Short description
In factory planning projects, it is important to establish agreement on the nature of the new factory between the client and the professional planners at the beginning of the project. For this, a morphological model of the facility is described in the factory planning to target setting in order to establish this common understanding. The morphological model defines different design fields and their design objects with their possible specifications: a common understanding of the yet to be built factory between users, planners and owners (team building process right at the start of project); reduction of iterations in the planning process by providing clear and binding agreements in a heterogeneous and multi-disciplinary planning team (resulting in reduced coordination effort later in the project); discussion of alternative forms of expression and economic characteristics which influence the investment and operating costs; formulation of the qualitative goals such as transformation ability, level of technologizing, flexibility, architectural look. Target groups of the guideline are the responsible persons at the user or the owner side and the factory and the project planners who are entrusted with the performance of the factory or industrial construction project planning.
