Hi, my office will be moving in June 2003. I am working on the blue prints for the new server room and they have asked me draw the furniture and arrangement of the room. We are implementing a new rack system with this move and I am not sure where to start. Does anyone have any examples that they can scan in and send to me.

Thank you.

You might want to take a look at Microsoft Visio. Not only will it allow you to do floor plans, you can also do Rack diagrams, and network diagrams.

As far as physical layout, there is no "standard." You know what furishings will be going into the room. You just need to ensure you have adequate access, to anything that will need to be plugged, reconfigured, replaced, etc. If your space is already wired for electricity, placement may be driven by proximity to electrical outlets.

Good luck.
