Abstract
This paper presents a layout technique for the multiple floor layout problems. Compared with the carriage in horizontal way, the carriage in vertical way needs more cost dramatically and gets complicated with the assignment for each carriage, because of using vertical transportation equipment such as elevator. Then we need multiple floor layout algorithms that consider proper location and number of vertical transportation equipment. We considered about the area of elevator inside the facility and several kinds of vertical transportation equipment, draw up the approximate optimum layout by Space Filling Curve, examine the possibility about the layout in practice consideration about timing of production, and suggest more realistic multiple floor layout algorithm.
