The JBD's on each carrier are different. The Nimitz four JBD's were all different sizes. If you are planning on using cats 1 & 2, the # 1 cat JBD is much taller than # 2.
I have this information I got when I built a CAT and JBD for the USS Ike. The measurements are approximate as I could not get the exact mesurement. It is pretty close give a few inches. These are from the time period of the early to mid 80's
JBD # 1 is made up of six sections, each section being around twelve feet high, and five feet wide. That would make the # 1 JBD twelve by thirty feet, with all six raised.
JBD # 2 is made up of three sections, each section being around eight feet high and sixteen feet long. That would make the #2 JBD eight feet by forty eight feet.
JBD #3 is made up of six sections, with each section being around twelve feet high and four feet wide.
JBD #4 is made up of one section being around seven foot tall and twenty four feet long.
And as I said each carrier has different size JBD's, so you would have to research the sizes on the carrier you are using.
Got you totally confused, now?
