A deposit, as determined by the Cobo Center General Manager in consideration of the costs of repairing the modifications, must be paid prior to the start of the modifications and will be held by Cobo Center until the repairs are completed to the satisfaction of Cobo Center. In the event that the repairs are not completed as described above, the deposit will be forfeited.

When marking your individual exhibit area, Cobo Center requires that you do not use paint. Cobo floors can be marked using chalk or approved tape, which must be removed during the scheduled move-out days.

Building Load Analysis and ApprovalsAll exhibit drawings must be signed and sealed by a Michigan licensed engineer (see Contacts) for static structural verification. Submittals must be made electronically & 2 hard copies in 11x17 (tabloid) format, signed and sealed by a Michigan licensed engineer. Electronic drawings should be submitted in addition to the hard copy’s to speed up reviews, but electronic drawings submitted as the sole documentation will not be accepted for this approval process.

After the exhibit structural drawings are signed and sealed, Cobo Center requires that Cobo Center’s Review Engineer approve exhibit drawings for all structural loads to be placed on the building floors, columns and ceilings prior to move-in. Please submit public exhibit/press exhibit structural load drawings as soon as possible, but no later than November 1. Press load drawings must be submitted no later than November 16. However, press drawings submitted separately from the exhibit structural loads at a date later than November I may incur additional hourly costs at a rate of $130.00 per hour.

Exhibitors scheduling a move-in date prior to November 14 must submit their drawings a minimum of three weeks prior to the move-in date (i.e., a move-in date of November 1 would require that drawings be submitted by October 7).

Any changes to the exhibitors’ design/structural loads that occur after the original submittal/approval must be resubmitted for approval. Please advise Cobo Centers Review Engineer as soon as possible if you will be resubmitting structural loads.

The cost for Cobo Center’s Review Engineer structural load approval is a non-refundable fee of $0.21 USD per contracted square foot (check to be payable to Chaves Associates, Inc., drawn on a U.S. bank and included with the drawing submittal). Any additional approval time due to changes or additions to the scope of work will be charged in addition to the base fee at a cost of $130.00 per hour and time-and-a-half for overtime, if applicable. Cobo Center’s Review Engineer will be approving the structural load drawing based on the following criteria:

Load CapacityThe Cobo Center floor specification is constructed to hold the following weights:

Halls A, B, C and D 300 lbs. per square foot

Hall E 650 lbs. per square foot

Certain areas of Hall B and Hall C have lower floor loading capacities of 220 lbs. per square foot. Contact Rajiv Chopra at [email protected], 313.877.8201, for the size and location of these areas.

Suspended SignageHanging of signs, drapes, etc., must be arranged through the show contractor, Convention & Show Services (CSS). All signs, regardless of size, should be constructed of lightweight flameproof cardboard, metals, plastics, etc. No signs are to be hung from any Cobo Center building electrical fixtures, water, gas/air/fire protection piping, supports or hangars. All electrical and neon signs must conform to electrical codes required by Cobo Center.

DESIGN PHASE

Field MeasurementsShow Management will provide a dimensioned layout of each exhibitor’s space at Cobo Center as well as the general location of building structures that are in or adjacent to the exhibitor’s space (i.e., columns, building walls, concession stands).

It is the exhibitor’s responsibility to determine, through field measurements, definitive dimensions as to the location of such structures that may have a bearing on the fabrication of the exhibitor’s properties. Exhibitors will be notified when the Cobo Center floor has been laid out and is available for field measurements.

When marking your individual exhibit area, Cobo Center requires that you do not use paint. Cobo floors can be marked using chalk or approved tape which must be removed during the scheduled move-out days.

Safety Code ComplianceExhibitors must comply with all federal and state laws, including but not limited to MIOSHA, ADA, Michigan Barrier Free, and IBC, all Rules and Regulations prescribed by the management of the building and Show Management, and the Police and Fire Departments of the City of Detroit. Compliance with applicable laws and regulations is the sole responsibility of the exhibitor.

During the course of the show, if events occur which may cause hazardous or unsafe conditions to attendees of the show in the exhibit space, the exhibitor will take precautions to identify the area and provide appropriate corrective action to protect the safety of the public.

Aisles to Exhibit Transition: Flooring must be flush or ramped at a maximum pitch of two inches for every 12 inches. No lips. Ramps must have non-slippage material, cautionary signage if necessary, and comply with legal requirements.

Exhibit to Exhibit Transition: Flooring must be flush or ramped at a maximum pitch of two inches for every 12 inches. No lips. Ramps must have non-slippage material, cautionary signage if necessary, and comply with legal requirements. Floor surfaces should be such that the “skid strips,” etc., allow for ease of cleaning during and/or after show hours. In the absence of a transition agreement between contiguous exhibitors, exhibits shall be at floor level at three feet from the exhibitor’s boundary between contiguous exhibits. As a guide, the exhibitor with the higher floor shall provide for the transition between exhibits. Any deviations must be approved by Show Management. NAIAS encourages neighboring exhibits with contiguous borders to share floor plans and resolve issues prior to set-up.

Design Approval ProcessYou must submit a preliminary floor plan to the Exhibit Compliance Department ([email protected]) by November 1. Preliminary plans should strive to have all large structures in their final locations. Show Management will review the plan with the fire marshal and provide feedback and initial approvals. The same preliminary plan can then be sent to Johnson Controls (JCI) for fire alarm panel placement. Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical will maintain contact with JCI to receive the preliminary plan to be submitted to the City of Detroit, Building and Safety Engineering Department, for necessary stamps and approvals.

Final Floor plans must be resubmitted no later than January 5. All changes from the preliminary plan must be called out and labeled. Final plans and a summary of updates from the preliminary submission should be made available during final inspections.

All exhibit designs submitted for approval must include:

• FORM 1AS

• Engineering plans with dimensions of each level (two story/multi-level).

• Engineering plans with dimensions defining all applicable easements and dimensions of exhibit components.

• Elevation views from all sides defining dimensions of all applicable easements.

• Plan and elevation view of lighting truss and ceiling scrim with dimensions, trim height and relationship to the exhibit space, aisles and contiguous neighbors.

• Plan and elevation view of all suspended components and signs with structure dimensions, trim height and defining easement dimensions.

• Renderings of exhibit from several points of view.

Design ChangesForm 1AS must be resubmitted if changes affecting easements occur after the original submission approval. Approval or denial will be confirmed in writing by Show Management.

Press Event Approval ProcessAll press event designs submitted for approval must abide by all the same requirements as above under design approval process, plus the addition of the layout of audience seating and media platform(s).

Request for VarianceRequests for variances must be submitted concurrently with the submittal of requests for exhibit and press event approvals. Form 8AS must be submitted, no verbal requests or approvals will be given consideration. Approval or denial will be confirmed in writing by Show Management.

DISPLAY COMPLETION

Exhibit Fit and FinishA standard of exhibit fit and finish is expected to be provided by each exhibitor. Poor fit and finish such as unfinished exposed surfaces, poor quality and makeshift structures that reflect poorly on the overall appearance of the show, determined at the discretion of Show Management, will not be permitted. The exhibitor will be required to bring the exhibit up to standard.

Show Management reserves the right to have an exhibitor remove portions of a stand that were not approved or included on the exhibit print submitted to Show Management. Show Management also reserves the right to have an exhibitor remove portions of a display, which upon set-up, are not aesthetically acceptable to Show Management. An exhibitor will be responsible for costs associated with removal of such parts of displays.

Exhibit areas less than 5,000 square feet may be subject to additional restrictions or exclusions of rules due to space limitations, at the discretion of Show Management.

Show Management will have an inspector on the show floor during set-up to enforce all rules and regulations prior to and during the building of exhibit structures.

Floor Covering/Raised FloorsEach exhibitor’s space must have floor covering, but floor covering must not be sealed to the building floor in such a fashion as to damage or deface the floor, or be installed in such a manner as to pose a safety hazard. Exhibitors are responsible for the final condition of the floor in their space.

When marking your individual exhibit area, Cobo Center requires that you do not use paint. Cobo floors can be marked using chalk or approved tape which must be removed during the scheduled move-out days.

ColumnsExhibitors must decorate the columns within their area up to a height of 29 feet in Hall A, Hall B, Hall C and Hall D and up to 18 feet in Hall E. In Hall E, air vents and emergency lights are located on the columns and cannot be covered or obstructed. Shared columns must be decorated by adjoining exhibitors to the extent included within the exhibit space.

Exhibitor must relocate all fire extinguishers enclosed by the exhibitor’s column cover to the exterior of the column cover to a position approved by the Fire Marshal.

Exhibitor is responsible for duplicating fire extinguisher signage to a visual position on the outside of the column cover.

Upon completion of the show, all fire extinguishers and signage must be returned to their original position.

Fire alarms, including hearing impaired fire alarms, cannot be covered or blocked by exhibit materials or curtains.

Press PreviewProtective coverings over installed carpet should be scheduled for removal on Thursday, January 5, in preparation for aisle carpet.

All exhibit construction must be complete by Saturday, January 7.

Press Preview begins on Monday, January 9 through Tuesday, January 10. Exhibits must be fully operational and staffed for Press Preview. A Press Conference Schedule will be available in December on the NAIAS website, naias.com.

Concerns have been expressed about expectations for special set-up and dismantling of displays during Press Preview, and also the building of new display(s) prior to the Public Show opening. As a result, exhibitors that are planning a special set for their press conference must review their set-up and dismantle schedule with Show Management by December 1 and receive written approval prior to set-up.

Show Management will require exhibitors with approved special sets for Press Preview to work through the night to completely reconstruct exhibits prior to the opening of the Industry Preview and Public Show.

To maintain a professional appearance for media attending during Press Preview and also as a courtesy to all exhibitors, construction or dismantling cannot occur during press events without Show Management approval.

BleachersBleachers and chairs are prohibited in the aisles. Bleachers and chairs can be used during Press Preview providing they are within the exhibitor’s space and comply with easement and setback rules. Chairs must be removed immediately following the completion of the press conference. Any deviations from this rule are subject to Show Management approval.

DrapingAll drapes must be flame-retardant and exhibitor must have a certificate available on site.

Draping may be used, subject to Show Management’s discretion and approval, to cover large structure(s) or unveiling area(s) during set up and Press Preview; it must be set back a minimum of ten feet from the aisle and contiguous borders. Any other movement of drape during press conferences must be approved by Show Management.

DRYWALLApproval must be obtained prior to any drywall work. Contact Rajiv Chopra at [email protected] or 313.877.8201 regarding requirements for drywall construction.

EASEMENTS – MAIN FLOOR EXHIBITS

Contiguous Border AgreementsContiguous border exhibitors may negotiate, between themselves, easement agreements that grant variances from the show easement rules. Such variance agreements require Show Management approval and will be granted if they are considered to be in the best interest of the show. Exhibitors involved must submit the Contiguous Border Agreement Form 6AS to Show Management for final approval.

During negotiations of variance issues, exhibitors must reveal to their contiguous exhibitor(s) and Show Management all exhibit elements requiring a variance that are within 15 feet of the contiguous border.

Public Access Requirements40% or less of exhibit display area may be comprised of vehicles and structures, thus allowing a minimum of 60% of open area for attendees and floor traffic. (Calculate by subtracting all non-public accessible display area and all vehicle-dedicated area from gross exhibit area and divide by gross exhibit area.)

Gross exhibit area - (Non-public display area + Vehicle-dedicated area) = Attendees and floor traffic space Gross exhibit area (Must be > 60%)

Ground floor levels, raised floors, and elevated platforms in the exhibit display area accessible to the attendees and floor traffic will be included in calculating the percentage of space area for attendees and floor traffic.

Levels above the ground level of a two-story structure will not be included in calculating percentage of open area for attendees and floor traffic.

Stanchioned areas may be excluded from this requirement with Show Management approval; otherwise exhibitor must abide by stanchion rule.

Easements-VerticalAll exhibitor space easements also apply vertically to suspended structures and signs within an exhibitor’s air space.

Height RestrictionsExhibitors’ displays that exceed height restrictions and/or vary from that which has been approved by Show Management will require modification to conform to show regulations.

StanchionsRail or roped off areas must be a minimum of four feet from the aisle and four feet from contiguous exhibit border.

VehiclesVehicles must be a minimum of two feet from aisles and contiguous exhibit borders.

Two-Story/Multi-Level or Large Solid Structures (Non-Perimeter)Two-story/multi-level or large solid structures including suspended structures (as determined by Show Management) are acceptable, but may not be located within designated easement areas. Any deviation from this rule is subject to Show Management approval. Refer to Cobo Center Structural Properties Drawings for maximum hanging loads per truss panel point. These drawings and CAD files (Auto CAD 2000 format) are available by contacting Cobo Center.

• Aisle Side Easement: 25 feet or 25% of exhibit space depth (calculated by measuring the distance from aisle to opposite side border), whichever is less.

• Contiguous Border Easement: Minimum of ten feet or ten percent of exhibit space depth (calculated by measuring the distance from contiguous exhibit border to opposite side border), whichever is less.

• Height: Maximum exhibit structure height is 25 feet (15 feet in Hall E).

• Traffic Flow: Within the 25% set-back from the aisle (in which no major structure may be built) certain structures (video walls, turntables, signs, etc.) are allowed. The placement of such structures must not create extensive visual or physical barriers as viewed or approached from the main aisle, side aisles or contiguous borders.

• Arches, stanchions, balustrades, handrails, cantilevered glass barriers, etc., and/or other openings, specifically those located in non-public access areas, may be exempt. Show Management reserves the right to review such layouts and to require changes that would be in the best interest of the show.

• Aisles: All show floor aisle space is to facilitate ease of public movement and emergency access/egress. Aisle space is not part of the exhibitor’s space except in situations that involve overhead rigging or scrim. Exhibitors are required to stay within the exhibitor’s space, and the aisles adjoining their exhibits must remain free and clear of any exhibitor’s display materials or equipment, from the floor to the ceiling, at all times.

Any deviations from these rules are subject to Show Management approval.

Two-Story/Multi-Level or Large Solid Structures (Perimeter)Two-story/multi-level or large solid structures including suspended structures (as determined by Show Management) are acceptable, but may not be located within designated easement areas. Two-story structures that border the east wall of the hall must maintain a ten-foot aisle/safety corridor between the building wall and any exhibit structure under the overhang. Any deviation from this rule is subject to Show Management approval. Refer to Cobo Center Structural Properties Drawings for maximum hanging loads per truss panel point. These drawings and CAD files (Auto CAD 2000 format) are available by contacting Cobo Center.

• Aisle Side Easement: 40 feet or 40% of exhibit space depth (calculated by measuring the distance from aisle to opposite side border abutting the wall), whichever is less.

• Perimeter exhibitors with multiple brand exhibits totaling 100,000 square feet or more must provide a large structure set back easement from the aisle of 25 feet.

• Entrance and Egress Aisles Easement: Exhibit display must allow a no-build zone easement of 20 feet, as measured from main entrance/egress aisles.

• Contiguous Border Easement: Minimum of three feet calculated by measuring the distance from contiguous exhibit border to opposite side border.

• Height: Maximum exhibit structure height is 25 feet (15 feet in Hall E).

• Traffic Flow: Within the 40% set-back from the aisle (in which no major structure may be built) certain structures such as video walls, turntables, signs, etc., are allowed. The placement of such structures must not create extensive visual or physical barriers as viewed or approached from the main aisle, side aisles or contiguous borders.

• Arches, stanchions, balustrades, handrails, cantilevered glass barriers, etc., and/or other openings, specifically those located in non-public access areas, may be exempt. Show Management reserves the right to review such layouts and to require changes that would be in the best interest of the show.

• Aisles: All show floor aisle space is to facilitate ease of public movement and emergency access/egress. Aisle space is not part of the exhibitor’s space except in situations that involve overhead rigging or scrim. Exhibitors are required to stay within the exhibitor’s space, and the aisles adjoining their exhibits must remain free and clear of any exhibitor’s display materials or equipment, from the floor to the ceiling, at all times.

Any deviations from these rules are subject to Show Management approval.

Perimeter Exhibit Back WallsExhibitors on perimeter walls are encouraged to utilize the walls as part of their space. However, contiguous exhibitors are encouraged to discuss their wall decoration so as to have design conformance and continuity of height to the adjoining area, such as a bordering aisle or exhibit.

Contiguous exhibitors should build their back walls to the edge of their spaces in order to create the continuity of a continuous back wall. Other than the back wall variance, the easement rules applying to any other class of exhibit structure remain in effect.

If not completely covered by exhibitors’ display wall or signage, the perimeter wall must be draped to a height of 29 feet.

StepsSteps may be allowed within large structure areas and in easement areas. Steps to publicly accessible platforms within easement areas must abide by set-back requirements of two feet from an aisle and six feet from any contiguous border.

Riser height to any elevated area/platform must be a minimum of six inches and must not exceed seven inches. A ramp (rather than a step) must provide public access to any elevated area/platform lower than six inches.

All publicly accessible platforms must abide by the International Building Code. A single rise platform does not require hand rails; however, good judgment must be used to define a change in elevation. Multiple rise platforms have precautionary requirements as defined in the code book.

Display SignageSignage or other exhibit structure may not substantially block the view of another exhibit, and is subject to the approval of Show Management. No signage shall be placed in or on the building walls and ceilings by nails, tacks, screws, wire or adhesive tape without prior approval of Show Management. (See Alterations to Cobo Center, below.)

No signage of any kind is allowed above the 25-foot height restriction, unless it is part of a perimeter wall decoration; prior Show Management approval is required.

Any sign (structure that holds a brand or model name, turntable or platforms with branding, typical display structures, kiosks-hanging or otherwise, etc.) more than five feet wide and two feet deep must be set back a minimum of 15 feet from the contiguous border and two feet from an aisle.

Any signage that is less than five feet wide and two feet deep must be set back a minimum of two feet from an aisle and six feet from the contiguous exhibitor.

This rule also applies to signage suspended from the ceiling.

Any ceiling-suspended structure may not exceed 25 feet as measured from the floor. The placement of structural loads as designed by the manufacturer’s exhibit engineer for the suspended ceiling must be signed and sealed by a licensed Michigan engineer and then reviewed and approved by the Cobo Center’s Review Engineer. Prior Show Management approval is also required.

Cobo Center Building SignageNo exhibitor shall in any manner whatsoever obstruct an exit or aisle signage at any time. Exit signage may not be obstructed in any way. Exhibitor must replace, and supplement, if necessary, all obstructed or covered exit signage on walls and columns.

Any restroom signage that is covered or obstructed by a display must be replaced/supplemented, if necessary, as determined by Cobo Center at the exhibitor’s expense.

Cobo Center graphics, signs or displays may not be blocked in any manner. During move-out, following the event, all wires, hooks, and hanging materials used to hang signs must be removed. (See Load Capacity.)

ELECTRICAL

Important 2018 NAIAS InformationThere are some additional safety procedures that are being required by the City of Detroit, Building and Safety Engineering Department - Electrical Division. They are as follows:

1. All equipment must bear a North American listing mark as evidence of evaluation by a testing laboratory approved by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).

2. Product description sheets, including listing information, must be submitted 45 days in advance to Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical for review and approval by the City of Detroit Electrical Inspection Division before placement.

3. Any dimming equipment employing solid-state phase control technology will be installed under requirements contained in Article 520 of the National Electric Code.

4. Platform scaffolding and floor sheathing will be of a non-combustible material and are to be installed by electricians, if used only to support electrical equipment. Engineered drawings and bill of material are to be provided with each platform to be installed.

5. Platform will have smoke detection devices installed and connected to the building fire alarm system.

6. Platforms will have approved fire suppression equipment (CO2 fire extinguishers).

7. Platforms are to be monitored by an electrician during show/event hours.

2 0 1 8 E X H I B I T O R M A N U A L

8. Lighting and A/V distribution equipment shall not be stored on building electrical platforms and/or catwalks. If overhead storage space is required, the Exhibitor must provide platform.

9. All Equipment should be labeled with Exhibit and Provider names.

Electrical WorkAll electrical work in connection with exhibits must conform strictly to the rules and regulations of the City of Detroit Buildings and Safety Engineering Department and NFPA 70, 70E, National Electrical Codes (NEC) and current MIOSHA standards. Exhibitors desiring special connections in their spaces for the purpose of operating electrical motors, or for other uses, shall notify Show Management upon acceptance of their space. All such work is subject to supervision and direction by the exhibitor, and shall be paid for by the individual exhibitor. These connections will be charged at prices made as part of a special electrical order. All exhibit and exhibit hall electrical installations, connections and disconnections must be obtained exclusively through Cobo Center’s electrical contractor, Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical.

Exhibitor personnel will be permitted to work on and calibrate their own specialized equipment. Cobo Electrical/Conti-HTE must do hard-wiring. (Details are outlined in contractor’s electrical order form which will be included in the CSS Service Manual.) Conti-HTE provides and installs all equipment for electrical distribution where concealed in wall, under floor or above ceiling, except for specialty systems, such as Euro power systems.

All displays must supply wiring chases or raceways for installation of any electrical wiring or cabling.

All electrical requirements must be submitted to the show’s approved electrical contractor, Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, 313.259.7700, 30 days prior to any installation of any part of the display.

All cables (electric, communication, fire alarm, video, data, etc.) run outside the booth (through and into ceiling, floors, catwalks, walls) must be labeled every 25 feet with the following information: 2018 NAIAS, Exhibitor Name/Contractor responsible for installation. All cables must be removed at the completion of the show.

Client provided cable cannot be “bundled”. This typically applies to single conductor #4/0 cables that are tied together at regular intervals to make a set of #4/0 cables. Tying the cable together creates hot spots (areas of significantly higher than normal temperatures), which present a potential fire hazard.

Not including LED Wall/Panel, monitors that are being used for anything other than press or a live feed are to be installed by electricians.

TransformersAll exhibitors will need to make provisions for storing or housing transformers necessary to provide power for electrical requirements within their booth area. Transformers in an exhibit area should be secured and covered by a solid structure so as to prevent injury. There will be no provisions for “flying” or suspending transformers from the ceiling at Cobo Center. Please contact Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, Event Services, 313.259.7700, if you require further information.

UL Listed Electrical Systems and Equipment All electrical systems and equipment need to be UL Listed. Those that are not UL Listed will need to be inspected by TUV SUD. Any exhibit requiring a TUV SUD inspection is to inform Show Management. Show Management will then ensure that testing is scheduled with TUV SUD.

Please contact Andrea Trudeau at [email protected] or 248.283.5136 to notify of need for TUV SUD inspection.

EXHIBIT CONSTRUCTION SITE MAINTENANCE

Crate StorageExhibitors must make arrangements to have crates freighted out of Cobo Center and stored off-site. There is NO storage space available in the Cobo dock area for exhibitor crates and materials. All racks, non-stackable or non-cubed crates must be removed from the premises when emptied and returned at the close of the show, at the exhibitor’s expense. Please contact Convention & Show Services (CSS) for assistance, 313.259.7632; fax 313.259.1263.

Pallets and Bulk Refuse RemovalPallets, wood, crates, carpet pad and other refuse will be removed from the building and loading docks as soon as possible by Convention & Show Services (CSS). CSS will bill the exhibitor accordingly for the removal of their bulk refuse. Please contact CSS for further information, 313.259.7632; fax 313.259.1263.

FIRE EMERGENCY AND LIFE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS

Fire Alarms and Life Safety DevicesIt is the responsibility of the exhibitor to know which fire and safety sensors will be covered by exhibit structure and exhibit material. The exhibitor must make arrangements, at the exhibitor’s expense, through Johnson Controls to make the necessary changes based on the following:

• Fire alarms (including hearing impaired strobe lights and pull stations) located on the walls and columns, must be visible from the floor to a height of 25 feet. Fire alarm devices and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) sensors cannot be covered or blocked by exhibit materials or curtains.

• Fire alarm panels, initiating and indicating appliances for the display booths shall be provided and commissioned exclusively by Johnson Controls. Exhibitors will be invoiced for this service by Johnson Controls. Exhibitors are responsible for providing Johnson Controls with CAD file (.dwg) display drawings which at minimum show all levels of the display, with major sub-structures clearly indicated, including reflective ceiling views, by October 31. Any design changes that occur after the original submittal must be resubmitted as soon as possible to minimize the approved drawing turnaround time. All fire alarm equipment that was retained by the exhibitor from the previous NAIAS show must be returned by November 30 for operational testing before installation this year.

• Any system device that is impeded by a display must be retrofitted to satisfy the requirements of the Fire Marshal. All fire system work necessary to meet this retrofit requirement and to return the system back to the normal condition must be completed by Johnson Controls and Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical at the expense of the exhibitor. Though Johnson Controls-engineered fire alarm drawings are approved by the Fire Marshal’s office, alterations to the final system design may be made based on display inspections by the Fire Marshal. Exhibitors are responsible for contacting Johnson Controls at 248.444.6357, for all fire alarm needs.

• All cables (electric, communication, fire alarm, video, data, etc.) that run outside the booth (through and into ceiling, floors, catwalks, walls) must be labeled every 25 feet with the following information: Exhibitor Name/Contractor responsible for installation. All cables must be removed by the completion of the show.

• Should the visual strobe light fire alarm signals activate in any display with an internal fire alarm system, either Cobo Center personnel or Detroit Fire Department will break open display doors to gain access if display security personnel are not present or suitably responsive for the type of action required.

• All displays with an internal fire alarm system must have display doors that provide 24-hour access to the main fire alarm panel and must be labeled accordingly.

There are additional requirements for displays with internal fire alarm systems and displays which obstruct Cobo Center life safety devices. The following procedures will apply when:

• Displays have internal fire alarm systems in the booth.

• Displays obstruct Cobo Center’s life safety devices. (Life safety devices include fire alarm pull stations, visual fire annunciators, i.e., strobe lights, smoke detectors, and heat detectors.)

• Displays have ceilings and upper decks that are not “smoked out” and approved by the Fire Marshall.

When the above condition exists, connectivity of the display’s internal fire alarm panel to Cobo Center’s will be required. Displays that obstruct Cobo Center’s life safety devices but do not have an internal fire system must have the obstructed devices replaced with like devices that connect to Cobo Center’s fire alarm panel. Cobo Center’s fire alarm panel, and the expansion panels that the display fire alarm systems and devices connect to, are maintained by Johnson Controls.

Each exhibit internal fire alarm panel must have the capability to manually activate (via a pull station box) the display’s internal fire alarm strobes in the case of a fire emergency.

It should be noted that the final connections of the display’s internal fire alarm system and the installation and connection of any internal fire alarm system to the main fire alarm expansion panel must be made by Johnson Controls and Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical. There will be a connection and installation fee charged to the exhibitor.

Temporary units (pull stations, strobes, signal devices, annunciators, heat or smoke detectors, or other) installed or relocated shall be on a separate Fire Alarm permit form procured from Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical listing only fire alarm items. The minimum base permit fees are located in the City of Detroit, Building and Safety Engineering Department fee schedule and are invoiced through Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical along with associated permit fees, materials, equipment, installation and removal labor and all necessary required inspections to receive final approval from the City of Detroit.

Inspection dates for emergency lighting and fire alarm systems have been established as January 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12 plus JCI Testing one week prior. Any exhibitor not ready to test the emergency lighting and fire alarm systems within their exhibit on the dates as specified is required to establish new inspection dates with Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical. Scheduling inspection on dates other than these dates may incur additional costs.

Any system devices that are impeded by a display must be retrofitted to satisfy applicable building codes. All emergency lighting system devices work necessary to meet this retrofit requirement and to return the system back to the normal condition must be completed by Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical at the expense of the exhibitor. All work necessary to return the emergency lighting system to its normal condition must be done within the move-out dates of the NAIAS.

If you have any questions regarding the compliance of a display to the Fire Alarms and Life Safety Devices rule, please contact Glen Schmidt at Johnson Controls, 248.444.6357 or [email protected].

Fire MarshalAll exhibitors must have their floor plans and construction/finish materials approved for Life/Safety Code compliance. Preliminary floor plans should be submitted no later than November 1. Preliminary plans will be reviewed by the Fire Marshal and the NAIAS Exhibit Compliance Manager. Tentative approval will be granted by the Fire Marshal based on the apparent adherence to the fire codes. Final approval will follow an on-site inspection after the completion of the exhibit. Please contact Andrea Trudeau at [email protected] with any questions.

Except as otherwise provided by special rulings from the Detroit Fire Marshal, the following regulations of the Detroit Fire Department will prevail.

a) Cobo Center is a smoke-free building and smoking is not permitted anywhere in the building during set-up, dismantle, Preview Week or Public Show.

b) The area in front of the building and all exits must be free of parking or storage.

c) Each Cobo Center emergency exit has a no-build zone. The exits along the east wall (main entry to/exit from the hall) have zones in size determined by the length of the doors with a depth of 20 feet. The exits along the north, south and west walls of the hall have no-build zones in size determined by the length of the doors with a depth of 12 feet. Within the no-build zones an exhibitor may not place any structure (including raised flooring) or vehicles. The no-build zones must be free and clear of any obstructions. Carpeting or other minimal dimensional material may be used to cover the building floor in a no-build zone within an exhibitor’s space. Refer to the NAIAS Floor Plan to determine if there is a no-build zone within your exhibit space. Exhibitors along the south building wall with raised floors that extend across the full width of fire exit doors must provide ADA-compliant access ramps to the door. All easements in front of fire exit doors must be approved by the Fire Marshal. Such easements must be clearly defined on submittals to the Fire Marshal.

d) All aisles to exits and fire exit doors shall be maintained free and clear at all times. Aisles to exits and emergency doors shall not be blocked at any time by tables, chairs, benches or other obstructions. No exhibitor shall in any manner whatsoever obstruct exit or aisle signage at any time. Exhibitor must replace covered exit signage on walls and columns.

e) All fire extinguishing equipment and signage must be unobstructed at all times.

f) A solid structure or turntable directly adjacent to exit doors cannot block exit doors. No exhibitor shall in any manner whatsoever obstruct an exit or aisle at any time.

g) Access to drinking fountains and entrances to restrooms and signage must not be blocked or obstructed. Any restroom signage that is covered or obstructed by a display must be replaced/supplemented, if necessary, as determined by Cobo Center and at the exhibitor’s expense.

h) When submitting material samples to the City of Detroit Fire Marshal, please include Fire Marshal Material Submission Form 2AS. All submissions must be in English and received by October 31.

i) All draperies, backdrops, bunting and other decorations must be flameproof. All paper and other flimsy materials used for decorative purposes, including flameproof paper, are prohibited. The use of a heavy cardboard shall be permitted in limited amounts. Exhibitor must provide certificate of fire rating.

j) Cut trees, branches and shrubs are prohibited, unless maintained in soil in a natural state. Any cut trees or plants not in soil must be fire retardant. All decorative ground cover must be fire retardant.

k) The use of liquefied petroleum gases shall not be permitted unless approved by the Fire Marshal.

l) Disconnected batteries, locked gas caps and the key to gas caps must be retained with specified people in each exhibit until required at move-out. Gas tanks may contain a maximum of two gallons of gasoline.

m) The use of open flame or the storage and handling of flammable liquids, chemicals or harmful hazardous substances are prohibited unless approved by the Fire Marshal or applicable agency. No flammable paints, solvents, or pyrotechnics of any kind may be stored on Cobo Center property at any time.

n) Combustible crates and packing boxes must be removed to the proper storage area after set-up period.

o) Additional fire extinguishing equipment, as determined by the Fire Marshal, must be located throughout the area occupied by exhibitor at the exhibitor’s expense.

p) Multi-level exhibits must have smoke detectors and a sprinkler system installed in their display. The sprinkler system cannot be connected to the existing water supply in the hall. A sprinkler system is not required if the exhibitor provides at its own expense 24 hour security at its display. Sprinkler systems are subject to written approval from the Detroit Fire Marshal.

q) A fire alarm panel, unique to the display’s fire detector system, will be necessary for the NAIAS. This panel must be marked “Fire Alarm Panel,” and accessible to inspection during set-up and the show. All fire detectors must be hard-wired to this panel. Fire detectors are to be placed in all closed rooms, or every 30 linear feet under a two-story/multi-level structure. This includes audio/visual and storage rooms measuring more than 64 square feet.

r) All pull box stations and hearing-impaired strobe light alarms, whether part of the display’s internal fire alarm or that of the existing building, must be exposed outside of any drape or covering so that they are readily available and visible to occupants. This includes those mounted on columns and perimeter walls.

Cobo Center’s fire alarm pull station boxes must be relocated on the outside of any drape covering them, including columns and perimeter walls and including exhibits that have their own fire alarm systems.

s) Fire Marshal approval of fire system is required for all exhibitors with a double-deck structure. The City of Detroit Fire Marshal must approve exhibitor’s fire system prior to January 1.

t) The upper deck of a two-story/multi-level structure accommodating more than 50 people will require two means of egress.

u) Concourse exhibits for Press Week and Public Show dates must have exit signage.

v) No pyrotechnic exhibits or events are allowed at Cobo Center at any time for any event, private showings, press conferences and/or public events. Artificially created smoke has the potential of setting off the building fire alarm system. Therefore, the smoke used in an exhibit must be approved by the Fire Marshal and Cobo Center management, including a dry run before December 23.

w) Scrim coverings and/or lighting ceiling material that may obstruct the Cobo Center fire suppression system must be submitted to the City of Detroit Fire Marshal in the form of a sample, measuring no less than one square foot by one square foot (one meter square) for approval. This material must be accompanied by a UL or FM rated certificate that proves quick burn-away and be included with floor plan for approval. (Capt. Dwayne Small, 313.596.2932, [email protected]).

x) An overall ceiling structure may not be built from solid material (i.e., wood, drywall, cement, etc.). No material that impedes the function of the building’s fire suppression equipment will be permitted. Porous or smoke-out material, with the Fire Marshal’s approval, may be used.

y) All enclosed exhibits measuring 100 square feet or more, including two-story exhibits must have hard-wired smoke detectors tied into the building’s system. Smoke detectors must be wired into their own dedicated 24 hour electrical power source. (See Fire Alarm and Life Safety Devices for additional information.)

All exhibitors are required to comply with the above directives set forth above by the Fire Marshal. All certificates must be on site for the final inspection. Final compliance approval will be granted only after an inspection following the completion of all phases of installation.

Fire ExtinguishersAll exhibitors having a building column in their exhibit area marked with a red “Fire” notice are required to have a fire extinguisher at that location. If one is not there, please call Cobo Center Event Services, 313.877.8777.

Exhibitor is responsible for relocating fire extinguishers and proper signage on the outside of any decorated columns in their exhibit.

Upon completion of the show, all fire extinguishers must be returned to their original position.

Exhibitors must have two dry chemical-type fire extinguishers in their booths at all times during Press Preview week and Public Show. The extinguishers must be positioned at an accessible location known to the booth staff.

A fire extinguisher must be positioned at any work site on the show floor where grinding and/or welding is taking place.

Building and Fire CodesExhibitor assumes total liability for physical damage or personal injury resulting from the installation, operation or dismantling of the exhibit. Exhibitor assumes total responsibility for fabricating and maintaining exhibit pursuant to all applicable local, state and national building and fire codes. Failure of an exhibitor to adhere to or comply with these codes may subject the exhibitor to additional liability in connection with such failure or negligence. Exhibitor has agreed to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Show Management. To purchase the International Building Code (IBC) Handbook please visit shop.iccsafe.org.

Hazardous or Unsafe ConditionsDuring the course of the show (including move-in and move-out periods), if events occur which may cause hazardous or unsafe conditions to attendees, exhibitors, patrons and workers of the show in the exhibit space, the exhibitor will take precautions to identify the area and provide corrective action.

Saws used to cut material must be connected to a dust collection device to minimize the amount of airborne sawdust created by the cutting of the material. Paint, varnish, polyurethane, or other liquid finishing must be applied by roller, brush or sponge application. Lacquer, lacquer thinner or acetone are not allowed in the building. These materials may not be applied in the building using spray or other airborne application methods.

LABOR REQUIREMENTS

Union LaborAll exhibit and display work in Cobo Center is done by union personnel. Labor required by individual exhibitors for the purpose of erecting and dismantling exhibits shall be obtained from the local unions having jurisdiction, unless authorized by Convention & Show Services (CSS), the general contractor. There are six unions doing this work; teamsters, iron workers, carpenters, stagehands, electricians, and plumbers.

CSS is a labor service provider for carpenter labor and is the exclusive labor service provider for all teamster and iron worker labor.

Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical is the exclusive labor service provider for all electricians.

Cobo Center is the exclusive provider for all plumbers and all stagehand labor.

Forklifts and All Other Power EquipmentAlthough minimal labor may be ordered on the show floor during Press Preview, Industry Preview and the Public Show (e.g., set-up and removal of chairs, sweeping), no power equipment is allowed to be used until the events each day are concluded. Minimal labor activities cannot interfere with other exhibitors’ press conferences in progress.

2 0 1 8 E X H I B I T O R M A N U A L

Please refer to Work Schedule. Show Management requires strict adherence to this rule and reserves the right to impose a financial penalty of $5,000.00 for each instance an exhibitor is not in compliance with this rule.

MAN LIFTS/GENIE LIFTS: No single man lift will be allowed for use on the show floor except for special circumstances for which specific approval must be obtained from Convention & Show Services (CSS). (Special circumstances may include use in areas where standard lifts are not feasible, i.e., raised floors, etc.). Supervision of lift usage, on-site inspection, and safety compliance of such equipment, i.e., outriggers, safety rails, etc., is the responsibility of CSS.

LIGHTING AND SCRIMS

Lighting, Fixture Positioning, Rigging and Electrical EquipmentThe structural loads imposed by all rigging (display rigging and press rigging, equipment platform rigging and emergency lights) from the overhead steel must be approved prior to installation by the Cobo Center’s Review Engineer. The rigging and support equipment (i.e., lighting distribution equipment) will not be raised from the floor or placed into or on building overhead steel without this confirmed approval. Spotlights or floodlights used to illuminate a particular vehicle, feature of a vehicle, or an exhibit, must be placed in an inconspicuous location and so directed as not to cast their light in spectators’ eyes or to intervene in any other exhibitor’s space.

The use of all halogen light bulbs/lighting fixtures must be approved prior to installation by Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, 313.259.7700. Temporary lighting and fixtures must be positioned in a manner where they cannot be reached and/or touched by the public.

There is an additional requirement for electrical equipment not manufactured in the United States to ensure its compatibility with U.S. Electrical Systems and Standards. Equipment must be approved by a United States certified testing laboratory. Please contact Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, 313.259.7700.

All electrical rigging equipment used in the exhibit space must be “listed” for the purpose it is used (UL is one listing company). For a list of other acceptable testing laboratories, please call Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, 313.259.7700. If the materials and devices are not manufactured in the United States, a certified international testing lab will be acceptable to the City of Detroit’s Building and Safety Engineering Department. This will include all rigging, lighting fixtures and related hardware, transformers, cable, computers, monitors, projectors, video walls and components, terminations and switches.

The preceding are just a few examples; however, any electrical equipment or anything used to facilitate electrical power installation must be listed for its intended purpose by an approved and certified testing laboratory. Any and all electrical equipment brought in by the exhibitor or their supplier must be itemized, along with manufacturer specifications, and submitted to the exclusive electrical provider 30 days prior to initial installation. It is the right of the permit holder (electrical services provider) to request a visual inspection of such equipment and any necessary testing that may be required (all at the expense of the designated exhibitor) prior to installation.

All booths will submit to Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, the permit-holder for the electrical installation, a complete load calculation schedule for the booth-space (floor) and the lighting, including all truss work, projectors and video walls. These must be separate calculations. This schedule should be submitted at least 30 days before installation is to begin. In turn, the schedule will be submitted to the City of Detroit Electrical Inspections Department for their review.

Any questions related to these rules can be directed to Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, 313.259.7700, the electrical permit-holder for the NAIAS.

Emergency LightingEmergency lighting systems are required by building codes and the National Fire Protection Association Life Safety Code. They are designed to immediately activate in the event of the loss of power to the normal lighting system allowing the safe evacuation of a facility.

2 0 1 8 E X H I B I T O R M A N U A L

The electrical division of the City of Detroit Building and Safety Department requires that, under certain conditions, exhibitors will be required to make provisions to include emergency lighting in their booths. These conditions include:

1) Exhibitors who install ceiling scrims or other ceiling structures that block the emergency lights.

2) Exhibitors who do not use the house lighting system in their booths and adjoining aisle locations.

Emergency lights in the main level exhibit halls are located in the ceiling. In Hall E the emergency lights are located on building columns.

Exhibitors whose exhibit structures (i.e., stairways, ceilings of two story structures and ceiling scrims) impede the effectiveness of the building’s emergency lighting must augment the system with additional battery/charger lighting packs that illuminate when power is lost to the display’s primary lighting system. Exhibitors should contact their lighting contractor for proper system design to satisfy individual display needs and code requirements.

Exhibitors whose exhibit structures do not impede the effectiveness of the building emergency lighting, and use an alternative lighting system for continuous display lighting, may utilize an interconnect between their lighting system and the existing building emergency lighting system, if no scrim or ceiling material is used which may impede the effect of the house emergency lights. This interconnect must be provided by Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical at the exhibitor’s expense.

Inspection dates for emergency lighting and fire alarm systems are January 8, 9, 10, 11, and 12. Any exhibitor not ready to test the emergency lighting and fire alarm systems within their exhibit on the dates as specified is required to establish new inspection dates with Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical. Scheduling inspection on dates other than these dates may incur additional costs.

Any system devices that are impeded by a display must be retrofitted to satisfy applicable building codes. All emergency lighting system devices work necessary to meet this retrofit requirement and to return the system back to the normal condition must be completed by Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical at the expense of the exhibitor. All work necessary to return the emergency lighting system to its normal condition must be done within the move-out dates of the NAIAS.

Canopies, Scrim Material and Overhead LightingCanopies or scrim material (material subject to Fire Marshal regulations, see Fire Marshal, “h”) which is attached near the ceiling to reflect light and/or give the appearance of a lower ceiling, cannot be lower than 25 feet from the floor level - unless building structure extends below 25 feet (15 feet in Hall E), must follow the guidelines for easements, and must not infringe in neighboring exhibit space.

Overhead lighting on the main show floor and in Hall E may extend no more than 50% into overhead aisle width, minus six inches (exceptions may apply, but would require Show Management approval). Lighting trusses may be mounted as high as building ceiling height allows, but at least 24 feet from floor level (15 feet for Hall E).

Canopies and material, overhead lighting, scrim covering, canopy structure, and/or lighting ceiling material may not interfere with the intended function of the building’s (Cobo Center) fire suppression system, HVAC system or emergency lighting system and therefore require the following approvals:

Fire Marshal approval: A one-foot by one-foot sample of the scrim material must be submitted to the Fire Marshal for approval. This material must be accompanied by a UL or FM rated certificate that proves quick burn-away. Submit scrim material to Captain Dwayne Small, 313.596.2932; fax 313.596.2978, [email protected].

Structural load approval: The placement of structural loads on the building (Cobo Center) as designed by the exhibitor’s display/exhibit engineer for overhead lighting, canopy structure, scrim covering and/or lighting ceiling material must be reviewed and approved by Cobo Center’s Review Engineer, Gregory Chaves, 586.883.2734 or at [email protected].

Johnson Controls approval: HVAC, Emergency and House Lights. A one-foot by one-foot sample of the scrim material must be submitted to Johnson Controls for approval. Please forward sample to Johnson Controls, c/o Cobo Center, One Washington Blvd., Detroit, MI 48226.

Exhibitors whose overhead lighting, canopy structure, scrim covering and/or lighting ceiling material interfere with the building’s (Cobo Center) systems (HVAC, emergency lighting) shall be responsible to install additional temporary modification at their expense. All temporary modifications must be approved by the building (Cobo Center) and Johnson Controls.

Canopies used as video walls must follow the regulations regarding video walls.

Ceiling Lighting EffectsCeiling lighting effects that promote corporate or brand marketing may extend into the aisle by 25% of the width of the aisle. Such lighting effects must be maintained at a height of not less than 24 feet from the floor level.

Lighting – Cobo CenterCobo Center keeps the majority of the facility lights off during show hours to avoid interfering with lighting in exhibits. Exhibitor-specific accommodations for overhead venue lighting will be determined on a case-by-case basis, with an emphasis on negative impact to surrounding exhibits.

Cobo Center’s lighting specifications: energy efficient induction lamps with instant on/off; color rendering index 90+ (up to 60).

MECHANICAL SYSTEMS

Plumbing Connections and Sinks in DisplaysAll sinks in displays must have the following:

1) a permanently installed strainer;

2) a “p-trap” to U.S. standards installed to the sink;

3) all Cobo Center plumbing floor boxes that service plumbing for exhibitor’s displays must be accessible. The specific plumbing port that will be used in the booth must be communicated to Bill Caverly, 313.877.8219, [email protected] at Cobo Center a minimum of seven days prior to the first move-in day for the display. All plumbing connections must be installed, maintained, and removed by Cobo Center.

The plumbing system in the exhibit halls was designed to accept clear water. The system will not accept solid waste, food particles, or grease. ALL exhibitors are required to have the plumbing system installed in the booth maintained by Cobo Center. Cobo Center will maintain the drains beginning at the floor box. Cobo Center will communicate the predetermined floor box location to be used and Cobo Center will have these drains cleaned prior to your arrival. Cobo Center will maintain these drains provided that only clear, grease-free liquids are disposed of through the drains. Cobo Center will bill to the exhibitor(s) all repair costs for any drains that become damaged or clogged by exhibitor(s) use. Any questions can be directed to Cobo Center-contact Bill Caverly, 313.877.8219, [email protected].

All plumbing must be easily accessible at ALL times. Cobo Center reserves the right to dismantle all or part of a booth, if necessary, at NO expense to Cobo Center or the City of Detroit, to correct plumbing problems, as well as for any public safety emergency.

Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning - HVACTemperature control and occupant comfort in all exhibit areas should be as much of a concern as exhibit appearance and aesthetics. HVAC supply air and return air diffusers/registers are located as follows: Supply air diffusers/registers: ceiling-main exhibit halls; building columns: Hall E; return air registers: perimeter walls –main exhibit halls and Hall E.

It is recommended that exhibits with large ceiling scrims or large structures that reduce the effectiveness of the building’s HVAC system augment the system with additional temporary duct work (a plenum that is fastened to the building’s supply diffuser with multiple “flex-duct” air outlets) connected to the building system. The purpose of this temporary plenum and duct work is to direct airflow from the building’s HVAC supply diffusers through the ceiling scrim. Exhibitors that do install temporary plenum/duct work need to discuss this with Johnson Controls in advance.

2 0 1 8 E X H I B I T O R M A N U A L

Perimeter exhibitors need to be aware of any wall mounted HVAC return air in the design stage of the display and make accommodations for adequate airflow to the return air registers. Perimeter exhibitors need to take care that no wall mounted HVAC return air registers are blocked by the exhibit’s structure/walls. All perimeter exhibitors that have return air HVAC registers on walls adjacent to their space must contact Johnson Controls in order for them to evaluate the effect of the exhibit structure on the HVAC system.

Exhibitors are responsible for contacting Johnson Controls at 248.444.6357 and Conti-HTE/Cobo Electrical, 313.259.7700.

Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning SensorsExhibitors must be aware of any HVAC sensors that may be blocked or impeded by exhibit material. Any HVAC sensor to be affected by exhibitor material is required to be moved to an unencumbered position. The relocation of the sensor and its return to the original position at the conclusion of the show is to be performed by Johnson Controls at the exhibitor’s expense and should be coordinated in advance.

Exhibitors are responsible for contacting Johnson Controls at 248.444.6357 or [email protected].

SPECIAL EFFECTS

Hazers and Fog MachinesUsage of hazers and fog machines are strictly prohibited without approval from NAIAS Show Management and Cobo Center. All hazers and fog machines will be subject to testing by the City of Detroit Fire Marshal Division and Cobo Center Management.

Submit all requests to Andrea Trudeau at [email protected] and Rajiv Chopra at [email protected].

Laser Special Effects - Cobo Center RequirementsUsage of all laser effects beyond class one lasers require special approvals. Request for approvals must be made a minimum of 45 days in advance of the date of usage. Submit requests to Rajiv Chopra, Cobo Center, at [email protected] or 313.877.8201.

Lubrication SystemsLubrication systems and parts must be so drained or treated that lubricants will not drip onto the floor or carpeting, or otherwise damage the building.

Moving MechanismsNo exhibitor may show any mechanism in operation if it is noisy or objectionable to Show Management. To prevent injury to spectators or other exhibitors, the exhibitor must adequately protect all moving mechanisms.

WALL DECOR

Perimeter ExhibitsAny exhibitor whose space extends to the building wall must have a floor-to-ceiling wall covering (29’ high) as part of their display property. Unfinished perimeter walls will be covered at the exhibitor’s expense. The wall covering should run edge to edge of the exhibitor’s space. There is no easement at a contiguous or aisle border for wall covering.

Overhang/Emergency Door Easements - East Wall on Main FloorExhibitors along the east wall overhang may extend their exhibit structure under the overhang, however, a ten foot easement aisle between the building wall or building protrusion and any exhibit material or structure must be maintained as measured from the building wall or building protrusion.

The ten foot aisle is designated as a show aisle and a fire/safety corridor. No equipment or storage of any kind may be placed in the aisle. Any electrical cabling crossing the aisle must be covered with a ramp that adheres to ADA regulations.

A 20 foot no-build zone easement between all fire exit doors along the east wall and any exhibit structure must be maintained (See Fire Marshal, “c” for additional fire exit door easement requirements).

N/A

Maximum height for any large struc-ture on the main show floor is 25’.

Any suspended structure and/or booth surround/header must be a minimum of 15’ of clearance from the ground floor to the bottom edge if an portion is located outside the normal large structure easements.

Easement rules also apply vertically to exhibit air space perpendicular to the exhibit floor space, as applicable to adding suspended structures and signs. Traffic Flow: Within the 25% set-back from the aisle (in which no major structure may be built) certain structures (video walls, turntables, signs, etc.) are allowed. The placement of such structures must not create extensive visual or physical barriers as viewed or approached from the main aisle, side aisles or contiguous borders.

Arches, stanchions, balustrades, handrails, cantilevered glass barriers, etc., and/or other openings specifically those located in non-public access areas may be exempt. Show Management reserves the right to review such layouts and to require changes that are in the best interest of the show.

Aisles: All show floor aisle space is to facilitate ease of public movement, and emergency access and egress. Aisle space is not part of the exhibitor’s space. Exhibitors are required to stay within the exhibitor’s space, and the aisles adjoining their exhibits must remain free and clear of any exhibitor’s display materials or equipment, from the floor to the ceiling, at all times.

Exhibit areas less than 5,000 square feet may be subject to additional restrictions or exclusions of rules due to space limitations, at the discretion of Show Management.

Canopies, or material which is attached near the ceiling to reflect light and/or give the appearance of a lower ceiling, cannot be lower than 25 feet from the exhibit hall (building) floor, unless restricted by building structure, i.e. People Mover (15 Feet in Hall E), must follow the guidelines for easements, must not infringe in neighboring exhibit space, must be approved by Cobo Center, the Fire Marshal and Show Management.

Canopies used as video walls must follow the regulations regarding video walls, Easements, Lighting and Fixture Positioning. Additionally, canopies cannot impede or interfere with lighting requirements, lighting systems, fire suppression and HVAC systems of Cobo Center. All canopies, scrims, etc. must be of material approved by the City of Detroit Fire Marshal and Johnson Controls. All canopies must maintain a six-inch clearance for all building lighting fixtures.

Flooring must be flush or ramped at a pitch of 2 inches for every 12 inches. No lips. Ramps must have non-slippage material, cautionary signage, if necessary, and comply with legal requirements. In the absence of an agreement between contiguous exhibitors for a transition between their exhibits, exhibits shall be at floor level within three feet of exhibitor’s boundary between contiguous exhibits. As a guide, the exhibitor with the higher floor shall provide for the transition between exhibits. Any deviation must be approved by Show Management.

Disabled ramps must comply with all Federal guidelines.

From Aisle From Contiguous Border Height

Draping

All drapes must be flame-retardant and exhibitor must have a certificate on site. See rules for Fire Alarms, Fire Extinguishers and Fire Marshal.

Flooring

All exhibits must comply with all federal and state laws including ADA compliant.

Each exhibitor’s space must have floor covering, but said floor covering must not be sealed to the building floor in such a fashion as to damage or deface the floor, or be installed in such a man-ner as to pose a safety hazard. Exhibitors are responsible for the final condition of the floor in their space.

Steps

Public Access

Hazardous or Unsafe Conditions

Draping may be used, subject to Show Management’s discretion and approval, to cover large structure or unveiling area during set up and press days and must be back a minimum of ten feet from aisle. Any other movement of drape during press conferences must be approved by Show Management.

40% or less of exhibit display area may be comprised of vehicles and structures, thus allowing a minimum of 60% of open area for attendees and floor traffic. (See Exhibit Construction, Public Access)

During the course of the show (including move-in and move-out periods), if events occur which may cause hazardous or unsafe conditions to attendees, exhibitors, patrons and workers of the show in the exhibit space, the exhibitor will take such precautions so as to identify the area and provide corrective action to protect the safety of the general public, attendees, exhibitors, patrons and workers.

Saws used to cut material must be connected to a dust collection device to minimize the amount of airborne sawdust created by the cutting of the material. Paint, varnish, polyurethane, or other liquid finishing must be applied by roller, brush or sponge application. Lacquer, lacquer thinner or acetone are not allowed in the building. These materials may not be applied in the building using spray or other airborne application methods.

Height restrictions may be imposed, depending on event

Flooring must be flush or ramped at a pitch of 2 inches for every 12 inches. No lips. Ramps must have non-slippage material, cautionary signage, if necessary, and comply with legal requirements.

Disabled ramps must comply with all Federal guidelines.

In easement areas steps must be two feet from aisle, minimum of six inches high. See Steps under Easement heading.

During the course of the show (including move-in and move-out periods), if events occur which may cause hazardous or unsafe conditions to attendees, exhibitors, patrons and workers of the show in the exhibit space, the exhibitor will take such precautions so as to identify the area and provide corrective action to protect the safety of the general public, attendees, exhibitors, patrons and workers.

Saws used to cut material must be connected to a dust collection device to minimize the amount of airborne sawdust created by the cutting of the material. Paint, varnish, polyurethane, or other liquid finishing must be applied by roller, brush or sponge application. Lacquer, lacquer thinner or acetone are not allowed in the building. These materials may not be applied in the building using spray or other airborne application methods.

Draping may be used, subject to NAIAS Show Management’s discretion and approval, to cover large structure or unveiling area during set-up and press days and must be back a minimum of ten feet from aisle. Any other movement of drape during press conferences must be approved by Show Management.

Flooring must be flush or ramped at a pitch of 12 inches of length for every two inches of rise. No lips. Ramps must have non-slippage material, caution-ary signage, if necessary, and comply with legal requirements.

In the absence of an agreement between contiguous exhibitors for a transition between their exhibits, exhibits shall be at floor level within three feet of exhibitor’s boundary between contiguous exhibits. As a guide, the exhibitor with the higher floor shall provide for the transition between exhibits. Any deviation must be approved by Show Management.

Disabled ramps must comply with all Federal guidelines.

In easement areas steps must be six feet from contiguous exhibit boundary lines.

Height restrictions may be imposed, depending on event

However, occasional exceptions may be made, depending on circumstances. Requests for media access on Sunday prior to Press Preview must be reviewed and authorized by Show Management in advance.

If you are planning to bring a celebrity/entertainer and/or entertainment group to perform at the Charity Preview, please fill out and submit Form 7AS with the name of the entertainer/entertainment group for Show Management approval as soon as possible, but no later than Monday, December 1.

Charity Preview TransportationA coalition of organizations, including the Detroit Police Department, Detroit Department of Transportation, private shuttle service providers, taxi service operators, city officials and NAIAS security, have been working to streamline and improve traffic flow at the Charity Preview to better serve our guests. A comprehensive communications plan has been developed for the NAIAS and is complemented by increased on-site staff.

Charity Preview General ParkingArrangements for prepaid parking can be made by contacting Jennifer Kaplan at 248.283.5162, [email protected]. Multiple lots and garages around the city will be open to the public for self-parking. For further information on Charity Preview parking, go to the NAIAS website, naias.com.

LimousinesPrior to the start of Charity Preview, limousines and privately-owned cars will drop guests off at the Hall B, Hall C and Hall D entrances adjacent to Washington Boulevard. The Detroit entrance will be reserved for pre-arranged private shuttle service only. Once the drop-off has occurred, all vehicles will be directed to a parking or staging area. For updates to this information, access the NAIAS website at naias.com.

When departing the Charity Preview event, guests will enter a cordoned-off waiting area in the concourse where a valet service will be used to call the limousines. The entire party for each limousine must be present prior to entering the waiting area.

Limousines will be notified that the party is waiting and will proceed along a predetermined route that will ultimately lead to the cross streets of Jefferson and Washington. At that point, all limousine traffic will be held until space is available in front of Cobo. When spaces become available, the vehicles will be directed to the front of Cobo and the guests will be escorted to the vehicle. Proceed to the information desk at the valet service for additional assistance. No limousine or private vehicle will be allowed to stand in front of Cobo unless its party is ready to enter the vehicle.

Buses, vans and shuttles will drop guests off at the Atwater entrances. Pre-arranged shuttle service will be assigned to the Congress entrance for some vans and mini-buses. Shuttles and vans that will be in continuous operation will not require a staging area.
