Questions $1$:

Through what we have learned in class or by research, define and explain each Material Handling Equipment $($MHE$)$ category. Provide an example for each category. $(3$ Marks$)$

Questions $2$:

Through what we have learned in class or by

research, define and explain each type of warehouse?

Questions $3$:

Consider a warehouse illustrated by the figure below. Thirty$-$two bays $(25\text{'}$ x $25\text{'})$ are available for storage. Four different types of products $($A$,$ B$,$ C$,$ and D$)$ are to be stored. Each type of product cannot share a bay with any other type of product. Products are received from dock $1$ and are shipped out in equal proportion from docks $2$ and $3.$ The area requirement and weekly load rate for each of these four products are shown in the table below:

$\backslash$table$[[$Product$,$Area $(f{t}^2),$Weekly Load Rate$],[$A$,4,375,500],[$B$,7,500,600],[$C$,1,500,700],[$D$,6,250,400]]$

Determine the layout that will minimize the average distance traveled per week.
