WORK bays with two-way telephonic VY communication to a glass observation tower are features of a new £150,000 vehicle repair shop recently completed at Paarden Island, Capetown. It is claimed to be the most modern in South Africa. By fitting loudspeakers in the bays, mechanics may be given instructions without their having to leave their jobs.
In the reception office is an electric indicator which shows which departments are available to receive work and which are fully engaged. The building covers two acres and has a series of concrete roof arches especially designed to require minimum pillar support.
