ABSTRACT
Next comes the seating capacity. If the pitch is to be of
variable size in order to cater for very different activities,
then the design capacity should be stated as two figures: the
number of seats around the maximum pitch size (perhaps
soccer or athletics) and the maximum capacity around
the smallest space user (perhaps the performers in a pop
concert, or a boxing ring). The stadium owners will have very
strong views on seating capacities as these form the basis of
their profitability calculations.
