Statement of the study: To prepare a plant layout for a shirt manufacturing unit
with a capacity of 1250 shirts per day. Objective: Preparation of a layout plan
for a shirt manufacturing unit. Need of the study: Designing an efficient layou
t helps a lot in reducing the time taken by the material to travel in the depart
ment. It helps in:
Optimum flow of the material through each department
Efficien
t operation of the various related processes. Increase in efficiency.
Introduction The design of a process plant is a complex activity that will usual
ly involve many different disciplines over a considerable period of time.
The de
sign may also go through many stages from the original research and development
phases, through conceptual design, detailed process design and onto detailed eng
ineering design and equipment selection. Many varied and complex factors includi
ng safety, health, the environment, economic and technical issues may have to be
considered before the design is finalized.
At each stage it is important that t
he personnel involved have the correct combination of technical competencies and
experience in order to ensure that all aspects of the design process are being
adequately addressed. Evidence of the qualifications, experience and training of
people involved in design activities should be presented in the Safety Report t
o demonstrate that the complex issues associated with design have been considere
d and a rigorous approach has been adopted.
The process design will often be an
iterative process with many different options being investigated and tested befo
re a process is selected. In many occasions a number of different options may be
available and final selection may depend upon a range of factors.

Factors considered for layout construction A. Movement

This factor includes inter and interdepartmental transport and handling at vario
us operations, at storage, at inspections, the type of equipments and methods fo
r material handling. This remains the most important factor while deciding upon
the selection of layout and utilization of available land. The various support d
epartments are planned such that they are near to their requisite sections of th
e plant, so that lesser material handling takes place as well as time is saved.
The material handling equipments are selected and designed as per departments req
uirement and interdepartmental movement. B. Product
This factor includes type of product, the range and variety it covers, the quant
ity in a shift, the number of shifts, necessary operations and their sequence. T
he product to be made is high quality dress shirt for export. There are various
variations of the dress shirt which have been covered while selecting the type o
f machinery. The operation breakdown was done along with the time study and the
final sequence of operations is decided by elimination of unnecessary operations
. C. Machinery
This factor includes the process, production equipments / furniture type, specia
l precautions to be taken, tools - their utilization and service net-work relate
d to the same. During selection of machinery, the type, productivity, price and
service provided by the supplier was kept in mind, so that no hassles are met in
future. D. Waiting
This factor includes permanent and temporary storage and delays and their locati
ons. The stores and warehouse are planned such that there is minimum amount of m
aterial handling happening between various departments and the store/warehouse.
Proper amount of inventory storage capacity is planned so that inventory cost ne
ver goes higher.

E. Man This factor includes direct workers, supervision and service help persona
ls, working hours, safety and manpower utilization method. Standard aisle space
for movement is provided, so that there is no problem in movement or supervision
. Proper amount of area for each workstation is provided so that the direct work
ers have no problem while doing the operations or during movement. All the safet
y precautions are undertaken while designing the layout like exits, emergency ex
its, fire extinguishers. F. Service
This factor includes service relating to employee facilities such as parking, lo
ckers, rooms, toilets, waiting rooms etc, service related to materials in terms
of quality, production controls, scheduling, dispatching, waste control etc and
service related to maintenance and repair, its schedule, frequency and intensity
. G. Building
This factor includes outside, inside building features, utility distribution, na
ture of service integration. The various blocks are planned as per their require
ment like of height, inside features, type of shedding, flooring etc. The final
building is to be done in two floors with Kirby sheds while the administration,
canteen and other utilities block would be an RCC structure.

Steps in facility design

1. Procure the basic data a) Sales forecast b) Quantity to be produced c) Produc
tion schedule d) Inventory policy e) Production routing f) Operations to be perf
ormed g) Production time standards h) Scrap percentages 2. Analyze the basic dat
a Above data is analyzed by the designer to determine the desired interrelations
hips and then preparing for subsequent planning steps. Assembly charts give a qu
ick and early glimpse of the possible flow of materials.
3. Design the production process The next is to decide how the raw material woul
d be converted to final part or product. Herein the production engineer designs
an OPERATION SHEET or PRODUCTION ROUTING, which is the tabulation of the steps i
nvolved in the production of a particular part and necessary details on related
items. Information on routing may include: i. Part names and number ii. Operatio
n numbers and sequence iii. Operations name and descriptions iv. Machine names a
nd numbers v. Production standards vi. Number of operators

vii. Space requirements viii. Material With the above information along with the
Assembly chart, an OPERATION PROCESS CHART is constructed, which provides a bet
ter impression of the potential material flow pattern. 4. Plan material flow pat
tern
Overall material flow pattern must be carefully designed to assure minimum movem
ent and expeditious interrelation of the several components part flow paths. Asse
mbly chart and production routing along with data on quantity and frequency of m
aterial movement, a preliminary material flow pattern should be developed, which
is then worked upon keeping in mind the factors affecting material flow to reac
h to a finalized pattern of flow of material in a particular unit. Flexibility f
or future expansion or any changes 5. Consider general material handling plan
Th
e material handling system converts the static flow pattern into a dynamic flow
of material through the plant. The ideal system consists of an integrated combin
ation of methods and effective methods of performing every handling task- from u
nloading of material to shipping of the final product. This involves both manual
and mechanical methods. Detailed handling methods should only after individual
work stations have been planned.
6. Calculate the equipment requirements
Any layout is incomplete w/o estimation
of how many pieces of each type of equipment (manufacturing, service and auxilia
ry) will be required. Preliminary requirement has been made while tabulating pro
duction routing. Here final decisions must be made as to the quantity of the equ
ipment as a basis for planning individual workstations and planning space requir
ements for each activity area.

Also the number of operators must also be determined. If final decisions regardi
ng above , have not been made, at least an estimation should be available.
7. Plan individual work areas
At this point, each operation , work station , are
a , process etc. must be planned in detail.
The interrelationships between machi
nes, operators and auxiliary equipment must be worked out. Each workstation must
be tied into the overall flow pattern and flow through each work station must b
e planned as an integral part of the overall plan.
8. Select the specific material handling equipment Specific methods of material
handling must be decided upon for each move of material or item. Many factors ne
ed to need to be considered in the selection of handling methods.
9. Coordinate the group of related operations Once the workplaces have been desi
gned, interrelationships between the work areas, related group of operations or
activities should also be planned. LAYOUT PLANNING CHART is a useful technique a
t this point.
10. Design activity relationships Production activities need to be inter-related
with auxiliary and service activities with respect to the degree of closeness r
equired by material, personnel and information flow.
11. Determine the storage requirements
Plans should now be crystallized in terms
of storage of raw material, WIP and finished products. Square foot and cubic fo
ot requirements should be calculated , with thought also given to the location o
f the storage areas in the layout.

2 storage location methods1. Randomized storage When an individual SKU can be stored in any available stor
age location. The closest available slot is designated as storage location 2. De
dicated storage When a SKU is assigned to a specific storage location or a set o
f locations. Fixed slot is defined.
12.
Plan the service and auxiliary activities (Administration, transportation and st
orage) A look at the plant service area planning sheet shows the complexity of t
his step. Depending on the size of the plant all of the service activities must
be carefully studied, in order to determine which are needed. Later, during the
space planning and final design aspects of the planning, the details of many of
these service activities must be worked out.
13. Determine space requirements
At this stage, a preliminary estimate of the to
tal space required for each activity in the facility can be made and cumulativel
y, designer can arrive at a first estimate of the total area.
Production space n
eeds are estimated with the aid of a production space requirement sheet. Space d
eterminations made at this stage are estimates. So these are on a little higher
side to ensure there is sufficient area. Only the final layout will show accurat
ely the total space needs.
14. Allocate activity areas to total space The total space requirement work shee
t provides for an area template for each activity listed.
Activity relationship
diagram is helpful in determining the relationships b/w the different area templ
ates.

Then an Area Allocation Diagram can be made based on the above, which depicts th
e inter-relationships between the internal flow of materials and the external fl
ow-by means of various transportation modes.
It will also depicts the relationsh
ip w/ surrounding facilities e.g. power plant, parking areas, storage places and
adjacent buildings. A preliminary layout has now been established.
15. Consider building types Building type, construction, shape and number of flo
ors should be considered. Building usually comes after the layout. The layout sh
ould never be squeezed into or altered to fit into a building, if it can be avoi
ded by designing a layout first. As imp a building might seem to be, it is the l
ayout that forms the basis for the efficient operation of an enterprise.
16. Construct the master layout This step is the culmination of the detailed wor
k and planning done in the preceding steps. Final Layout is prepared using templ
ates, tapes, etc. to a scale e.g. = 1 ft. Two dimensional or three dimensional mo
dels are prepared.
17. Evaluate, adjust and check the layout with appropriate personnel No matter h
ow carefully or scientifically previous steps have been carried out, there are a
lways personal and judgmental factors to be considered. Facility designer and hi
s associates should check over their work at this stage before submitting it for
approval. Preliminary checks might also be made with others who have contribute
d in designing the layout (production, methods, and personnel safety).
18. Obtain approvals In the final stages , the layout must be formally approved
by certain plant officials, depending on plant facilities and procedures.
19. Install layout A layout designer should carefully supervise the necessary wo
rk involved in the installation of the layout to make sure all work is done acco
rding to the plans in the

approved layout. Any changes, if desired, should be carefully investigated and a

pproved by the concerned authorities.
20. Follow up on implementation of layout Just because layout has been installed
as planned, there is no guarantee that will work as planned. No plant layout is
100% perfect and layout designer must continually take note of how the layout i
s affecting the production operations. Scope should be improvement must always b
e kept and incorporated if found desirable.

FACTORY INFORMATION: Foundation:

The foundation will be built by digging 6 ft. d
own. Firstly a base of plain concrete cement is there for 6 inches and then a re
inforced concrete cement block of 1 ft. The column foundation starts after that
and the plinth and normal ground level are the same. IMT Manesar Gurgaon IMT Man
esar Area is under Haryana State Industrial Development Corporatation (HSIDC).Th
e Export House is situated in the Township (IMT) in Manesar, 17 km from Gurgaon.
The reasons for Manesar s popularity are not hard to find. "It is located on th
e main Jaipur-Delhi highway and is extremely well-connected to Delhi. The intern
ational airport is just 32 km away, while Connaught Place is 45 km. It takes abo
ut an hour and a half to reach Connaught Place which is the center of Delhi. The
re are various garment manufacturing units like Modelama, Innovation com, Remya
Fashions - Manufacturer and Exporter of Hi-Fashion Garments etc. in this area. T
he following could all be considered as important but for setting up the garment
unit, some of the factors will be more important than others. Electricity suppl
y: Some firms require either a certain type of power/energy source or particular
amounts to be able to operate effectively. This means that one consideration fo
r location is somewhere that has relatively easy access to such sources. This mi
ght be particularly relevant for a garment unit that uses sufficient amounts of
power in the production process. In simple terms, the location has to be in a po
sition to be able to supply the amount of power that the unit might need. In thi
s example of the garment unit, the production processes involved in this industr
y require an optimum amount of electricity. The electricity supply to the unit i
s continuous and the rates are cheap.
Nearness to a Supply of Labor:

All businesses need labour to operate. In some cases, this labour has to have hi
gh levels of skill. Some areas have concentrations of industry in a region and h
ave become known for having a pool of skilled labour available. In such cases, i
t can save a firm both time and cost locating near to the supply of labour. This
can be extended if the local labour supply is relatively cheap. In the vicinity
of the IMT Manesar, cheap labour can be easily found. The nearness to the villa
ges like Bhiwadi , Khandsa and Manesar fulfills the requirements of labour. Prox
imity of Other Businesses - External Economies of Scale: Where industry becomes
concentrated in an area, there are generally a number of supporting or ancillary
units set up. In some cases, these units supply specialised services or product
s to other firms in the industry. For example, fabric dyeing, printing, agencies
for fabric sourcing/ accessories sourcing, buying houses etc. are also in IMT m
anesar. These benefits can result in lower average costs (costs per unit). This
is called external economies of scale. The Reputation of an Area: Certain areas
of the country have a reputation for particular types of business - this might o
ften be due to its industrial past or the density of the similar kind of industr
ies. There are too many export houses in this area and it is reputed as a hub fo
r garment manufacturing. Whilst this factor may be seen as being less important
it can still be a factor that a unit might consider. Transport and Communication
Services: Units that rely on good communications networks either for informatio
n transfer or distribution may well look to locate in areas where such facilitie
s exist. This may include high quality road networks, access to trains, airports
, ports and so on. Many new industrial estates have been built in out of town ar
eas and major new trunk roads linking these estates with major road networks mak
e locating in these areas worthwhile for some firms. For other firms, speed of i
nformation may be the crucial factor in their business. Many city areas were the
first to have access to high speed data networks, broadband, cable and

satellite services and so on. For a firm in the City, having high speed data acc
ess is essential to the transaction of their business. The IMT manesar is well c
onnected to the highway for the transport of the materials. The information serv
ices are also satisfactory. Government support: The availability of low rent pre
mises, faster planning permissions, employment subsidies (a sum of money given f
or every job created), grants etc. can make a difference to a company that decid
es to locate in that area. Opportunities for Expansion: Many businesses might be
looking for opportunities to expand in the future. Access to land, and the ease
with which the business can expand if necessary, might therefore be something t
hat a business will want to find out before making a location decision, or at le
ast as part of a location decision. In some areas of the country, planning permi
ssion may be difficult to get - there may be restrictions on expansion into the
countryside, various policies to encourage use of derelict land and so on. Whils
t this may be of benefit to society as a whole, it is not necessarily the most c
ost-effective solution for a business. In some areas of the country, land and re
ntal prices can be significant factors in location decisions. IMT manesar can be
considered a perfect location for the expansion. Development Agencies and Inwar
d Investment: Regional policy in recent years has changed its emphasis. The appr
oach is to have a coordinated policy to help each region achieve its full econom
ic potential but at the same time to allow decision-making to be devolved to the
lowest level, where possible. This means that the regions themselves will take
a lead in encouraging economic development and supporting businesses in their re
gion. To this end, there is now a network of regional development agencies (DAs)
focusing their attention on improving the economy of particular regions. IMT ma
nesar Industries Association is the main association involved in the development
of this area

3) Design production process

The production process of various sections involved in the production process is
designed using the analyzed data along with the consultation with concerned exp
erts and consultants The next is to decide how the raw material would be convert
ed to final part or product. Herein the production engineer designs an OPERATION
SHEET or PRODUCTION ROUTING, which is the tabulation of the steps involved in t
he production of a particular part and necessary details on related items. Infor
mation on routing may include:
i. Part names and number
ii. Operation numbers and sequence
iii. Operations name and descriptions
iv. Machine names and numbers
v. Production standards
vi. Number of operators

4) Plan material flow pattern

One of major activity during plant layout design is the planning of the flow pat
tern. It is on the flow pattern that the layout design depends upon. So selectio
n of the best flow pattern as per the given constraints from various available o
ptions is very important for the success of the final layout.
Different sections of the unit The new manufacturing unit will consist of follow
ing sections / departments:
A. Production Related Fabric Stores Sewing Trims & Accessories Store Spreading a
nd Cutting Section Sewing Section Finishing Section Merchandising Department Sam
pling & Technical Department Quality Department CAD Section IE Department Mainte
nance Warehouse

B. Administration and other departments CEO Office Accounts Department HR Depart

ment Medical Room Training Department Conference Room Reception Generator, Boile

at the unloading dock and is transferred to the fabric store through the articul
ated fork lifter. Issue of fabric to cutting section: The required amount of fab
ric is issued to the cutting section through fork lifter or the power pallet tru
ck as per requirement. Transfer of cut parts to parts section: The cut parts are
transferred to the parts section through a vertical trolley system. The cut par
ts would be lifted by the help of a trolley to the parts section from where it w
ould be fed to the respective lines. In the parts section, material is handled v
ia bins, or racks as per requirement.

 Transfer of panels to assembly section: From parts to assembly garments are tran
sferred through use of various bins, racks or trolleys. And in the assembly sect
ion, garment panels move on a mover system. Transfer of garments to finishing se
ction: Garment is transferred to the finishing section through the stairs using
gravity. There would be slider provided in the stairs for easy movement of the b

5) Material flow pattern plan

Specific methods of material handling must be decided upon for each move of mate
rial or item. Many factors need to need to be considered in the selection of han
dling methods. Material handling equipment is selected based on the requirement
with consideration for various factors like cost, service etc. Progressive bundl
e system (PBS)
The progressive bundle system (PBS) gets its name from the bundle
s of garment parts that are moved sequentially from operation to operation. Bund
les consist of garment parts needed to complete a specific operation or garment
component. Bundles are assembled in the cutting room where cut parts are matched
up with corresponding parts and bundle tickets. The sewing operations are laid
out in sequence . Each operator receives a bundle , does his work , re-ties the
bundle and passes it to the next operator . There is usually a storage facility
such as rack, bin or table for storing the interprocess work between each operat
ion. The work is routed by means of tickets. Any imbalance in production can be
corrected by using utility workers . It is used in shirt factories, jeans factor
ies , jacket factories, etc
Advantages
Operators perform the same operation on a continuing basis, which allows them to
increase their speed and productivity. This system may allow better utilization
of specialized machines, as output from one special purpose automated machine m
ay be able to supply several operators for the next operation.

Small bundles allow faster throughput unless there are bottlenecks and extensive
waiting between operations. Semi skilled labour can be used.

Disadvantages:
1. Operators who are compensated by piece rates become extremely efficient at on
e operation and may not be willing to learn a new operation because it reduces t
heir efficiency and earnings.
2. Slow processing, absenteeism, and equipment failure may also cause major bott
lenecks within the system.
3. Large quantities of work in process
4. This may lead to longer throughput time, poor quality concealed by bundles, l
arge inventory, extra handling, and difficulty in controlling inventory.
5. It requires a high level of management skill to arrange the workflow and deci
de on the number of operators for each operation .

At this point, each operation, work station, area, process etc. must be planned
in detail. The interrelationships between machines, operators and auxiliary equi
pment must be worked out. Consideration must also be given to multiple machine o
peration, principles of motion economy and material handling to and from the wor
kplace. Each workstation must be tied into the overall flow pattern and flow thr
ough each work station must be planned as an integral part of the overall plan.

8. SELECTION OF SPECIFIC MATERIAL HANDLING EQUIPMENTS

Material handling is undertaken at every stage of logistics activity, and is an
integral part of the other elements of logistics function. Material is handled d
uring the production process, warehouses or storage, in transport, during packin
g and when goods are returned by the customer for one reason or the other. This
would insure cost reduction in the operation of the overall material handling fu
nction and increase productivity. Material handling equipment is all equipment t
hat relates to the movement, storage, control and protection of materials, goods
and products throughout the process of manufacturing, distribution, consumption
and disposal. Material handling equipment is the mechanical equipment involved
in the complete system. Material handling equipment is generally separated into
four main categories:
A. storage and handling equipment, B. engineered systems, C. industrial trucks,
and D. bulk material handling.
Material handling equipments were chosen on the basis of following three criteri
a: 1. 2. 3. Material Characteristics Move Requirements Method (Equipment) Capabi
lities
There are various kinds of equipments available for material handling. Since the
type of equipment will materially affect the layout, the layout planner should
be familiar with the characteristics and capabilities of each type. Usually the
best, most economical and most efficient handling is accomplished by an integrat
ion of different types of handling equipments.
For the selection of specific material handling equipments following points shou
Cost of the equipment delivered and installed complete with power
ld be checked:
and fuel facilities

Cost of operation Cost of maintenance Ability to do a specific job Safety aspect

of material and operator Effect on working conditions Dependability of performa
nce
A sound approach to the problem of selecting the most suitable material handling
system for a plant layout must take into consideration not only the engineering
aspects of the handling system but also the economic appraisal of the various m
aterial handling systems that lend themselves to the job to be performed.
A) Storage and handling equipment
Storage and handling equipment is a category within the material handling indust
ry. The equipment that falls under this description is usually non-automated sto
rage equipment. Products such as Pallet rack, shelving, carts, etc. belong to st
orage and handling. Selective pallet rack is an example of storage and handling
equipment.
B) Engineered systems

Engineered systems are typically custom engineered material handling systems. Co

nveyors, Handling Robots, AS/RS, AGV and most other automated material handling
systems fall into this category. Engineered systems are often a combination of p
roducts integrated to one system. Many distribution centers will optimize storag
e and picking by utilizing engineered systems such as pick modules and sortation
systems. Equipment and utensils used for processing or otherwise handling edibl
e product or ingredients must be of such material and construction to facilitate
thorough cleaning and to ensure that their use will not cause the adulteration
of product during processing, handling, or storage. Equipment and utensils must
be maintained in sanitary condition so as not to adulterate product.
C) Industrial trucks
Industrial trucks usually refer to operator driven motorized warehouse vehicles,
powered manually, by gasoline, propane or electrically. Industrial trucks assis
t the material handling system with versatility; they can go where engineered sy
stems cannot. Forklift trucks are the most common example of industrial trucks b
ut certainly aren t the extent of the category. Tow tractors and stock chasers a
re additional examples of industrial trucks.
D) Bulk material handling
Bulk material handling equipment is used to move and store bulk materials such a
s ore, liquids, and cereals. This equipment is often seen on farms, mines, shipy
ards and refineries
Different types of material handling equipment can be: Trolleys, Bins, Pallet, G
uides, Conveyor, Fork Lifters, Pallet Truck, Order Pickers, Manual handling syst
em etc.
We are here discussing the equipments our company uses :Features and Benefits of

9. Coordinate the group of related operations

Once the workplaces have been designed, interrelationships between the work area
s, related group of operations or activities should also be planned. LAYOUT PLAN
NING CHART is a useful technique at this point. This chart records the major ste
ps in each operation, forces a consideration of the steps between the operations
, points out the omissions in planning and guiding the further development of an
effective integration of operations.
10. The Activity Relationship Chart
This chart is an ideal technique for planning the relationship among any group o
f interrelated activities. It is important for: 1. Preliminary allocation of seq
uence 2. Relative location of work centres or departments 3. Location of activit
ies 4. Location of work centres 5. Showing which activities are related to each
other and why 6. Providing basis for subsequent area allocation
The various activities identified as above may now be arranged in an activity re
lationship chart based on their need to be close to each other. Before actually
making the chart, it is necessary to analyze what all departments need to be clo
se to each other and also the reason for the need of their proximity needs to be
known. For this purpose, an analysis has been

Fabric Storage Area Calculation:
Rolls to be stored in palletized form
Inventory
of 12 days ASSUMPTIONS Aisle space between racks = 1 m Main aisle = 1 m Roof He
ight = 15 m Average fabric consumption per shirt = 1.6m Total production per day
= 1250 shirts Total fabric required per day = 1250 * 1.6 = 2000 m Total consump
tion of fabric for 12 days inventory = 2,000 * 12 = 24,000 Roll Data: Total yard
age = 120 m Roll diameter = 7 inches Roll height = 62 inches Roll weight = 25 Kg
Pallet Data: Wooden Pallet Weight = 20 Kg Length = 62 inches Width = 62 inches

Height = 5 inches Total rolls in a pallet = 56 rolls (Rows = 7, Columns = 8) Fin

al Height of palletized rolls = 56 inches
Weight of one pallet = 56* 20 + 20 =11
40 Kg (It can sometimes go up to maximum of 1500 Kg) Total yardage of fabric in
one pallet = 56 * 120 m = 6720 m (It can be maximum of 7000m)
One block of the r
ack will be having: Length = 62 inches + 6 inches (allowance) = 68 inches Height
= 56 inches + 6 inches (allowance) = 62 inches Depth = 62 inches
Rail Girdles o
n all sides = 3 inches Ground clearance = 3 inches Roof Clearance = 1 feet = 12
inches
Conclusions Total number of pallets for storing = 25 pallets Max rack height = 7
m = 23 feet = 275 inches (But 7.5 m height racks to be made, so that smaller si
ze pallets can be stored there) In the single block of a rack, 1 pallet needs to
be stored. Total blocks required = Number of pallets In one column, we will hav
e 4 blocks. Total no of columns= 50 In a row, we will have 10 such columns. Tota
l no of racks = 5 Total minimum height consumed = 266 inches Length of racks = 1
8m
Other equipments in a store are: Fabric inspection m/c = 2 (7 feet x 6 feet x 2)
Fabric inspection table = 1 (10 feet x 6 feet) Fabric inspection machines = 1 (
5 feet x 7 feet)

 Lab = 1 (125 sq feet) Office = 1 (125 sq feet) Articulated Fork Lifter = 1

Warehouse Area Calculation (Palletized Cartons ASSUMPTIONS Dimension of a carton
= 60 cm x 40 cm x 30 18 shirts per carton Peak Total Inventory = days
Roof Height = 8 m In a single
et, number of shirts = 18* 18 =
the movement of fork lifter.
= 3 inches Ground clearance =

pallet 18 cartons would be there (3*2*3) In a pall

324 Aisle space between 2 racks would be 2 m for
The main aisle of 3.5 m Rail Girdles on all sides
3 inches Roof Clearance = 1 feet = 12 inches

Pallet Dimensions: Total number of shirts in 12 days = 150000 shirts Total no of

cartons in warehouse at a time = 1, 20,000/18 = 6,666 cartons. Total no of pall
ets to be stored = 6,666/18 = 150 pallets Racks dimension: Length = 14 m Breadth
= 0.9 m Height = 1m Total Height = 7m Length = 1.8m Width = 0.8m Height = 1.0m
Total production per day = 1250 lm
