I came to this by measuring the length and width of my own tama rockstar double bass kit which was 8 8 feet in width and 5 feet in length.

A drum kit also called a drum set trap set an abbreviation of the word contraption or simply drums is a collection of drums and other percussion instruments typically cymbals which are set up on stands to be played by a single player with drumsticks held in both hands and the feet operating pedals that control the hi hat cymbal and the beater for the bass drum.
A floor tom or low tom is a double headed tom tom drum which usually stands on the floor on three legs however they can also be attached to a cymbal stand with a drum clamp or supported by a rim mount it is a cylindrical drum without snare wires and tend to produce a booming resonant sound which can vary in pitch.

As a floor tom the depths range from 11 to 14.
The deeper drums have a bit more sustain but the difference is really small.
Of course the actual space you ll need depends on the model of drum kit you finally purchase and the amount of additional accessories or drums you d like to add to it.
Obviously this drum set is bigger than a lot of kits out there especially with all the extra hardware i have.
Generally a 14 tom is a very easy drum and it produces a great sound regardless of the depth.
