Problem 1: Use the SLP method to construct a facility involving the following activity relationship chart: (a) Relationship diagram (b) Space relationship diagram (c) Convert the REL diagram to a block layout (with size considerations). The size of each department is the number directly to the right in the REL chart. These numbers are in sq. ft. Hint: you can use excel and assign each block a unit of space (EX: 1 block =500 ft) (d) Create one alternative block layout to the one created in (c). e) Select one of the two alternatives you have created and give 2 reasons why you would choose that alternative.
