Data Center Project Planning: Establishing a Floor Plan

* Define a data center floor plan * Discuss floor planning concepts; including structural room and equipment layouts * Describe the effects of the floor plan on data center performance * Review basic principles of both equipment layouts and structural room layouts * Identify the floor planning sequence * Avoid common errors in equipment layout
A floor plan strongly affects The power density capability and electrical efficiency of a data center. yet many floor plans are established through incremental deployment without a central plan. Once a poor floor plan has been deployed, It is often difficult or impossible to recover The resulting loss of performance. this course provides structured floor plan guidelines for defining room layouts and for establishing It equipment layouts within existing rooms. This is the fourth course in the data center projects series. Course Credits: * This course has been approved by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) for one (1) PDH * This course is recognized for continuing education credit from IFMA for CFM/FMP Maintenance Points.
