Re: Build Site Size
The "per team member" unit is interesting. We're at about 75 square feet per team member, not counting two storage containers and it isn't anywhere near enough, considering all the equipment we have. Keep in mind, machinery takes up a lot of space.
After doing this 13 years, we occupy about 3200 square feet of space. And that does not include any Vex activities, any video production, poster printing, or practice space at all. It also does not include any permanent lecture area that can seat more than 12 people, or any computer lab area with more than 12 seats. That's all lab and storage space, and that includes only two large project workbenches.
For a very comprehensive all inclusive well established program, it would be nice to have more on the order of 10,000 square feet. In a mall, that sort of space could cost in excess of $10,000 per month.
