The programmer tabulates the space requirements of all personnel job categories and group requirements by using the newly developed or revised space standards. A circulation factor is assigned to each type of spaces and then sum together to arrive at the unit's summary. Many programmer likes to use an average circulation factor of 25% to the entire organizational unit but others like to use different circulation factors for different types of spaces. A common practice is to use 30% circulation factor for personnel private spaces, 25% for personnel semi-private spaces and 15% for personnel open spaces. For group requirements, the support spaces usually do not need any circulation factor because the isles that take people to the workstations are the same for support areas. If needed, add a 25% circulation factor. Special use areas receive 30 to 35% circulation factor due to traffic density. For large corporations, using the different circulation factors can be a meaningful space saving technique because the numbers of personnel with open stations are substantial.
