The selection of Basketball Backstops depends on the individual building conditions. A few Standard Types are pictured. Porter Engineers invite your request for assistance in solving more specialized requirements. Attachment fittings, particularly where enclosed girders or suspended ceilings are involved, should be specified in the General Contracts, and installed during building construction. The exact location of each backstop should be on the center line of the court, 4 feet from the end out of bounds line, unless space prohibits (under no condition less than two feet). Out of bounds lines should be 10 feet from any obstruction, unless space prohibits (under no condition less than three feet).
