When calculating the space required for the receiving and shipping staging area, the number of receiving and shipping dock doors and the turnaround time for each dock would be considered.
A common practice is to allocate enough staging space behind each dock door to accommodate a truckload’s worth of material.
You would need to:
Define the materials received and shipped
Determine the dock bay requirements
Determine the dock bay configuration
Determine the manoeuvring allowances inside the warehouse
Define the buffer and staging area requirements
Define the dock-related space requirements
Use of a receiving and shipping analysis chart (RSAC) helps to determine space requirement
Columns 1 – 5 define what is to be received or shipped
Column 6 displays the size of the shipment
Column 7 shows when the receipts and shipments will occur
Columns 8 – 9 list the types of carriers
Columns 10 – 11 show the handling methods and time required for loading and unloading.
