Human Factors in Designing Workspace: Customizing Kitchen Counter Design

Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing, 2017

Human factors focus on human beings and their interaction with products, equipment, facilities, procedures, and environments used in work and everyday living. Emphasis is on human beings rather than on technical considerations. Designing a workspace is based on the principle that there are correlations between workspace and body dimensions that cause body posture to be adapted. The current research aims at designing Kitchen workspace, Kitchen is the most important room in any household, where maximum work is carried out. The paper addresses the problems faced while working in kitchen. It reflects some suggestions to avoid fatigue and musculoskeletal disorder. This will result in efficient, fast and pleasurable cooking with less efforts.

Location of kitchen work areas with the microwave oven as the main type of cooking unit

Journal of Consumer Studies and Home Economics, 1987

The premise for this study was the changing nature of food management and its effects on kitchen design. The study sought to determine a location rating for kitchen work areas with a microwave oven serving as the primary cooking unit. The findings are based on careful analysis of the use of various kitchen work areas and the connections between them. There were obvious differences in the use of work areas and in the connections between them when different food management methods were used. The microwave oven proved a very important work area in the kitchen and should have a good connection, at least with the work top and dining table. There is frequently a need for a work surface in conjunction with the microwave oven. The study also includes development of a computerized layout model.

Mechanical Design of Mixing Equipment

Mixing equipment must be designed for mechanical and process operation. Although mixer design begins with a focus on process requirements, the mechanical design is essential for successful operation. Usually, a competent manufacturer of mixing equipment will take responsibility for the mechanical design. However, process conditions, such as impeller operation near a liquid surface, can impose severe mechanical loads. Similarly, the process environment will influence the selection of a motor enclosure. In many ways the process requirements can have a direct impact on the mechanical design. In other ways, such as the natural frequency of a mixer shaft, appropriate mechanical design must be determined by the equipment designer. Whatever the reason, knowledge of the mechanical requirements for a mixer will help guide the engineer toward a design that will meet both process and mechanical criteria.

Integration of occupational health and safety in the facility layout planning, part II: design of the kitchen of a hospital

International Journal of Production Research, 2014

ABSTRACT Facility layout design has an important effect on the performance of manufacturing systems. It intends to determine relative location of departments and machines within a plant. A good layout design must ensure that a set of criteria and objectives are met and optimised, e.g. area requirements, cost, communication and safety. The most common objective used in facility planning methods is to minimise the transportation cost. However, factors such as the plant safety, flexibility for future design changes, noise and aesthetics must be considered as well. In this paper, a case study is carried out to investigate the safety concerns in facility layout design. In this regard, a facility layout planning methodology, integrating occupational health and safety (OHS) is presented. This methodology considers transportation cost as well as safety in the facility design. By this means, OHS issues are considered at the design stage of the facility. In other words, this research demonstrates the improvements in the layout design by integrating safety aspects.

Kitchens : development of the plan

Locate the kitchen to avoid general traffic through its work area and to be convenient to the dining and living area(s) of the house. In addition, the location of the kitchen depends upon:

Simetral balance minimalist kitchen

The design of the furniture or the furniture itself it is a product that is used by any of us, nowadays there are so many different kinds of materials, shapes, sizes, functions that a specific design contains, the is difficult for designers to contribute ideas that are new, while the still satisfy all the needs of the consumer. One such part is the kitchen which holds a special place in space. The kitchen is the room where the day area has a great feature in an interior space. It is in close functional relationship with the dining room and living room. Space and form which make the artwork in the zone day. Simplicity, balance of shapes colors and materials primarily free trajectory.

Kitchens : cabinets and countertops

1984

Cabinets are usually the most expensive item in the kitchen. Normally, kitchen storage is provided with cabinets having door fronts, but some people enjoy the convenience and appearance of some or all open shelves, and/or some hanging storage. For the well-organized and well-kept kitchen, the nuisance of opening and closing doors could be avoided with the TYPES OF CABINETS AVAILABLE Price Fit to Type of Cabinets Description Range Kitchen Stock Mass manufactured, Low to If not available in middle exact use standard sizes fillers
