Material Handling

In the block layouts three areas have been demarcated for

material handling, where they will be performing certain
functions and those functions alone. The demarcated
areas will mainly cover the areas that will experience the
most frequent movement by handling equipment on a day
to day basis. The distances covered by handling
equipment within these demarcated areas will be
analyzed and taking in consideration during the evaluation
process

Evaluation and Analysis

Conclusion

The physical site that is required to house a Centralised Depot in the

eMakhazeni area will be of the size 20262 Square Meter

The proposed facility layout that is recommended to be implemented or used

as a benchmark will be block layout 2 as this was determined the most
feasible design by the weighted factor comparison method
