[/qb][/QUOTE]Obviously, I'm taking the thread off track (or is that Trek?). My apologies. Without further data on your estimates, the only thing I could do is to do my own deck placement analysis on your graphic ( such as http://www.trekbbs.com/showpost.php?p=2694976&postcount=5 ), and I would prefer to have your permission to do that (and would probably need higher resolution). So the 'clean sheet' approach in this case is to do deck placement based on window placement (window size can vary for aesthetic or structural reasons). My own method is probably about the same as your own. I would keep the large size windows (think 10-Forward or 'picture windows' intended for unobstructed viewing) during analysis. Somewhere in the space between the windows are the deck plates, estimate appropriate distance from the floor (humanoid figures are a help here to me), calculate deck clearance and inter-deck space (0.3m?). As long as deck clearance is something in the range of 6.5-10 feet (i.e., 54% wiggle room) I think you are good to go. If at that point you think the windows are a detriment go ahead and resize them (I don't think they are because one disrupter blast and they are gone whatever size they were, and the rest of the freighter a few minutes later). For what its worth. Happy designing! [/QB][/QUOTE]
