2. Facilities Plant Layout
A plant layout study is an engineering study used to analyze different physical
configurations for a manufacturing plant.
It is also known as Facilities Planning and Layout
In manufacturing
engineering,
process layout is a
design for the floor plan
of a plant which aims to
improve efficiency by
arranging equipment
according to its function
3. Facilities Plant Layout
The production line should ideally be designed to eliminate waste in material flows,
inventory handling and management
In process layout, the work stations and machinery are not arranged according to a
particular production sequence
Instead, there is an assembly of similar operations or similar machinery in each
department (for example, a drill department, a paint department, etc.)
Building services engineering
responsible for the design, installation, operation and
monitoring of the mechanical, electrical and public health
systems required for the safe, comfortable and
environmentally friendly operation of modern buildings
4. Facilities Plant Layout
Building services engineering comprises mechanical engineering, electrical engineering
and plumbing or public health (MEP) engineering, all of which are further sub-divided into
the following:
•Communication lines, telephones and IT networks (ICT)
•Energy supply - gas, electricity and renewable sources
•Escalators and lifts
•Fire detection and protection
•Heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC)
•Lightning protection
•Low voltage (LV) systems, distribution boards and switchgear
•Natural lighting and artificial lighting, and building facades
•Security and alarm systems
•Ventilation and refrigeration
•Water, drainage and plumbing
5. Facilities Plant Layout
A site plan is an architectural plan, and a detailed
engineering drawing of a given lot
A site plan usually shows a building footprint, travel
ways, parking, drainage facilities, sanitary sewer lines,
water lines, trails, lighting, and landscaping
The shop floor is the floor of a factory (machine shop)
where people work on machines
It may also refer to the space in a retail establishment
where goods are sold to consumers
6. Facilities Plant Layout
Plans are often for technical purposes such as
architecture, engineering, or planning
Their purpose in these disciplines is to
accurately and unambiguously capture all the
geometric features of a site, building, product or
component
Plans can also be for presentation or orientation
purposes, and as such are often less detailed
versions of the former
The end goal of plans is either to portray an
existing place or object
