CRITERIA FOR COVERED STORAGE BUILDINGS
Section 1:
1.1
Scope. The criteria in this handbook covers the design requirements
for covered storage facilities in Category Codes 431-10 (Cold Storage), 441-10
(General Warehouse Navy), 441-20 (Controlled Humidity Warehouse), 441-30
(Flammable/Hazardous Storehouse), and 441-35 (Shed Storage), or the
combination of these Category Codes. These criteria address the factors which
affect the functional effectiveness of covered storage facilities. Included
in these factors are siting, system selection, facility layout, area, storage
height, and internal details. Since modern storage facilities are integrated
operations in which the structure and materials handling/ storage equipment
function as a system, coordination of equipment and structure requirements is
essential to proper operation of the system. The more common facility types
required for naval shore activities include:
a) Warehouses for hazardous materials, heavy materials, dehumidified
storage, aviation, medical supplies, boxing, crating, and cold storage.
b) Receiving, shipping, and issue buildings.
c) Preservation buildings.
Certain Marine Corps expeditionary units require permanent
warehousing facilities while in garrison. These Marine Corps facilities may
include offices, an armory (in accordance with Department of Defense Storage
and Materials Handling Manual, DOD 4145.19-R-1; and Physical Security and Loss
Prevention Manual, OPNAVINST 5530.14 Series), and a camp maintenance workroom.
Cancellation. This handbook on covered storage, MIL-HDBK-1032/2,
1.2
cancels and supersedes NAVFAC DM-32.02, Covered Storage, June 1982.
Related Criteria. The following criteria are related to the design
1.3
of covered storage buildings:
1.3.1
DOD Construction Criteria. Refer to, and comply with, all pertinent
criteria in Department of Defense Construction Criteria Manual, DOD 4270.1-M.
Requirements of Other Commands or Bureaus. Cold storage
1.3.2
installations must meet specifications of the management or system command
exercising control over them. General criteria of-the management or system
command are incorporated in the General Development Map of the activity.
Specific requirements must be coordinated with the cognizant management or
system command.
1.3.3
Facility Plates. As military handbooks and definitive drawings are
revised, definitive drawings are being restructured to be included in the
handbook which covers that type of building. These are included in the
various handbooks manuals and are titled Facility Plates. The facility plate
number is the category code number, and the sheets required to present the
information are numbered sequentially.
