Universities planning the provision of space for their teaching requirements need to do so in a fashion that reduces capital and maintenance costs whilst still providing a high quality level of service. Space plans should aim to provide sufficient capacity without incurring excessive costs due to over-capacity. A simple measure used to estimate over-provision is utilisation. Essentially, the utilisation is the fraction of seats that are used in practice, or the ratio of demand to supply. However, studies usually find that utilisation is low, often only 20-40%, and this is suggestive of significant over-capacity.Our previous work has given methods to improve such space planning. They identify a critical level of utilisation as the highest level that can be achieved whilst still reliably satisfying the demand for places to allocate teaching events. In this paper, we extend such work to incorporate the notions of event-types and space-types. Teaching events have multiple 'event-types', such as lecture, tutorial or workshops, and there are generally corresponding space types. Matching the type of an event to a room of a corresponding space type is generally desirable. However, realistically, allocation happens in a mixed spacetype environment where teaching events of a given type are allocated to 1 rooms of another spacetype e.g. tutorials will borrow lecture theatres or workshop rooms.We propose a model and methodology to quantify the effects of spacetype mixing and establish methods to search for better spacetype profiles; where the term "space-type profile" refers to the relative numbers of each type of space. We give evidence that these methods have the potential to improve utilisation levels. Hence the contribution of this paper is twofold. Firstly, we present informative studies of the effects of space-type mixing on utilisation, and critical utilisations. Secondly, we present straightforward though novel methods to determine better space-type profiles, and give an example in which the resulting profiles are indeed significantly improved.
