The objective of this subcourse is to provide you with the fundamentals of planning and
supervising the construction of frame structures which comprise the basic type of building in a theater of
operations. It will also orient you in the fundamentals of construction print reading. You will learn about
building layout procedures; framing details of substructures, superstructures, and roofs; kinds and
properties of timber; and planning and estimating material and labor requirements for frame construction.
Emphasis is on simplified theater-of-operations construction. However, some details of conventional
construction are also included for use as a general guide and for use in rehabilitation and repair of existing

SOILS AND GEOLOGY PROCEDURES FOR FOUNDATION
DESIGN OF BUILDINGS AND OTHER STRUCTURES
This manual presents guidance for selecting and designing foundations and associated
features for buildings, retaining structures, and machinery. Foundations for hydraulic structures are not
included. Foundation design differs considerably from design of other elements of a structure because of
the interaction between the structure and the supporting medium (soil and/or rock).

LANDSCAPE DESIGN AND PLANTING CRITERIA
This manual provides planting design guidelines for preserving and improving the quality of
the visual environment on military installations; prescribes standard practices and techniques for planting
and initial care of plant materials; and includes guidance for the selection and establishment of turf.
The criteria and guidelines contained in this manual apply to Army and Air Force installations in the
continental United States. Planting design guidance in this manual is generally applicable for all
installations. However, each installation should develop planting plans tailored to the specific landscape
project. In addition to general design guidance, this manual describes planting techniques and methods for
the successful establishment of plants. Factors which are critical in the selection of turfgrass are discussed;
these include site evaluation, proposed use of the site and required maintenance.
