Sentence structure
Hi,
Particular attention should be given to function service entrance (out of guests’ sight) with large loading docks, a waste area and areas for weighing, washing of goods received and designed to minimise potential theft and spoilage of goods.
This sentence's structure got me confused.
I thought it means :
Particular attention should be given to function service entrance
the entrance is for large loading docks, a waste area , weighing, washing of goods received
and
the entrance is designed to minimise potential theft and spoilage of goods
but it does not make sence to me ?
Would please help me out ? give me a clear structure analysis
By the way,this is a hotel we are talking about. Why is "weighing" here for?
Thang you!

Hi, It's just a poorly-written sentence. I don't even know what a 'function service entrance' means. The normal expression is simply 'a service entrance'.
