Automotive Workshop Planning and design
Planning of a layout is important because the organization will stay with it for a long time and rectifying of the mistake in the actual layout could be costly. The mistakes should thus be rectified on the paper before the actual movement of equipment starts (Tompkins, 2006). Some of the factors to consider during planning include size of the station, type of work that outweighs in its function, material, equipment and manpower requirements. Most automotive workshops in Saudi Arabia do not have a good layout plan, actually it is like garage with just one access.

This is the type of layout used for general repairs work. Here, the workshop area is painted with lines to form working bays. The area for each working bay is about 18m2 that makes a good working area to work around a vehicle for general repair works. Each repair bay must have a bench with a vice and certain services like an intercommunication system with the store, welfare facilities, ventilation, air line connections, good lighting, plug points, oil dispenser, inspection light points and access to special tools.
