Converted bus plan, to scale

Converted school bus: between the wheel wells, all in length.

The plan opens on "Bus", a 6.40 m (21' 0") by 2.29 m (7' 6") rectangle (14.66 m² (158 sq ft)) that you correct to your own measurements. Its line (wall) is 5 cm thick. Already in place: double bed, sofa bed, van counter, van sink, two-burner stove, wood stove…

How to use it

Choose the length of your bus: the body and wheel wells place themselves.
Keep the centre aisle: it is also the way to the emergency door.
Put the bed at the back, the kitchen in the middle, the stove away from the exits.
Place the tanks between the axles.

What this plan is, and what it is not

Dimensions are indicative: measure your vehicle before you cut anything. Stay within the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) and the axle load ratings given by the manufacturer; weights on the plan are typical values. Propane, heating and electrical: have the installation checked by a certified person. Install a carbon monoxide detector and a propane detector.
