Categorizing Stone Worksops

A repeatable mason's workshop-stone stockpile layout that makes it easy to "specify" what stones to use in stone masonry construction. A similar design/extension could be made for mechanic's workshops to have more control over what kind of stones to use when manufacturing mechanisms.

The workshop level consists of lockable rooms each with a mason's workshop. There are also reserved space to build corridors in all 4 directions.

4 lockable quadrants for storing 4 stone types. A special garbage zone is created over the stockpile tile directly below center of the mason's workshops. Regularly, when the stockpile gets filled up, dumping the stones on the non-garbage zone tiles will move the stones into the garbage tile on the center of each stockpile. Reclaiming the stones there will not cause it to be removed back to the empty stockpiles so one can essentially stack thousands of stones into one square. And since that square is closest to the workshops, the corresponding workshop should always take stones from the stockpile below.
