Pads side by side at their listed sizes, with the average man (5 ft 9 in) lying on each. "Tight" is under an inch to a wall or the sloping roof: the fabric gives, but a wet wall wets what touches it. Open it in TentCheck to try your own pads, cots and gear, or read how fits are checked.

From the modeled roof, not measured. About 36 in is where an average adult sits up straight on a pad: a 35 in sitting height, plus the pad.

| Groundsheet to cut | About 88 × 46 in |
Floor and vestibules together cover 96 × 108 in. On a square tent pad, as campgrounds list them: 8 × 8 ft: doesn't fit; 10 × 10 ft: fits; 12 × 12 ft: fits. Guylines and stakes need more room around that.
For a groundsheet, cut it a little smaller than the floor, about 2 in, so rain running off the fly doesn't collect on it and run under the tent: about 88 × 46 in.
Bathtub floor 90 × 48 in, 48 in peak, single wall in Dyneema on two trekking poles, with a door and vestibule on each long side. The beaks reach 30 in from the floor (108 in across them, less the 48 in floor); 10.7 ft² each as drawn.
Roof shapes are modeled from the floor, the peak and how the poles hold the walls, not measured. Treat a result within an inch or two as too close to call.
