1-1 OBJECT1VE OF MANUAL
CHAPTER 1
GENERAL
The objective of this manual is to supplement DOD 4270.1-M, Department of Defense "Construction Criteria Manual." DOD 4270.1-M is further supplemented by Army Regulations, Technical Manuals in the TM 5-800 series, and Corps of Engineers Guide Specifications for Military Construction. It is emphasized that DOD 4270.1-M is the primary source to which design personnel should refer for construction criteria. Wherever Army or agency publications containing policies or procedures relating to construction conflict with DOD 4270.1-M, the policies and proc12dures in DOD 4270.l=M shall govern. Howeverg departmental or agency criteria that impose further r~strictions not inconsistent with DOD criteria shall not be considered conflicts.
1-2 ORGANIZATION OF MANUAL
The arrangement and numbering of this manual are patterned after DOD 4270.1-M. In general, corresponding numbered divisions (chapters and paragraphs) of the DOD and the Army manuals relate to identical subjects. Additional paragraphs and subparagraphs are added wherever necessary to cover subjects not treated in the DOD manual. Such added paragraphs and subparagraphs include a 50-series numeral within their number structure. Omission in this manual of a numbered division denotes that there are no supplementary Army requirements in this manualg although such require~nts may appear in other Army publications.
1-3.5 APPENDICES
Publications that are directly related to the criteria in whether or not referred to directly, are listed in Appendix 1. 4270.1-M, howeverp copies of the publications are not included pendix.

as defined in AR 415-10, will or will not be included as part of the construction for the facilityt depending upon the circumstances as they relate to the facilityo Portable equipment, as defined in AR 415-10, will ordinarily not be included as part of the construction for the facility. Government-furnished equipment will be used only where (a) complex, specially designed equipment is required, (b) significant economies can be realized without jeopardizing the construction cost or the completion schedule, (c) surplus equipment is available and can be used effectively in lieu of procuring new equipment, or (d) advance procurement is essential i~ order to meet critical time schedules.
1=4.2.51 Construction Other Than Permanent
1~4.2 .51A Semipermanento Design criteria will be :in general conformity with criteria for permanent construction 0 except as modified herein or in DOD 4270.1-M. The choice between masonry and wood-frame construction will be based on cost differential in the localityp the &iticipated lifap and the functional use, Extraneoii8 features such as o~erhangs 0 exterioz screening wallsp and nonfunctional ornamentation ~ill be a-woided o
1-4.2o5lb Temporaryo Modified conventional framing will be considered as a contractor's option for conventional wood framing when competitive in cost and suitable for the climate. The fxames consist of dimension lumber with plywood crown and haunch gussets. Structural strength depends upon the diaphragm action of plywood roof sheathing and plywood wall siding. Design data may be obtained from the appr.opriate plywood association. Metal prefabricated buildings will be considered where fund limitations pennitc Pressure- preservative-treated pole-type construction will be considered for foundation and framing system of warehouses and other indust~ial=type use. Roof framing systems will not be preservative treatedo

BUILDINGS AND FACILITIES CRITERIA
GENERAL
3-1.51 SPACE ALLOWANCES
3-1.51.1 General
The criteria herein and in DOD 4270.1-M govern the authorization of facilities, except aviation (see TM 5-803-4), required to accomplish the peacetime mission at all Army installations other than industrial, and the space allowances to be provided. These criteria apply to Army installations in the United States, oversea commands, and in occupied territory and oversea base rights areas unless specified to the contrary; and are intended to provide guidance in the development of installation master plans called for by AR 210-20 or 415-36, as applicable, and in the preparation of Army construction programs as called for by AR 415-15.
3-1.51.2 Facilities
The type, size, and number of facilities described herein are those normally required for the housing and maintenance of troops and activities at division-type installations. By adjustment, they will also be adapted for use at other types of installations, such as Army training centers, schools, hospitals, depots, and arsenals. Except where specified as minimums, the numbers and/or capacities listed are maximums which will not be exceeded unless specially justified. It is not the intent that planning boards will list each facility contained herein as a requirement in the tabulation of existing and required facilities (see AR 210~20), unless there is a valid need for the item to satisfy the planned installation mission. Other requirements not covered will be determined on the basis of the particular needs of each installation, and justified as exceptions to space allowances. Where installation strengths exceed those listed in the tables hereinafter, the increased space allowances required will be based upon a prorated extension of the established limitations, except for those facilities for which the tables establish ultimate maximum allowances, or prescribe incremental space increases for installation capacities above those included in the tables. These criteria do not constitute authority for the development of drawings for any facility, other than preliminary sketches required for planning purposes.
3-1.51.3 Application
The allowances listed herein are applicable to both master planning and construction programing for facilities . For master planning purposes the allowances are to be applied to 100 percent of the long-range strengths (scheduled military strengths) of installations as listed in the current "Stationing Plan for Permanent Construction." For fiscal year construction programing, the allowances listed herein are to be applied as directed in AR 415-15 .

(d) Individual or private offices, and semiprivate offices, which, due to operational needs, require space in excess of allowances to adequately perform assigned missions and duties may exceed the criteria on an individual office basis by not more than 15 percent; such increases will not be added to the total authorized allowances but will be made by adjustment within the total area authorized in this section.
In all cases, justification for an administration project will include the total number of personnel to be assigned office space and documentation of personnel justification. Total office space requirements for organizational elements shown on U.S. Army Garrison Organization Chart of DA Pam 20-551, Staffing Guide for U.S. Army Garrisons, will conform to Tables of Distribution and Allowance (CSGPA 382-Rl).
3-2.1.50 Post Headquarters Building
Administrative activities and other related facilities may be consolidated into one headquarters building. At division-type installations, depending on requirements and physical layout of facilities, the division headquarters may be housed together with the post headquarters building. Wherever conditions permit and economies can be effected thereby, such consolidations will be effected. If any post service administrative activities are housed in the post headquarters buildings, the allowances for post headquarters will be increased accordingly .
3-2.1.51 Division Headquarters Building
Headquarters facilities of an appropriate size will be authorized each di vision-tYPe organization.
