What we used · High Confidence
Corridor: 30" wide
Ceiling: 96"
Item: item — 12 × 80 × 76"
Assumptions
- Assumed equal corridor widths on both sides of turn
- Assumed standard ceiling height: 8ft (2440mm)
All orientations tested (6 orientations)
| | Orientation | Corridor | Corner | Ceiling | Limiting |
|---|------------|----------|--------|---------|----------|
| ✗ | 80" across, 12" up, 76" along | -50" | — | 84" | width |
| ✗ | 80" across, 76" up, 12" along | -50" | — | 20" | width |
| ✗ | 12" across, 80" up, 76" along | 18" | -25" | 16" | corner |
| ✗ | 12" across, 76" up, 80" along | 18" | -29" | 20" | corner |
| ✗ | 76" across, 80" up, 12" along | -46" | — | 16" | width |
| ✗ | 76" across, 12" up, 80" along | -46" | — | 84" | width |
Step-by-step proof (best: 12×80×76")
1. Corridor width: 12" item ≤ 30" corridor → ✓ (18")
2. Ceiling: 80" item ≤ 96" ceiling → ✓ (16")
3. Corner sweep: 76" length > 51" max → ✗
Binding constraint: item along-corridor length (76") exceeds corner sweep limit by 25"
