The document discusses dimensions for wash basins, urinals, and toilets, including requirements for disabled toilet facilities. It also provides guidelines for laying out different styles of meeting rooms based on factors like space, audience size, and required interaction. Six main meeting room styles are described: theatre, classroom, conference/boardroom, U-shape/horseshoe, hollow design, and hexagon shape. Details are given on typical usage and seating arrangements for each style.

12. MEETING ROOM
The best way to layout a meeting room is dependant on a
number of factors including:
• The space available
• The size of the audience
• The level of activity and interaction required
There are 6 main styles which are described below.
13. Theatre Style
• Theatre style seating allows the most people for a given size
of room. This is fine for an audience who will be listening to
presentations and do not need to make many notes or
interact with each other.
• For any group larger than 100, you need an aisle, plus side
access.
14. Classroom style
• Classroom style requires about three times as much space per person as
theatre style but provides everyone with somewhere to rest their papers
and equipment. It also allows refreshments to be provided on the tables.
• This style is good for audiences who may need to take notes or work
individually during the presentation(s) but who do not need to interact
with each other.
15. Conference/Boardroom Style
• Good for participatory meetings of 22 people maximum.
• A rectangular or oval table set up with chairs around all sides and ends.
Boardroom style works well if the group is reasonably small and will
spend most of the time talking to each other or listening to one or two
speakers who are not using a screen.
Used for
This table layout is often used for Board of Directors meetings, committee
meetings, or discussion groups.
16. U-Shape/horseshoe style
The Horseshoe is similar to the Boardroom Style except that it allows
more people to participate. It is slightly better than an ordinary
boardroom layout for giving presentations, which rely on being able to see
the projector screen.
Used for
• The horse-shoe layout is often preferred by trainers .
This layout style is often used for Board of Directors meetings, committee
meetings, or discussion groups where there is a speaker, audio-visual
presentation etc.
17. Hollow Design
Square conference tables arranged in a square or rectangle or even
octagon, leaving the center open. Chairs are placed around the outside of
the tables.
Best usage: Larger meetings of 12 to 30 people, at which group interaction
among attendees is important and meetings when the event does not
have a designated leader or presenter.
Useful layout design that provides workspace for each person and good
communication and visual lines for each person.
18. Hexagon Shape
• Hexagon shape is a desirable variation of the hollow square configuration
because it dramatically improves eye-to-eye contact for small groups
where interaction is a factor.
19. Banquet Rounds
A group of round tables, each seating 6-10 people usually, set to facilitate
serving food, usually in a hexagonal or square design.
Best usage: Banquet-style is the setup plan of choice for most meal
functions. In addition, it is also useful for small business meetings and
breakouts or groups involving group interaction and/or note taking.
