Space Specification for Laboratory Design Planning

Modern laboratory is a system engineering, an overall experimental space planning layout. The design and planning of the laboratory space focus not only on the accuracy and reliability of experimental results but also on efficiency, safety and sustainability. The following are some spatial standard specifications:

1. Height

When no air conditioning is set, it should not be less than 2.70m; When setting the air conditioning, it should not be lower than 2.40m. Walkway height should not be less than 2.20m. The indoor net height of the special laboratory should be determined according to the requirements of the size, installation and maintenance of the experimental equipment.

2. Width

The space of the standard laboratory unit should be determined by the width, arrangement and spacing of the test table; it should not be less than 6.60m.

3. Depth

The depth of the conventional laboratory unit should be determined by the length of the experimental bench, the layout of the fume hood and the experimental equipment, It should not be less than 6.60m, and if there is no fume hood, it should not be less than 5.70m.

4. Doors

The width of the laboratory door composed of 1/2 standard units should not be less than 1m, and the height should not be less than 2.10m. The width of the laboratory door composed of one or more standard units shall not be less than 1.20m, and the height shall not be less than 2.10m. The size of the door of the room with special requirements should be determined according to the specific situation. The door of the laboratory shall be provided with an observation window.

5. Equipment spacing

The clear distance of the side test bench arranged by the two sides of the wall should not be less than 1.50m. When the detox cabinet or experimental equipment is arranged on one side of the wall, the clear distance between it and the other side of the experimental platform should not be less than 1.80m. For a conventional laboratory composed of a standard unit, the clear distance between the side test platform arranged by the two sides of the wall and the island or peninsula central test platform arranged in the middle of the room should not be less than 1.50m. When arranging detox cabinets or experimental equipment, the clear distance between them and the test bench should not be less than 1.80m. The clear distance between the end of the laminar flow workbench and the aisle wall should not be less than 1.20m.

6. Experimental platform layout

Common experimental platforms are island-type or peninsula-type central experimental platforms and side experimental platforms. It should not be attached to the side test platform arranged by the window wall, and the island-type or peninsula-type central test platform should not be arranged parallel to the outside window. When it must be arranged in parallel with the external window, the clear distance between it and the external wall should not be less than 1.30m.
