Abstract

In this paper the development of a layout for a shopping centre on a given site in Stellenbosch is discussed. Specific attention is given to the input used to define the affinity between shops, the objective function used to measure the efficiency of layouts for purposes of comparison, and the computor assisted procedure followed in developing the layout. The paper is a followup of an article by the same author in the April 1979 issue of this journal on the Industrial Engineering approach to layout planning.
