Industrial engineering?
and what is the difference between motion study and time study?? please help me.
Answer:
Work methods: Study of production sequence,material flow,plant layout, time and motion, and the economics of materials and methods of fabrication.
A time and motion study would be used to reduce the number of motions in performing a task in order to increase productivity. The best known experiment involved bricklaying. Through carefully scrutinising a bricklayer's job, Frank Gilbreth reduced the number of motions in laying a brick from 18 to about 5. Hence the bricklayer both increased productivity and decreased fatigue.
