Plant Layout Lecture Notes

Lesson 141 of  Industrial Engineering ONLINE Course.

Sub-Module in Process Improvement - Transport - Material Handling Operations

Lessons  136  -  137  - 138 - 139 - 140 -  141



An effective facility layout ensures that there is a smooth and steady flow of production material, equipment and manpower at minimum cost. Facility layout looks at physical allocation of space for economic activity in the plant. Therefore, main objective of the facility layout planning is to design effective workflow as to make equipment and workers more productive.

Like the subject area of process planning which plans the process to be used to produce a part or an assembly, there is the subject area facilities planning that deals with infrastructure facilities as well as production and related equipment. Layout of facilities is discussed as a topic in facilities planning. But full length books on plant layout are available.

Industrial engineers may evaluate system level resources and activities like facilities selection and facilities layout independently. They also evaluate the facilities for replacement during process improvement studies. Facilities related to processing operations, inspection operations, material handling and transport operations, and warehousing operations are examined for appropriateness and replacement. Plant layouts of an assembly line for a single product can be examined during process improvement study of that product.

Plant Layout Books



Plant Layout in Apparel Manufacturing

Suresh Dureja, Dr. Prabir Jana, Y.P. Garg, Paul Collyer, Paul F. Bowes, Piyush R Vyas
Apparel Resources Publication, 16-Jun-2020 - Technology & Engineering - 53 pages
The foremost and the most important step of establishing a business is setting up a factory. While designing of a factory layout has been nowadays handed over to professional architects, the apparel manufacturers must have a basic knowledge of what a ‘good’ factory layout actually means. A good factory layout offers minimum transportation time and flexibility with no back and forth motion. This series is a one-stop solution for all the factors to be considered, apart from the checklist, and the ways to maximum optimise the factory along with case studies of apparel manufacturing plant layouts in India.



An Applied Guide to Process and Plant Design

Sean Moran
Elsevier, 12-Jun-2019 - Technology & Engineering - 556 pages

An Applied Guide to Process and Plant Design, 2nd edition, is a guide to process plant design for both students and professional engineers. The book covers plant layout and the use of spreadsheet programs and key drawings produced by professional engineers as aids to design; subjects that are usually learned on the job rather than in education. You will learn how to produce smarter plant design through the use of computer tools, including Excel and AutoCAD, “What If Analysis, statistical tools, and Visual Basic for more complex problems. The book also includes a wealth of selection tables, covering the key aspects of professional plant design which engineering students and early-career engineers tend to find most challenging.

Professor Moran draws on over 20 years’ experience in process design to create an essential foundational book ideal for those who are new to process design, compliant with both professional practice and the IChemE degree accreditation guidelines.

Includes new and expanded content, including illustrative case studies and practical examples
Explains how to deliver a process design that meets both business and safety criteria
Covers plant layout and the use of spreadsheet programs and key drawings as aids to design
Includes a comprehensive set of selection tables, covering aspects of professional plant design which early-career designers find most challenging


The Engineer's Guide to Plant Layout and Piping Design for the Oil and Gas Industries

Geoff B. Barker
Gulf Professional Publishing, 25-Nov-2017 - Business & Economics - 532 pages

The Engineer’s Guide to Plant Layout and Piping Design for the Oil and Gas Industries gives pipeline engineers and plant managers a critical real-world reference to design, manage, and implement safe and effective plants and piping systems for today’s operations. This book fills a training void with complete and practical understanding of the requirements and procedures for producing a safe, economical, operable and maintainable process facility. Easy to understand for the novice, this guide includes critical standards, newer designs, practical checklists and rules of thumb.

Due to a lack of structured training in academic and technical institutions, engineers and pipe designers today may understand various computer software programs but lack the fundamental understanding and implementation of how to lay out process plants and run piping correctly in the oil and gas industry. Starting with basic terms, codes and basis for selection, the book focuses on each piece of equipment, such as pumps, towers, underground piping, pipe sizes and supports, then goes on to cover piping stress analysis and the daily needed calculations to use on the job.

Delivers a practical guide to pipe supports, structures and hangers available in one go-to source
Includes information on stress analysis basics, quick checks, pipe sizing and pressure drop
Ensures compliance with the latest piping and plant layout codes and complies with worldwide risk management legislation and HSE
Focuses on each piece of equipment, such as pumps, towers, underground piping, pipe sizes and supports
Covers piping stress analysis and the daily needed calculations to use on the job

Process Plant Layout


Sean Moran
Butterworth-Heinemann, 16-Nov-2016 - Architecture - 756 pages

Process Plant Layout, Second Edition, explains the methodologies used by professional designers to layout process equipment and pipework, plots, plants, sites, and their corresponding environmental features in a safe, economical way. It is supported with tables of separation distances, rules of thumb, and codes of practice and standards.

The book includes more than seventy-five case studies on what can go wrong when layout is not properly considered. Sean Moran has thoroughly rewritten and re-illustrated this book to reflect advances in technology and best practices, for example, changes in how designers balance layout density with cost, operability, and safety considerations.

The content covers the ‘why’ underlying process design company guidelines, providing a firm foundation for career growth for process design engineers. It is ideal for process plant designers in contracting, consultancy, and for operating companies at all stages of their careers, and is also of importance for operations and maintenance staff involved with a new build, guiding them through plot plan reviews.

Based on interviews with over 200 professional process plant designers
Explains multiple plant layout methodologies used by professional process engineers, piping engineers, and process architects
Includes advice on how to choose and use the latest CAD tools for plant layout
Ensures that all methodologies integrate to comply with worldwide risk management legislation
