SPACE PROGRAM. Figure 6-1 identifies functional areas in dining
facilities and provides a target space allotment for each functional area. These
targets have been provided to serve as a budget to the designer and are not
intended to be restrictive. The critical area that must be rigorously adhered to is
the allowable gross area of the facility and storage requirements, i.e., provisions
and non-provisions. Actual gross allowable area for each project will be defined
in facility programming document DD-1391. Air Force will provide design
guidelines for their facilities.

Sustainability. The Army uses Sustainable Project Rating Tool
( SPiRiT). SPiRiT is a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) developed rating
tool that ensures Sustainable Design and Development is considered in Army
installation planning decisions and infrastructure projects to the fullest extent
possible, balanced with funding constraints and customer requirements. USACE
has an agreement with the U.S. Green Building Council to use Leadership in
Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) as part of SPiRiT. SPiRiT is very
similar to LEED in terms of categories and scoring potential. SPiRiT includes
three more categories that are more specific to the military community with a total
of 100 achievable points. For the Navy use NAVFAC Policy Statements 98-01,
98-02 & 98-03. In February 2003, NAVFAC is expected to publish NAVFACINST
9830.1 detailing NAVFAC's use of LEED. This will supersede and cancel
previous policy statements.
