A room data sheet (RDS) is a document that outlines the key requirements for each space in a building project.
RDS are most commonly used in complex, highly regulated projects such as healthcare, education, laboratories, justice and correctional facilities, defence, transport, hospitality, and specialised commercial or residential facilities where space functionality and compliance are critical. It describes how the space will be used, its size, its relationship to other rooms and its specific needs.
