Mining camp layout basics

Mining camps add rotation, dust, water supply and clinic requirements versus construction sites. Layout drives the BOQ and the batch plan.

Typical zoning

Separate worker dorm strips, management dorm, canteen/kitchen, central sanitary, clinic, office and guard at the gate. Haul roads and fire lanes between blocks per local practice or client HSE.

Module ratios (reference)

FunctionTypical vs dorm areaNotes
Sanitary0.15–0.22Central blocks, shift peaks
Canteen0.12–0.18Meal shifts
ClinicOptional 24–60 m²+Remote sites

Phased delivery

First batch: office, guard, partial sanitary. Second: main dorm strips. Third: canteen and clinic if not in batch two. Align with roster move-in dates to limit idle units on site.

Typical specifications for reference only. Final dimensions, materials and quantities per signed drawings and order.
