Benching — Expert Answer
How much space per person does benching require?
The minimum allocation for benching is 48" of linear surface per seat, typically at 24"–30" depth. Back-to-back clusters of 4 seats commonly occupy a 48"×60" footprint — approximately 720 sq ft for 10 seats including circulation. For comfortable benching environments, plan 60"–70" per seat including aisle allowance.
