Abstract
Logistics factors determine types of Logistics Centers and their architectural solutions. Globalisation, rapid growth of trade and ecology change modern Logistics Centers, complicating their structure, requirements, interactions with big cities, and diversifying their functions. Such logistics factors as means of transport, kinds of goods, roadways can’t be ignored in conditions of modern overloaded and polluted big cities
Highlights
One of the primary tasks of the Transport Strategy of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation is stated in the following way: development of large transport hubs, logistics and distribution centers at the interface between different means of transport
In the 80s retail shops started to centralize their supplies with the help of new distribution centers, that were under those retail shops’own control
Under the influence of this tendency the so-called order fulfillment centers (OFC) appeared: stores where only devices for electronic access to catalogue is present and an area of measuring out. For such OFCs offices are rented, but those offices are poorly accommodated for the given logistics tasks
Summary
One of the primary tasks of the Transport Strategy of the Ministry of Transport of the Russian Federation is stated in the following way: development of large transport hubs, logistics and distribution centers at the interface between different means of transport. Innovational concepts and modernization are critical to the transportation system as a whole as well as particular transport objects [1].Global trade growth, intensive development of internet-based technology and technical devices modify the marketplace and the sphere of transport, precisely distribution sector. Nowadays business is the most sensible to changes: it solves problems on site, locally, taking into account only its own interests and ignoring interests of social and urban environment development. Revision of the existing system is needed with due regard to its historic development and current tendencies for traffic adaptation and urban environment improvement
