production processes or equipment without significant disruption.

1.2.2 Optimum use of space: Ensuring that every part of the workshop is used
efficiently,avoiding wasted or unused areas.

1.2.3 Minimum handling of materials: Reducing the number of times materials need to be
moved, thus saving time and lowering the risk of damage or loss.

1.2.4 Minimum traveling distance for materials and staff: Shortening the distances that workers
and materials need to move to complete tasks, improving efficiency and productivity.

1.2.5 Safety of workers and security of equipment: Designing the layout to protect workers from
accidents and safe guard equipment from damage or unathorized access.
