- Abstract
- The first part of the paper is devoted to conveying basic requirements as well as recent developments in the design of motion picture theaters with balconies to provide satisfactory conditions for all the basic considerations of proper motion picture presentation. The second part provides similar information pertaining to theaters with balconies Separate sections arc devoted to the dimensha1 and constructional features of balcony depth, sofit, and height; of the theater ceiling, sidewalls, and rear wall; and of the space above the balcony.
