There are estimation formulas that you can use in order to “right-size” the number of units that you will need. There are two charts one for events and the other for construction. The events chart is based on how many hours that the event will be taking place. The construction chart is based on a 40-hour work week, the number of employees and how many work shifts are being utilized.
The first step in event planning is to estimate how many guest will be attending you event and how many hours you expect the event to continue. With events, there are several other factors that will come in to play such as will alcohol be served and will there be a larger percentage of females to males. These are factors that will slightly increase the number of units that you may need.
Typically, you will add 20% to units where alcohol is involved and 15% for events with more women or 30-35% where both situations apply. You will also need to allow for handicapped units particularly at a public function to follow ADA compliance. After you determine how many units you need ensure that at least 10% of the total are handicapped units.
The planning charts will assist you in planning your upcoming event. It is based on the average number of people attending the event and the number of hours that the event will take place.
