Physical dimensions of the alleged gas chambers

I have two questions:
1. What were the physical dimensions of the alleged gas chambers at Auschwitz I and at Birkenau?
2. How many Jews were allegedly gassed in each of these buildings during a single gassing operation?
It is very difficult to find an answer to (1.) online for some reason.
I want to calculate the number of Jews who were allegedly crammed into each square meter of floor space in each of the alleged gas chambers at Auschwitz and at Birkenau.

Dimensions for LK-1 Kremas II and III are:
c) Underground mortuary 1 (Leichenkeller 1). Its dimensions were 7 × 30 = 210 square meters in area.

I'd have quoted from technique directly, but, my copy is not searchable.

According to Elon Musk's Grokipedia, crowd crushes occur when crowd density surpasses 4-6 individuals per square meter.
Crowd collapses and crushes are physical disasters in densely packed assemblies where interpersonal forces generate compressive pressures exceeding human tolerance, resulting in injuries and fatalities chiefly from traumatic asphyxia rather than trampling or panic-driven flight.[1][2] These events arise when crowd densities surpass critical thresholds—typically above 4 to 6 individuals per square meter—triggering instabilities akin to fluid turbulence, including stop-and-go waves and pressure buildups that propagate uncontrollably.[3]

Grok fails to account for 'german methods'.
When asked on the stand how to fit 20 people in 1 square meter, I believe the witness stated 'it is only possible with German methods'.

Crematorium I
17m x 4.6m (
Pressac)
400 (
Pressac) to 900 (
Pressac) people per operation
Crematoria II and III
30m x 7m (
Pressac)
up to 3,000 people per operation
2,000 according to R. Höss (IMT, Vol. 33, p. 277), as well as C.S. Bendel; 3,000 according to M. Nyiszli (Pressac 1989, pp. 471, 473, respectively); 2,500 acc. to Kula (see quote on p. 150).
The Chemistry of Auschwitz by Germar Rudolf, p.248
Crematoria IV and V
Here the history is thinner and less certain. Pressac believed there were three and later four gas chambers, and he made these calculations purely based on their dimensions (

The floor area of the block of three gas chambers was 240 m² (4800m³). 2,400 people could therefore be squeezed in at a density of 10 per square metre.
Belzec
25m² (
Faurisson, citing Gerstein)
700-800 people per operation

Thanks Wetzelrad. That answers my question.
Crematorium I
5.12-11.51 people per square meter
Crematoria II and III
14.29 people per square meter
Crematoria IV and V
10.00 people per square meter
Belzec
28.00-32.00 people per square meter
Another Holocaust miracle.
