MIL-HDBK-1027/4A
as well as inventory control and repair.
Audiovisual or other equipment
repair may be required.
In addition to books, the learning center may contain records,
tapes, closed circuit TV facilities, film, cameras, Video Cassette Recorders
(VCRs) and projection equipment. Larger centers may need separate stack and
reading areas. Provide storage for Navy publications and rate-training
manuals. Accommodate a classified file safe where required by the user.
Acoustic controlling materials are necessary to ensure a quiet environment.
Provide for computerized Electronic Information Delivery System
(EIDS) and carrels if required by the user. Carrels where needed must be
sized to accommodate the EIDS. The EIDS may require a separate room for the
host computer depending on the system and may be restricted to authorized
personnel only.
Lobby. Locate for direct visual supervision of central control.
Provide wall area for a bulletin board and building directory. Accommodate
any memorabilia provided by the user. Include a recessed scuff area at the
entry point for control of debris from foot traffic. A vestibule is
recommended for energy conservation.
Locker Room. Provide permanent built-in curb mounted lockers
except where future flexibility is required. Provide adequate lockers and
clothes hooks for trainee occupancy load and adequate garment changing area
with wall mounted number 8 finish stainless steel mirror. Minimize blind
spots and/or visual obstructions except as required for privacy.
Lounge. Provide kitchen alcove, visually hidden from lounge with
dishwasher, microwave oven, and small upright refrigerator. The seating area
can double as conference and as an instructor work area if arranged so that
kitchen users do not have to intrude.
Mail Room. Locate the mail room off the corridor and contiguous to
the administrative area for use by the staff. Provide individual mailboxes
with two sided access. Design area to prevent queues of personnel from
obstructing corridor passage.
Maintenance Shop. Minor miscellaneous repair of the trainer
components is undertaken here by the device contractor. Base size on the
number of simulators to be housed within the facility and the number of
proposed maintenance/support personnel. Provide space for the storage and
maintenance of simulator system technical documentation and an area where the
documentation can be laid out and used for maintenance procedures.
Maintenance Storage. Size this space to support the number of
simulators in the facility. This is primarily a storage space for electronic
and mechanical equipment, fixtures, and publications. To keep the trainer
functional for use, it is necessary to procure spare parts, technical
documentation (including drawings), tools and test equipment. These items
require storage and, in general, the larger the trainer the more storage will
be required.
Locking hardware is required. Include an "On Site Spares" area
which can be secured separately and can accommodate anticipated quantities.
