Redesigning and refurbishing laboratories in hospitals. Part 2

One of the most important issues to clarify is to distinguish between wet labs and dry labs, and core facilities. Of course, one of the reasons for defining wet labs and dry labs is cost. Wet labs are considerably more expensive than dry labs and so flexibility of wet lab use is critical. Both can be built on the same floor (of a multi-storey building) but the two should be kept in separate areas.
