MIL-HDBK-1024/1
Section 2:
GENERAL DESIGN CRITERIA
2.1
Facility Planning. Plan for the design and construction of
facilities discussed herein in accordance with NAVFAC P-80, Facility Planning
Criteria for Navy and Marine Corps Shore Installations, MIL-HDBK-1190,
Facility Planning and Design Guide, and NAVFAC Instruction 11010.44, Shore
Facilities Planning Manual.
2.2
Site Considerations
2.2.1
Site Suitability. Basic considerations for site selection include
terrain characteristics and meteorological conditions. Locate facilities
requiring technical adequacy for radiation, reception, visibility, etc.,
following the requirements established by the governing agency or command
responsible for the project. Ensure site selection considerations are fully
understood and incorporated into the design. Site considerations for
electronic facilities are contained in MIL-HDBK-1012/1, Electronic Facilities
Engineering.
2.2.2
Separation of Structures. Comply with MIL-HDBK-1008, Fire
Protection for Facilities Engineering, Design, and Construction for separation
of structures.
2.2.3
Access and Parking. Provide paved access drives and parking lots
for attended facilities in accordance with NAVFAC DM-5.04, Pavements. Access
drives and parking facilities for unattended facilities may be gravel or
crushed shell except where access to the facility is from runways and
taxiways. In these cases, pave a sufficient portion of the access drives and
parking lots to avoid the scattering of gravel onto the operational surfaces.
At facilities adjacent to runways and taxiways, provide parking space off the
operational surface for a maintenance vehicle. Locate the parking space to
avoid interference with the operation of any facilities in the area. Ensure
roadway and vehicle parking surfaces within the airfield operations area are
flush with the surrounding ground surface.
Parking. The number of parking stalls required at each facility
2.2.3.1
varies dependent upon the function, location, and size of the user command.
Consider double work shifts and shift changes when determining the required
number of parking stalls. Criteria for establishing the required number of
parking stalls based on the type of facility and size of the work force are
provided in MIL-HDBK-1190. Provide geometric layout and design for parking
lots and stalls in accordance with Army TM 5-822-2/Air Force Manual 88-7,
Chapter 5, General Provisions and Geometric Design for Roads, Streets, Walks,
and Open Storage Areas, and NAVFAC Definitive Drawing No. 1404837, Parking
Area Criteria for Vehicles. In addition to requirements established in these
reference documents, conform to the following restrictions:
a) Parking of privately owned vehicles (POV's) within level three
and level two restricted areas is prohibited.
