First of all we have to find out the consumption of body. The equation is
given below:
a) {(Thigh width + Hem width)/2} + 1” = X
So how many parts we can allocate in one laid fabric is
= Fabric width/X = Z
b) {(Length + (belt width*2) + hem allowance + west allowance}/36
= Y
Body consumption = (Y/Z)*4*12
Small parts =1) (Fabric width/Back pocket width) + Allowance = E
2) (Back pocket length + allowance)/36 = F
Consumption = (F/E)* pocket quantity*12
NB: If there is thigh pocket then it will be include with the consumption.
Identify the main aspects in pattern cutting
Sample room’s main aspects fulfill the buyer’s requirements. It works between buyers and factory manager that means production level. To cut the pattern is being doing to the buyers requirements. Any merchandiser takes any sample and measurement tithe gives it to the sample room incharge.then sample room incharge select the fabrics according to the buyer’s requirement. Then he gives it to the pattern master. Pattern master cut the pattern. Assistant cut the fabrics. After cutting the fabrics, it gives to the sewing and finishing. At last all are completed, and then sample incharge cheek it properly and get it to show the buyers.Infact, the main aspects in pattern cutting is production. Various samples are cut for different reasons. for this, various patterns are cut for different type:
Development sample: Development sample is the first layer of the sample section. It means when buyers are gives order, then they gives some design catalog to the merchandiser and sample room incharge.Depend on the catalog sample room incharge make a one piece sample to show the buyers. this is called development sample.
Sales sample: After showed the development sample, buyers want to some sample for marketing. They want to see that how feel the customer about this style. So buyers wants some sample for their customer which known as sales sample.
Size set sample: Size set sample is the next step of sales sample .After some days, get the order, buyers want to see all size of product. This is known as size set sample.
P.P Sample:Sample which make before the production is call ed p.p sample.
Shipment sample:Sample which delivery at last with buyers requirements is called shipment sample:
Familirize with garment pattern and to understand the use of grain lines, notchs:
A pattern master cut the garments pattern simply, it has 11-15parts. Garments, notches, seam, allowance, bias the rules of pattern cutting.
Grain line:Grain liners means axis, it denoted the direction of fabrics cutting. Sometimes any fabrics cut straightly or curve then grain lines directed it. It making on a pattern piece used for alignment with wrap yarn or wale lines piece goods and positioning pattern in marker.
Seam allowance
Seam allowance is measured fore the cut edge of fabrics to the main line of stitches. This is the amount of fabrics that extended beyond the actual seam line. With of a seam allowance is offend a factor is jading garment quality.
Tools and equipment used in sample room
Sample room use tools and equipment mainly making for pattern. The equipments are-
Measurement scale
Stapler
Stapler pin remover
Normal scale
Punch machine
Pattern board
Pen
Pencil cutter
Pencil
Tailors chalk
Calculator
Scissors
Scoter machine

Tag gang
Learn how to make a basic pattern of T-shirt:
Basic pattern the parts of T-shirt are-
1 Form part
2 Back parts
3Sleeve length
4 Neck rib.
Observe how sample room coordinates with the other section
In many ways sample room coordinates with other sections. Main duty of sample room is full fill the buyer’s requirements. At first a merchandiser brings offer from the buyers. The pattern master makes a pattern of that style, and then gives to the sample man. The sample man makes offer sample and then send to the buyer .If it satisfies the buyer then the order the counter sample in this way, they made development sample, sales sample, fashion show sample size sample etc.
To make the procedure sample room coordinates the other section. Firstly they coordinates to merchandiser, then they make sample .After making sample, when buyers are accept this, then sample room coordinates to the cutting,sewing,and finishing.
In this w ay sample room coordinates with other sections.
Study the responsibility of sample room incharge:
One senior pattern master is the incharge.He has to observe the whole sample room.The supervisor is also incharge here.In sample room 10-12 peoples are worked under an incharge. Incharge watches all people in sample room are do his duty properly. He gives up their fault. Before send the sample in being house he takes the measurement is plus or minus he noted in measurement tithe always sincere to his work .he come office at just time and go on latar.He always do his duty in myself.
Store room
Study the main operation involved in the section:
Sore room is a room where the all materials of product are stocked. The main operation involved in the section is to put into the amount of receiving and sending documents, of all materials of production. when merchandiser gets order of all things of production, then merchandiser and store room incharge look after the order. When all the order are take to delivery, the all delivery Chelan are put into a file in a store room incharge.Then any materials are need to production,thenstore room incharge supply all things. Store room incharge write down the all documents when anyone take any things from him.Infact, the main operation of store room is the security and proper distribution room of the production things.
Study the role play by the store keeper:
I observed the responsibility of the storekeeper. He maintains a well-organized store with clearly identified areas. He is an important character of a garments factory. he ensures that fabrics and accessories are properly store to prevent damage. Any section of production has absence any things; store keeper may delivery those things rapidly. For production, any things are come in slowly, store keeper search the reasons of slow and as soon as he delivery this things. He put the documents of delivery of all section separately and he distributed all things in a proper range. He come to the office at a just time and leave at latar.when he can not present in a store room, he closed the room for security. A store keeper is always busy to delivery the production things. He always sincere to his work. He do his duty very sincere and carefully. Actually, store keeper is a good person in garments.
#Invoices:
After booking the order of productions things, when the……………..delivery the things then customer gives a reset according to the goods quantity, price etc. This reset is called invoice .Again when the shipment is delivery to the Byers, then ………………….gives a reset according to the buyers requirements, where the products quantity, price hectare input. This is also a one kind of invoice.Infact that is called invoice, where the products quantity, price date hectare input.
#Goods receiving note:
Goods receiving note means, where the amount of all goods are input.
Types of fabrics:Various types of fabrics are-
Rib
Fleace (Micro polar)
Single jersey
Lycra single jersey

The Finishing is the last stage of garment production where garment gets its final look. In this department each garment undergoes different finishing processes. It undergoes for quality checks which sets the garment free from defects. Buyer specifications and instructions are strictly maintained. Following are the different finishing processes-
Instrument Flow Chart
Trimming
Trimming is an important step in finishing, it involves cutting of unwanted threads and the cutting of extra loop lengths. Trimming of threads is done with the cutter, which is very user friendly. Tailor scissors are used for cutting extra loop length. Trimming process is carried out on wooden tables covered with the cloth of a color in contrast to the fabric color of the garment. By the end of the this section the garment is free from major irregularities like the protruding and left-over threads. In Auto Garments Ltd, the trimming section is at the end of the sewing line.
2. Quality Inspection
Trimmed garment pieces undergo quality inspection. Here, operator checks every garment piece and mark the defect on the garment with a sticker. This step is very important. Garments with stitching defects are sorted out and sent to ware house. Other small defects such as ripping of seam, small alterations etc. are marked for the alteration and after being referred to the quality control managers are sent back to their respective defect occurrence operation area.
As the trimming table, the quality checking is also done in the sewing line and marks the end of the processes of the sewing room.
The first 100 piece of a new style are checked by the quality assurance team and the work is carried on once they have an affirmation from the quality assurance department.
FINISHING DEPATMENT
The finishing department imparts the final touch to the garments and impart a soothing effect and improves the esthetics of the garment which loses it’s gloss because of so many operations especially in the cutting and the sewing dep. The finishing department works in the following sequence
01.Thread Sucking
The thread sucking is done to remove the threads, which stick on the garment after the thread trimming. The thread trimming results in the deposition of lose threads all over the garment, though it is taken care of at the thread trimming itself by beating the garment with the cello-tape mounted baton but to make the garment 100% stray thread free this process is n. The operator holds the garment and takes it in a suction chamber and due to heavy suction; the garment releases all the threads, which are on the surface. The garments are now bundled in a set of 10 pieces to provide a smooth flow over the floor.
2. Ironing
This is the most traditional form of providing creases and removing the unwanted ones from the garment. It becomes important when the garment needs to be packed because if the garment is ironed then it occupies less space and thus it becomes easy for the operator to pack the garment as well it makes the garment more presentable.
The garments are now ironed to give them a proper form and shaped. Wrinkles are formed on the garment because of many reasons, which mainly include the handling in the sewing room and the wrinkles present in the fabric itself and at the time of storing the fabric. The steam iron is used for cotton fabric but for the synthetic fabrics no steam is used. It is after this stage that the garments give a pleasant and a finished look and after this, the packaging processes start.
3. Buttoning and Neck Pressing
All the buttons of the shirt are closed. This step is immediately after the ironing and an operator stands on one side of the iron table for this purpose. In most of the cases, all the buttons are closed or in some cases there might be some other requirement of the buyer.
4. Inspecting
The buttoned garments are now inspected for the final look and it is checked if the piece is looking aesthetically all right or not. This inspection is 100% and all the pieces undergo this stage.
5.Collar Inserting/Button fly fittinAt this stage, the cardboard collar piece is inserted inside the collar to give it a rigid look and help it provide a better shelf look. The button fly is also inserted in the collar, to give a graceful look at the front end of the collar and also to keep the collar from falling after the packaging.
6. Folding
The garment is folded with the help of the buyer template based on the folding size required.
7. Poly-packing
In packing, the packaging material used is based on the request of the buyers, which in case of shirts is generally a simple poly bag. The carton plies are also mentioned by the buyer. Packing may require more than one step based on the buyer requirements of placing tags and labels. The tags are put with the help of tag-guns.
8. Assorting
The garments after being packed in the poly pack are sent for assortment and to be packed in the cartons. Each piece is picked, and put into the respective carton. This packing in the carton can be done in either of the 2 ways. Ratio packing – In this technique the garments are packed according to the ration of the sizes to be put in which is specified in the list given by the buyer. This is generally followed in the packing of shirts. Solid Packing – In this the garments are packed one shade and one size in one carton, this is easier and requires less time.
FINISHED GOODS STOCKING
After all these processes, the garment is ready to be dispatched, but this cannot be done before the dispatch date and the cartons have to be stocked somewhere. The finishing room on the 2nd floor itself has a lot of stocking space which is called the assortment area as the assortment is also done in this area only. The main finished goods stocking area is on the 1st floor above the central fabric store. From here, the goods are dispatched, once the merchandising departments orders to take the consignment for the port.

Correspondence from the Accord on Fire and Building Safety
Dear Factory Owner/Representative
The Accord is a legally binding agreement between international and national trade unions and international brands and retailers (Companies). Over 140 international brands and retailers have now signed the Accord. 4 international labour NGOs are witnesses to the agreement. The International Labour Organisation (ILO) acts as the independent chair.
The aim of the Accord is the implementation of a programme for reasonable health and safety measures to ensure a safe and sustainable Bangladeshi Ready Made Garment industry for a period of five years. Full details of the Accord are available in English
The Accord on Fire and Building Safety in Bangladesh (Accord) shall be inspecting all factories producing for signatory brands for fire, electrical and structural safety. These 3 separate initial inspections will be commencing in early February 2014. The Accord is committed to doing our utmost to schedule the fire and electrical safety inspections for the same day and, to the extent possible, the structural. Each inspection requires approximately one day to complete.
The Accord is writing today in the effort to help you prepare for the inspections, to ensure they are conducted efficiently, and in the effort to minimize any disruption to the normal production at your factory. You will also be receiving a correspondence directly from the Accord signatory brands produced at your factory related to the accord bangladesh inspections and remediation plans processes.
In these regards please consider the following:
The Accord inspection team will provide written, advance notice of the date(s) of the 3 inspections (fire, safety, structural). Such letter will be sent to you and to each of the brands produced at the factory.

These documents include: the original building plan (architect’s drawings/blueprints) for the factory and same for any additions to the building subsequent to the original construction.
A management and worker representative should accompany the inspection teams to observe the inspections.
Within two weeks of the completion of all 3 initial inspections, you will receive the reports and remediation requirements identified through the initial inspections. You will be offered one week to provide comments on the reports to the Chief Safety Engineer (CSI). The CSI will then finalize the reports and necessary remediations. The final report and remediations plan will be concluded in consult with you as the owner, the signatory brands produced at your factory, and the Accord engineering team.
As the factory owner and during the course of finalization of the reports and remediations plan described above, you must confirm that you understand the reports and will fully execute, within the provided timelines, all of the identified necessary remediations from the inspection reports. Should you face difficulty regarding the resources to complete these required remediations, please be informed that you should discuss options for identifying sources for the required resources with the Accord signatory brands producing at your factory. This does not mean the brands will directly provide you the needed resources but they are obligated to work with you to find the resources. Please note that the reports and necessary remediations will be simultaneously provided to the factory owner, each brand produced at the factory, and the worker representatives.
Please be aware that within 6 weeks of the initial reports, the results of the inspection reports and necessary remediations will be published on the Accord website.
