Facilities Planning Guide
While not all technology education laboratories will look exactly the same, there are certain
laboratory requirements that should be included in any technology education laboratory
design. These designated areas are defined in this standards-based ITEEA Facilities Planning
Guide and provide logical and specific guidelines for designing and implementing a standards-based
laboratory in your local school, no matter what the size.
While the primary focus of this guide is on the senior high school laboratory requirements,
the elements and recommendations are appropriate and relevant to any middle school-level
laboratory and should be incorporated in any laboratory design.
Some of the topics covered in the Guide:
• Curriculum Considerations
• “Center of Applied Learning” Sample Floor Plan
• “Center of Applied Learning” Facility Criteria
• Laboratory Design Considerations:
• Class Size/Laboratory Size/Laboratory Design
• Lighting/Aesthetics/Decor
• Safety
• Security/Noise Control
• Environment Control/Utilities
• Furnishings/Special Needs Considerations
• Laboratory Cost Considerations
• Technology Education Vendors List
• Laboratory Design Model Programs
