Conception ergonomique des centres de commande - Partie 2: Principes pour l'aménagement de la salle de commande et de ses annexes (ISO 11064-2:2000)

La présente partie de l'ISO 11064 couvre les principes ergonomiques de conception des centres de commande, et plus précisément les différents aménagements des salles et des espaces constituant la salle de commande et ses annexes. Les principes sont basés sur une analyse des fonctions et des tâches devant être prises en charge par la salle de commande et les salles qui lui sont fonctionnellement   associées. Ces principes incluent l'identification des zones fonctionnelles, l'estimation de l'espace nécessaire à chaque zone fonctionnelle, la détermination des liens opérationnels entre chacune de ces zones, et le développement d'agencements préliminaires de la salle de commande et de ses annexes en vue de faciliter la transition entre toutes les activités réalisées dans ces salles.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 11064 may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

ISO 11064-2:2000(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 11064 considers ergonomic principles, recommendations and guidelines for the layout of control
suites.
ISO 11064 covers all types of control centres, including those for the processing industry, for transport and for the
control and communication systems of emergency services. Though ISO 11064 is primarily intended for non-mobile
control centres, many of the principles are relevant to mobile centres such as those found on ships, locomotives
and aircraft.
User requirements are a central theme of this part of ISO 11064 and the processes described are designed to take
the needs of users into account at all stages. The overall strategy for dealing with user requirements is specified in
ISO 11064-1.
This part of ISO 11064 provides guidance on the design and planning of the control suite in relation to its
supporting areas. Requirements for the layout of the control room are specified in ISO 11064-3. Requirements for
the design of workstations, displays and controls, human-computer interaction and physical working environment
are specified in ISO 11064-4 to ISO 11064-6. Evaluation principles are dealt with in ISO 11064-7.
ISO 11064-1 to ISO 11064-7 cover general principles of ergonomic design appropriate to a range of control
sectors. The specific requirements appropriate to particular sectors or applications are specified in ISO 11064-8.
The requirements specified in ISO 11064-8 are to be read in conjunction with ISO 11064-1 to ISO 11064-7.
The main beneficiaries of this part of ISO 11064 are the operators and other users in the control suite. It is the
needs of these users that provide the ergonomic requirements used by the International Standard developers.
Although it is unlikely that the end-user will read ISO 11064, or even know of its existence, its application should
provide the user with interfaces that are more usable, a working environment that is more consistent with
operational demands and result in a solution which will minimize error and enhance productivity.

Ergonomic design of control centres —
Part 2:
Principles for the arrangement of control suites
1 Scope
This part of ISO 11064 covers ergonomic design principles for control centres and, more specifically, the various
arrangements of rooms and spaces in a control suite. The principles are based on an analysis of functions and
tasks that have to be supported by the control room and functionally-related rooms. They include identifying
functional areas, estimating the space provisions for each functional area, determining operational links between
functional areas and developing preliminary layouts for the control suite to facilitate the transition between all the
activities conducted in the control suite.

4 Design procedure for arrangement of control suites
4.1 General approach
A general approach to the design of work systems shall be in accordance with ISO 6385 and EN 614-1. The
multipart standard ISO 11064 discusses the application of the general approach to the design, redesign or
refurbishment of control centres. The objectives of the aforementioned standards are to design the work system in
consistency with human capabilities, limitations and needs. Consequently, an analysis of the existing or a
comparable situation is required. Clause 4 explains how to apply the general approach to the analysis when
designing control centres. In particular, it concerns the activities needed to enable the architectural planning (for
example space planning) of the general layout of a control suite. Detailed engineering design of the control room
suite, operator workstations and the human-computer interfaces are covered in subsequent parts of ISO 11064.
The development of a site plan (also called plot plan) has particular implications for the control suite. A site plan is
a mapping of all process units, major equipment, buildings and routing on a production site or within a production
building. The site plan includes the location of production units, buildings, traffic systems and so on. The layout of
the control centre includes the location of the control suite relative to the processes to be monitored and controlled,
workstations and other equipment.
Emphasis of this part of ISO 11064 is on ergonomic considerations for the overall design of a control suite, based
on such factors as the layout of the control centre, job content and work organization. It includes the location of the
control room suite relative to the production site.
It is recognized that many other factors (for example economic factors, size, shape and surroundings of the area,
existing parts of the site) will also be considered and will be of major importance for decision making. However, the
user of this part of ISO 11064 should be aware that the physical location of a control suite relative to the sub-
systems to be controlled and/or monitored establishes constraints for the design of the control room, workstations
and jobs. Amongst other things, this part of ISO 11064 specifies routing, distances, communication patterns and
the level of flexibility in job and work organization design. In some cases, the physical location is critical as the
control room is operationally dependent on location (for example site security, reception), whereas, in other cases,
location may be irrelevant.

Where physically challenged control suite users or visitors are expected, adequate facilities should be taken into
account during design.
4.2 Steps in the design of control suites
The general layout of a plant or production unit, a process description, main process operating principles and the
general layout of buildings are important considerations at the beginning of a project. The process of designing a
control centre usually consists of several project phases, as follows:
Phase A: Clarification
Phase B: Analysis and problem definition
Phase C: Conceptual design
Phase D: Detailed design
Phase E: Implementation and operational feedback
For further information, see ISO 11064-1.
The principles of an ergonomic design (see ISO 11064-1:2000, clause 4) for control suite arrangement should be
developed and used during phase C. In order to ensure effective input to a project concerning the layout of control
suites, the following project steps are recommended (see Figures 1 and 2 of ISO 11064-1:2000, step 9A):
� during phase A, functional requirements are generated;
� the starting point for the conceptual design consists of a description of the intended performance of the work
system (system functions) and an overview of tasks to be performed within the work system, including an
allocation of tasks to human operators or technical equipment (see 4.3);
� the general layout of the site or production facility, including the location of a control suite (see 4.4), can be
determined;
� an overview of space requirements for the control suite should be made. A useful approach to this is to list the
tasks to be performed in the control suite, and to attach to each task an overview of the requirements imposed
on the workstation and other facilities. The resulting task zones should then be arranged into workstations in
such a way that the requirements are met (see 4.5).
Typically, the layout of the control suite is baselined at the start of phase D. During this phase any design changes
shall be controlled.
User input shall be an integral part of the development of a control suite. User participation is a structured approach
of employing future users and all others involved in the design project (see [2] in the Bibliography). User
participation shall be organized by an expert in this field (for example an ergonomist). In general, the first
communication between users and the project team arises at the time of a situation analysis. Assuming that such a
communication has been established, the project team should consult the users on the layout of the control suite.
Amongst the various tools that can be used to facilitate an effective consultation on building layout are, for
example, a scale-model or layout board (for example a magnetic space planning board), or a three dimensional
computer graphics model.
