The aisles are the property of all the
exhibitors. Therefore, each exhibitor has
the responsibility to assure proper flow of
traffic through the entire show. Do not
place your demonstration areas on or close
to the aisle line of your exhibit. Leave
space within your own exhibit area to
accommodate all visitors. This
regulation applies even if your exhibit
booths are directly across the aisle from
each other.
No booth may span an aisle with an overhead
covering (such as fabric draping, roofing,
etc.). Exposed, unfinished sides and
backgrounds must be draped to present an
attractive appearance. If such draping is
not ordered, the decorator (with the
approval of Exhibit Management) will install
it and charge the exhibitor.
It is assumed that all exhibit personnel and
outside contractors involved in setting up
displays will be fully informed and
understand all exhibit design requirements
before they arrive to set up. ASHG Exhibit
Management will monitor all booth equipment
and space during and following installation
to ascertain that all exhibits conform to
these rules for set-up. In all
interpretations of the rules and
regulations, ASHG Exhibit Management's
decision is final.
Standard In-line Booths: The back
wall of the display is limited to 8' in
height with a depth of 5' from the back
wall. All display fixtures and accessories
(including but not limited to book racks,
instruments, and foliage) over 4' in height
must be confined to that area of the
exhibitor's space that is within 5' of the
back line. Display material in the remaining
5' of booth space must not exceed 4' in
height.

Corner Booths: The back wall of the
display is limited to 8' in height and a
depth of 5'. All display fixtures and
accessories (including but not limited to
book racks, instruments, and foliage) over
4' in height must be confined to that area
of the exhibitor's space that is within 5'
of the back line. Display material within 5'
of the back wall may not exceed 8' in
height. Side railing and drapes on the side
open to the aisle may be removed at the
request of the exhibitor with discretionary
approval of ASHG Exhibit Management. Exhibit
Management will determine approval based on
the finished and consistent appearance of
the open side.
Multiple Standard Booths: In an
exhibit that contains more than two in-line
booths (30' or more) the interior booths are
permitted to contain display up to 8' in
height but must be confined to that area of
the exhibitor's space that is within 5' of
the back line of the booth. And, the end
booths of such an exhibit must conform to
the 8' height limit of Standard Booth
restrictions within 5' from the back line of
the booth.

Peninsula Booths: Peninsula booths
are defined as configurations that take the
two corner spaces at the end of a main
aisle. Main aisles are aisles that run north
and south (main entrance on the enclosed
floor plan is at the southern end). Cross
aisles are those that run east and west.
Examples: taking the two spaces 328 and 330
would be an in-line configuration; however,
combining spaces 328 and 427 make a
peninsula configuration. If you are unsure
whether your booth is designed for a
peninsula configuration or an in-line
configuration, send diagrams of your booth
to Exhibit Management before the booth is
built or no less than 4 weeks before
exhibits open.
Island Booths: In island
configurations (bounded on four sides by
aisles) the full cubic content of the space
may be used. However, all display material
is restricted to 8' height and sufficient
see-through or walk-through area must be
provided so as not to block the view of
adjacent exhibits. Models or to-scale
drawings of cubic content exhibits must be
submitted in advance to Exhibit Management
for approval to avoid problems during
exhibit set up. To configure an island where
one does not already exist, a premium of
$1,000 will be added to the total cost of
the spaces used for exhibit area.
