English term or phrase: Six finger site
Hello,

I am not sure about the meaning of this term here. Someone is able to help?
Thanks in advance!

"
This design requires upfront investment in an underground ducting system to form a path way to each proposed charging station and physical space for future transformers and electrical panels.

This comes at a higher initial cost, but yields tremendous cost savings when the charging stations are installed.

Another potential downside is the increase in space use on the site for parking.

On a six finger site, an additional 1.5% land take is required as compared to an option with no offset between angled parking spaces."

Explanation:
Je pense plutôt qu'il est tout simplement question de places de stationnement en bataille.

"The minimum number of accessible parking spaces required depends on the total number of parking spaces in the lot, as seen in the table below. Furthermore, one of every six accessible parking spaces, or fraction of six, must be “van-accessible.” For example: A parking lot with 400 total spaces needs eight accessible spaces, and two of those eight spaces must be van-accessible."

Au regard de cette loi, mon deuxième lien (p.22/40) comporte deux illustrations qui expliquent visuellement la "perte de surface" (1.5% d'après votre document) décrite dans le cas de places de stationnement en bataille par rapport à des places de stationnement en épi.
