INFERENCE SHAPE AND SIZE - THE SIZE SHOULD BE FIXED IN RELATION TO THE NUMBER OF AUDIENCE REQUIRED TO BE SEATED.THE FLOOR AREA OF THE HALL INCLUDING, GANGWAYS(EXCLUDING THE STAGE)SHOULD BE CALCULATED ON THE BASIS OF 0.6 TO 0.9 sqm . PER PERSON. THE HEIGHT OF THE HALL IS DETERMINED BY SUCH CONSIDERATIONS AS VENTILATION, PRESENCE (OR ABSENCE)OF BALKONY AND THE TYPE OF PERFORMANCE . - FLOOR PLAN OF VARIOUS SHAPES ARE USED, BUT THE ONE WHICH IS CONSIDERED TO GIVE SATISFACTORY RESULTS WITHOUT INTRODUCING COMPLICATIONS IN THE ACOUSTICAL TREATMENT OF THE HALL IS THE FAN-SHAPED PLAN. THE PROSCENIUM MAY BEAR ANY SUITABLE RATIO WITH THE HEIGHT OF THE HALL TO SUIT STAGE REQUIREMENTS AND CONSIDERATIONS OF VIAIBILITY.THE SIDE WALLS SHOULD BE ARRANGED TO HAVE AN ANGLE OF NOT MORE THAN 100 DEGREES WITH THE CURTAIN LINE. IN THE CASE OF TALKING PICTURES SYNCHRONISATION OF SOUND WITP A LIP MOVEMENT IS MOST ESSENTIAL.ALSO, IN THE CASE OF THEATRES A PERSON WITH NORMAL VISION SHOULD BE ABLE TO DISCERN FACIALE EXPRESSIONS OF THE PERFORMERS. IN ORDER TO SATISFY THESE CONDITIONS,IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE DISTANCE OF THE FARTHEST SEAT FROM THE CURTAIN LINE SHOULD NOT NORMALLY EXCEED 24M.

VERANDAHS, ETC. -THE FOYER AREA,NUMBER AND SIZE OF ENTRANCES ALSO DEPEND ON THE SIZE AND SEATING CAPACITY OF THE AUDITORIUM. AT LEAST 20 PERCENT OF THE SEATING AREA OF THE HALL IS RECOMMENDED FOR FOYER. -FOR LOBBY AND LOUNGE, AREA AT LEAST CORRESPONDING TO 10 PERCENT OF THE LEATING AREA IN THE HALL ARE RECOMMENDED. -THE WIDTH OF A SEAT SHOULD BE BETWEEN 45 CM AND 56 CM AND IT IS 45 CM IN SHAH AUDITORIUM. -THE BACK TO BACK DISTANCE OF CHAIRS IN SUCCESSIVE ROWS OF SEATS SHAD BE AT LEAST 90 CM.
