MIL-HDBK-1027/4A
times the width of the screen image to be viewed. The angle of elevation
from the eye to the top edge of the screen or marker board should not exceed
30 degrees. Where room or seating depth is known, the screen width can be
determined by W=D/6 (preferred) or W=D/10 (minimum), where W=screen width and
D=depth of room or seating. Select particular projection equipment based on
aspect ratios compatible with height and width ratios for the screen. Refer
to Time-Saver Standards for Building Types, 2nd edition, McGraw-Hill Book
Company, for graphic data on projection angles and screen widths. Consult
Architectural Graphic Standards, John Wiley and Sons, for viewing zone limits
and projection medium aspect ratios.
e) Chalkboard and Marker Boards. Porcelain surface marker boards
are generally preferred since they are cleaner and can double as projection
screens; however, scrutinize their use in high security areas due to the
potential retention of images after erasure. Avoid chalkboards in computer
rooms. Airborne chalk dust can damage computer hardware.
2.3.3.4
Electronic Information Delivery Systems (EIDS). Accommodate
computerized EIDS and carrels where required. Carrels must be wider than
normal to accommodate the EIDS.
2.4
Supporting Functions and Utilities. The facility usually requires
administrative functions not directly related to the trainers, but necessary
for the smooth functioning of the training organization. These functions
usually include the Officer in Charge and NCO assistant, and the secretarial
staff.
2.5
Supporting Personnel. These personnel include the administrative
personnel, ISEO, training analysts, and others not absolutely essential to
the day to day operations, but necessary for training effectiveness.
Accommodate special contractor support spaces such as Contractor Total
Training Systems Support (CTTSS) or any level of private contractor support
where required.
2.6
Special Contractor Support Spaces. The operation and maintenance
of simulators is normally provided by contractors instead of Government
personnel. As such, the contractor has control of simulator spare parts and
maintenance areas and usually requires lockable spaces and an administrative
office space.
2.7
Environmental Requirements. For applicable discharge criteria,
consult with the NAVFAC Criteria Office and the cognizant EFD. Refer to
MIL-HDBK-1005/8, Domestic Wastewater Control. Design facilities to meet
environmental requirements at federal, state and local levels. Obtain a MSDS
(material safety data sheet) on every toxic or suspected toxic product to be
used at the facility and design in protective measures and ventilation
methods. Comply with all applicable pollution abatement criteria.
