Section 2: PLANNING
2.1 General. The Secretary of Defense has directed the implementation of a new standard size for bachelor housing apartment modules. A copy of the Secretary of Defense Memorandum dated 6 November 1995 is included in this handbook. The new
(1+1) apartment module size will be used for all Navy bachelor housing except for authorized exceptions and recruit barracks. Use of the 1983 (2+2) apartment module size for new construction requires Secretary of the Navy approval. The Marines will use the (2+0) apartment module size for new construction.
2.2 Facility Functions. Address the following basic functional activities in bachelor housing. These three basic functional areas are interactive, and designers must fully understand these relationships, and take a holistic approach to creating a fully integrated facility. The three basic functional categories are:
a) Residential apartment (the standard module): bedroom/living room, personal hygiene, work/study desk area in the bedroom, personal storage closet, indoor relaxation.
b) Recreation and community: outdoor sports, outdoor relaxation areas (these include individual and group activities), pre-installed/built-in phone and cable television outlets in each room.
c) Service (core): Laundry facilities, bulk storage, utility space, mail service area, circulation space, multipurpose space, game room, vending area, guest toilets, supply storage room, administration area.
2.3 Planning Considerations. Consider the following items when planning the facility space program:
a) The current and projected resident population served by the proposed facility.
b) The potential for retention and renovation of existing facilities.
c) The need for additions and complete new construction projects.
d) Existing community facilities on base and their adequacies relative to current and future needs.
