| Course Objectives: |
This course enables students to apply some of the basic IE/OR tools (such as mathematical programming, heuristic approaches) to the problems of facility layout and facility location. The course emphasizes quantitative modeling approaches and the applicability of these approaches in facilities planning. This course aims to introduce the students the basic topics of facility planning, such as facility location, facility layout, warehouse layout, and storage systems. |
| Course Contents: |
Basic concepts about facility layout and location. Product, process, schedule design and their interaction with facility layout design. Types of facility layouts. Analytic methods for layout problems. Computer-aided layout design. Facility location problems and analytic methods. Warehouse layout. Storage systems. Material handling systems. |
| Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit (LO): |
- 1- Learn how product, process, schedule design decisions can influence the facility layout design.
- 2- Learn the fundamentals of the flow systems and their relation with facility layout design.
- 3- Learn formulations, models, and analytical tools for the study of facility layout.
- 4- Learn the fundamentals of facility location problems and their quantitative models.
- 5- 5. Learn the fundamental issues in designing workstation layouts, warehouse layouts and storage systems.
