Twelve controlled figures that settle the hygienic design of a food establishment on paper, before a wall is built.
Overview
A visual reference from the AGS Design and Engineering Series, this set distils the principles of hygienic design and construction of food establishments into twelve controlled figures, each carrying its own register entry. It runs from the seven design objectives and the choice of site through to a complete model layout for a restaurant and kitchen, turning rules that are usually argued in prose into drawings a room full of people can agree on.
It is the graphic companion to the AGS design guidelines: one editable document rather than a system, made to be projected in a briefing, marked up in a plan review and issued alongside a drawing package.
What it covers
- The seven design objectives, site selection and ground strategy, and the master site plan
- Zoning and process flow as a portrait master, with building layout configurations in I, L and U shapes
- Floor build-up and the coved junction, lighting levels and airflow direction
- Drainage as two systems running in one direction, and pest exclusion by design
- Personnel entry sequence, equipment installation and clearances, and a model restaurant and kitchen layout
Who it's for
Architects, food-facility design engineers, consultants, project managers and regulators who need a standardised visual language for hygienic facility design, plan review and construction supervision. It earns its place the moment a layout is reviewed or a contractor briefed, giving everyone in the room the same picture of zoning, flow and clearances.
