This study examines the robust facility layout problem (RFLP) while taking into account unpredictable health and environmental safety standards. This problem's major goal is to arrange the departments in various departments of a hall, allot each department the appropriate amount of space, and identify the kind of amenities and equipment needed for each chosen sector. To accomplish the aforementioned objective, five criteria were taken into account: the total cost of department transfer and selection; access to more facilities and equipment; access to firefighting equipment; access to favorable climatic conditions; and the separation of noisy departments from one another. The fuzzy programming approach is utilized in this research to regulate the uncertainty parameters due to the uncertainty of the transfer cost and transfer time parameters. Additionally, by supplying an appropriate chromosome, the precise Epsilon constraint approach, NSGA II, and MOPSO have been employed to tackle the issue. The computational sizes of larger-sized sample problems solved demonstrate the strong performance of the NSGA II in quickly finding effective solutions.
