Raised flooring
Only wooden or modular installations are allowed. If raised flooring is used, a 1m-wide access ramp is mandatory for wheelchairs, in compliance to ABNT’s standard NBR–9050). The ramp must be located within the boundaries of the leased area. Booths on areas smaller than 20m² and with no ramp must provide access to wheelchairs.

Glass walls
The maximum height for walls made of single glass panels is 3.5m, and they must be clearly indicated with safety warning tape. Above that height, glass panels must be reinforced with polyethylene terephthalate (PET), or panes made of polycarbonate, acrylic or laminated or tempered glass must be used.
It is strictly forbidden to bore holes or apply paints, glues or other materials onto the venue’s walls, floors, facilities or structures. No material or object should lean on or be supported by walls, columns or doors.

• A notice board with minimum 5cm-high lettering must be clearly visible in the stairways up, stating the maximum occupancy on the upper deck, both in terms of the number of people and the total weight in kilograms.
• For safety, in case the upper deck has railings facing the hall’s walkways, the deck must have a 1-metre clearance to the edge of the booth space.
• No glass parts are allowed on the upper deck. The only transparent materials allowed are acrylics, polycarbonate and the like.
• The Brazilian Association of Technical Standards rules that load-bearing structural parts of upper decks must be made of steel.
• The load-bearing structure must be dimensioned according to the load predicted in the project.
Islands, Island Edges or Corners
Under no circumstances should an island booth be completely walled to the facing lanes. At most 30% of linear length should be walled on each side of the booth with 6m maximum height.
Booths that reach above from the venue floor must have a clearance to neighbouring booths.
If the booth includes corners or island edges, it must obey the clearance table even if made of transparent glass walls.
