2-7.2.1.9.2 Supply offices are typically located in the unit storage space, and
overlooking the staging area, to provide the supply officers with visual monitoring
capability of the stored materials. An exterior wall location, with a window overlooking
the service drive access to the staging area is generally preferred.
2-7.2.1.9.3 The staging area is also located in the unit storage space, with an
overhead door to an exterior driveway, to allow efficient marshaling of the equipment
and transfer onto transport. Some Tenants prefer a depressed loading dock
arrangement outside the staging area if site conditions allow.

2-7.2.1.9.4 The janitorial and facility
Janitorial and Toilets
maintenance spaces should be centrally
located to be convenient for maintenance of
the building, off a main corridor for easy
access. In larger buildings, it is desirable to
use the authorized space to create multiple
rooms throughout the building for maintenance
convenience. Janitorial spaces should be
located near toilets, where practical, for
plumbing efficiency.
2-7.2.1.9.5 A portion of the facility
maintenance space should be dedicated to
recycling, with an area to sort and store
recyclable materials awaiting pick up. This
area should be located near an exit for easy transfer, preferably an exit that is
accessible to vehicles.
2-7.2.1.9.6 Flammable storage and controlled waste storage are not typically
authorized for training center buildings collocated with an OMS. If authorized, these
spaces should be on an exterior wall with only an exterior access. They should also be
near a vehicle access for easy transfer to transport for delivery to and removal from the
facility.

Special Training Adjacencies
2-7.2.1.10.1 Medical section, physical exam, photo lab, soils testing lab, drafting room,
GCCS, and some less common special training spaces have no specific adjacencies.
They should be located near the unit that has the mission they support, and some
should be separated from noisier activities.
2-7.2.1.10.2 The weapons training space now utilizes an electronic simulator, the \
Laser Marksmanship Training System (LMTS) /2/, or Engagement Skills Trainer (EST)
and has no specific adjacencies. The electronic weapons used can be stored in the
secure storage room; they need not be in the arms vault. Weapons training could be
located near the classrooms for possible occasional use as a classroom.
