The PVC pipes are in off the outer borders by about 5-7 meters along M & H 
and F & K.  In all the tests I have seen...my rule book is down at the barn
in 
the horse trailer, so I can't check... none of the movements start until you

reach the first letter, so the poles are out of the way.  You can do a
double 
deviation, a long diagonal, and even a 10 m circle in the corner using the
40 x 
100.  

I hope the drawing will show up in the post.  If it doesn't I'll e-mail it
to 
anyone that would like to see it.
This is ADS Intermediate Test 2 (I don't have the advanced tests done yet).

It shows a 40 x 100 m arena.  If you were to put the poles in you would see 
that they don't interfere with any of the movements.  It's the same for the
FEI 
advanced tests.  The only thing you can't do is have the letters up for both

the lower levels and advanced.  I put them in for the lowers and assume the 
advanced drivers know where they are.  If you use your dressage court more
for 
advanced drivers I'd do the reverse.  I use my Training & Preliminary
dressage 
test drawings to set cones courses in the dressage field that won't
interfere 
with the lower level tests.  At one of the events that ADS President Jody 
Cutler puts on the cones are preset in the dressage court.  You do your
dressage 
test, salute the judge & go directly to the start position for your cones 
course.  It works great and saves a lot of work the morning of the event.
Once you 
get past Prelim it's hard to have a cones course preset in the dressage
court 
because there are so many more movements.
