FOREWORD
This military handbook has been developed from an evaluation of facilities
in the shore establishment, from surveys of the availability of new materials
and construction methods, and from selection of the best design practices of
the Naval Facilities Engineering Command (NAVFACENGCOM), other Government
agencies, and the private sector. It uses, to the maximum extent feasible,
national professional society, association, and institute standards.
Deviations from this criteria, in the planning, engineering, design, and
construction of Naval shore facilities, cannot be made without prior approval
of NAVFACENGCOM HQ Code 04.
Design cannot remain static any more than can the functions it serves or
the technologies it uses. Accordingly, recommendations for improvement are
encouraged and should be furnished to Naval Facilities Engineering Command
Headquarters (Code 04).
This handbook shall not be used as a reference document for procurement.
Do not reference it in military or federal specifications or other procurement
documents.
