The type of layout used for manufacturing steam turbines, is

A Product layout
B Process layout
C Fixed position layout
D Any one of these

Correct Answer: Fixed position layout

In a fixed position layout, personnel, supplies, and equipment are brought to the site where the product will be assembled, rather than the product being moved through an assembly line or set of assembly stations.
Other fixed-position layout examples include construction shipbuilding, aircraft, aerospace, farming, drilling for oil, home repair, and automated car washes.
