. It can help you in computing all the required space in your ongoing project.

This one might help you http://img.lib.msu.edu/structure/building-overview.pdf . This is in fact standard American floor planning.
