Also there are quite amount of research work on crossdocking facility design. Barthold and Gue [11] de-termined the best shape for a crossdock by analyzing the assignment of receiving and shipping docks. The staging of products in a crossdock to avoid floor congestion and increase throughput has also been studied together with the effects of different combinations of number of work-ers in receiving and shipping on throughput [12]. A simulated annealing procedure was used to construct ef- fective layout to reduce labour costs [13]. A simulation model of a generic cross-docking facility [14] to examine the operational risks associated with individual cross-docking facilities within a company’s distribution net-work under a dynamic environment.
