2-3.2
Related Facilities.
Consider locating the facility near other high-visibility areas and related functions such
as outdoor running tracks, sports fields, open park space, swimming pools, outdoor
recreation centers, military recreation centers, etc.
2-3.3
Cost.
These facilities should be designed with the objective of achieving the lowest life cycle
cost over a 30-year period. To do so, the project's design program must adequately
define the scope and performance requirements and match those needs against a
budget. Conversely, the budget must adequately support an appropriate and high-
quality program and the performance requirements outlined and identified in this UFC.
Also consider possible future additions when selecting the site to ensure cost-effective
expansion possibilities.

LAYOUT AND ADJACENCIES.
The appropriate layout and adjacencies are illustrated in Figures 2.1 through 2.3.
These diagrams are not intended to convey a building shape. Required adjacencies
may be accommodated vertically.
These three figures all illustrate a facility with the gymnasium near the front entrance.
This configuration allows the gymnasium to be used for events while the rest of the
facility is closed off. However, also consider the massing of the facility when
determining the location of the gymnasium.
2-4.1
Basic Facility.
The diagram in Figure 2-1 indicates acceptable relative adjacencies of the major
functional spaces for a basic facility.
