Job sites follow OSHA. OSHA 29 CFR 1926.51 requires 1 unit for up to 20 workers, then 1 toilet seat and 1 urinal per 40 workers from 20 to 199 workers, and 1 per 50 workers at 200 or more. Hand washing has to be available where the work involves contaminants.
Events run on planning ratios rather than regulation. The common starting point is 1 unit per 50 guests for a 4 hour event, then more units as the hours and headcount climb, plus roughly 15 percent extra when alcohol is served.
Heavy use and heat both shorten the interval. A Summerville site that is comfortable on weekly service in spring often needs twice weekly through the hottest months.
What do Summerville organisers need to know?
Lighting is worth planning for any Summerville event running past dusk. Units without internal lighting become unusable after dark unless the surrounding area is lit.
The access rule is simple and worth designing around: within about 25 feet of where the truck can stop. Courtyards and rear lots on Summerville sites frequently fail it.
Spread a large Summerville site into two or three banks rather than one row. Walking distance drives usage more than the total count does, and one bank means one long queue.
Hand sanitiser in a standard unit is useful but is not the same provision as a sink. Where Summerville work involves contaminants, the station is what the rule asks for.
