Q
What is tolerance?
A
Tolerance allows for extra space for a dynamic activity (one likely to change) instead of fitting the space precisely to a static activity.
For example, an indoor swimming pool area can be sized to accommodate just the pool and circulation around it. Providing for tolerance would give extra room to accommodate future bleachers or extra seating.
