Exercises from Chapter 6
Systematic Layout Planning SLP • i.e., Muther’s method Pairwise Exchange Method Block layout CRAFT • BLOCPLAN • LOGIC 6.35 Consider the layout shown below. Use LOGIC and the cut-tree shown below to exchange departments B and F.
Total area for G,D, and B = 32,000
With facility width of 200, then part-length for the three =32,000 ÷ 200=160. Then continue area distribution
