    KITCHEN’S STANDARDS

    HOUSES AND RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS

    Ref. Neufert 3rd and 4th edition 1


    INTRODUCTION
    • The kitchen is a workplace inside the home and at the same time
    an important living room and meeting point for the occupants
    and their guests, with various relationships to other areas of the
    house.
    • According to the building regulations, every house or flat must
    have at least one kitchen or kitchenette for cooking.
    • Kitchens and kitchenettes without windows are generally
    undesirable and only permissible if effective ventilation is
    guaranteed.
    • As a habitable room, the kitchen must have a clear ceiling height
    of at least 2.40 m and a window area (structural dimensions) of at EFFECTIVE KITCHEN WORKPLACE ARRANGEMENT
    least 1/s of the net floor area.

    LOCATION
    • The location of the kitchen is ideally on the northeast or
    northwest, in the immediate vicinity of the entrance area (short
    distances for shopping, rubbish etc.), to the (vegetable) garden
    and the cellar.
    • There should be sensible internal room relationships with the
    • dining room, utility room and larder.
    • It should ideally be possible to see the front door, children's play
    area and terrace from the kitchen.

    KITCHEN’S STANDARDS

    RESTAURANT KITCHENS

    Ref. Neufert 3rd and 4th edition 7


    FUNCTION AND ORGANISATION

    • The capacity of the kitchen is primarily dependent on the number of


    customer seats, customer expectations (type, extent and quality of
    the meals offered), the proportion of products freshly prepared from
    raw (in contrast to ready-prepared food) and the rate of customer
    turnover all day or at mealtimes (consumer frequency).
    • In fast food restaurants the rule of thumb for seat changes is about 1-
    3 times per hour, in conventional restaurants about 2.
    • In specialty and evening-based restaurants, the guests stay on
    average for 1.3-2 hours.

    PERCENTAGE OF TOTAL KITCHEN SPACE REQUIREMENT

    • Aisle widths in storage, preparation and production areas differ


    according to whether they are purely traffic routes or also overlap the
    service area.
    • Working aisle widths should be 0.90-1.20 m, side traffic routes with
    (temporary) overlapping use 1.50-1.80 m and main traffic routes
    (transport and two-way through traffic) 2.10-3.30 m wide.
    • For kitchen areas in small to medium restaurants, aisle widths of
    1.00-1.50 m should be sufficient.

    TOILET’S STANDARDS

    RESIDENTIAL BUILDINGS

    Ref. Neufert 3rd and 4th edition 10


    INTRODUCTION
    • A bathroom is defined as an independent room with bath/shower and
    toilet and, according to building regulations, belongs to the
    minimum equipment of a flat or house. In larger houses, bath and we
    should be in separate rooms, or an additional we (guest WC) should
    be provided.
    • The bathroom should be oriented to the north, and if possible have
    natural ventilation and lighting.
    • The bathroom is normally next to the bedroom although it is also
    often convenient for technical reasons to place bath and kitchen (or
    we and kitchen) on a common installation shaft.

    11
    SPACE REQUIREMENTS FOR BATHROOM AND WC UNITS
    DETAILS AND FITTING OUT

    The former standard valid for movement areas in bathrooms was


    withdrawn without replacement in 2007, because it inadequately
    considered the requirements of disabled people. The dimensions given
    here should therefore be considered as absolute minimums. The
    movement areas in bathrooms should generally be based on the
    'Accessible building' standard.

    The basic bathroom categories are: (guest) WCs with we and washbasin
    -3-4 , shower rooms with shower and basin -5-6, bathrooms with bath,
    washbasin and WC -7-8. full bathrooms with bath, shower, washbasin
    and WC-10

    • The kitchen should not open into a shaft.

    NBC GUIDELINES RELATED TO BATHROOMS


    • One of the walls should have an opening to the open air. Minimum ventilation or window space should be provided
    measuring up to 0.37 sq meters.
    • A bathroom must always be over another bathroom or washing place or the terrace space and not over another room.
    Watertight floors can be an exception to this rule.
    • The seat should be made of non-absorbent material.
    • Bathrooms should be enclosed by partitions/walls, provided with an impervious surface with a height prescribed as not
    less than one meter.
    • The floor covering should be impervious too but sloping towards the drain and not towards any other room or balcony
    space.
    • A room provided with a water closet is to be used as a toilet only. These rooms must be provided with flush cisterns.
    • If there is a toilet on the terrace with a height of 2.2 meters, it should be counted in the Floor Area Ratio (FAR).
