Question

A _____ is used for goods that must be produced at a specific site or that are so large and bulky that it isn't feasible to move them from station to station.

Answer 1

fixed position

Step-by-step explanation:

A fixed position layout is where a product to be produced remains in a certain spot or location but the workers needed to work on the product , including machinery are moved to the place where the product is to be produced as at when required. This is because there may be limited space at the project site, hence component parts of the product to be manufactured are then coupled at other site and taken to the product site.

An example of fixed layout is the construction of dams, shipbuilding, buildings etc. A fixed position layout is most suited for heavy and fragile products.
