How We Calculate This
Calculates the internal dimensions needed for a display case based on model sizes, clearances and shelf arrangement.
Formula
- Case width = (Models per row x (Model length + Clearance)) + Clearance
- Case depth = Model width + (2 x Clearance)
- Shelf spacing = Model height + Top clearance
- Case height = (Shelves x Shelf spacing) + Clearance + Base thickness
