C/M (Criteria and Methods) Program (FY 74-FY TQ). Volume 2. User's Guide.

Abstract

This report consists of two volumes concerning the Criteria and Methods (C&M) Program. Volume I is a summary report which discusses how the Program began, its objectives and goals, the structure and conduct of the program, and its accomplishments. Volume II is a user's guide for the Program archives. In addition to explaining how to locate a document in the files, the guide provides a complete listing of the contents of the file. The Criteria and Methods Program was initiated in FY 74 to package the existing and evolving knowledge of ocean facilities engineering into manuals and handbooks to be used by ocean facilities engineers. The Program was to compare, evaluate, and document standard engineering criteria and methods based upon existing practices in specific support of the Naval Facilities Engineering Command's (NAVFAC) mission to design, construct and maintain fixed ocean facilities. The goal was to minimize unnecessary variance and overdesign, therefore maximizing reliability, safety and economy in meeting ocean engineering and construction requirements.
