Selection and Design Criteria for the Army Facilities Components System.

Abstract

The report presents a proposed procedure for the selection and design of components for the Army Facilities Component System (AFCS). It examines the present AFCS planning process and discusses methods for incorporating state of the art changes in construction techniques, materials, and planning. Examples using the present and proposed procedures are outlined and facilities designs, including cost and effort comparisons between the systems, are analyzed. Descriptions of the data base and the management information system for the proposed procedure are provided. Conclusions derived and advantages recognized from the proposed procedure are discussed.
