In loads leaving at 100%, the last wall depth may be deeper than which range?

• A. 18-24 inches
• B. 6-12 inches
• C. 0-6 inches
• D. More than 24 inches

Answer: (D)

When loads are leaving at 100% capacity, the boundary for the last wall must accommodate the maximum transfer of force. Under full-load conditions, the depth needed to safely contain or support that load can exceed standard shallow depths, so the last wall may need to be deeper than 24 inches. The shallower ranges up to 24 inches cover typical lighter-load scenarios, but they don’t account for the extra depth required at full load, which is why the appropriate answer is that the depth can be more than 24 inches.
