Standard Components

Standard Components A to E

Standard Components are a core aspect of iHFG – International Health Facility Guidelines. These components provide detailed information on the most common rooms and spaces which are found in health facilities. Each component is comprised of a Room Data Sheet (RDS) and Room Layout Sheet (RLS).

Room Data Sheets (RDS’s) represent the detailed briefing requirements of individual room types. Some RDS’s provide options for certain elements such as materials. If an external document refers to these RDS’s, without qualifying the choice of options, then the default options will prevail. In case of any discrepancy between various documents, the RDS’s will take precedence.

Room layout sheets (RLS) present with the physical arrangement of these items in the standard room and often are accompanied by Autodesk Revit or AutoCAD documents to assist the design process.

To gain an insight into how a set of Standard Components can be best used to design a health facility please refer to Part B: Health Facility Briefing and Design.
