Therefore, we are used to interpreting that inside clear dimensions refer to the worst obstructions. The building columns will infringe more into the interior space than the wall panels. Please review the answer given to this question since the columns will be two feet, or more, inside the wall panels and could significantly reduce the b by 200' long. No part of the building structure, including the building columns, can infringe on this space.
