INDEXES OF DESIGN DRAWINGS FOR MILITARY CONSTRUCTION (IDDMC)
1. Purpose. This provides indexes of design drawings available from U.S.
Army Engineering and Support Center, Huntsville (CEHNC), and the CD-ROM
Construction Criteria Base (CCB) System for the planning and design of Army
military construction projects.
2.
Availability of Designs from CEHNC.
a. Army Elements. Army elements having responsibility for the planning,
design, or review of construction projects may obtain reproductions of design
drawings at no cost in accordance with the procurement procedures given in
paragraph 7.
b. Other Federal Agencies. Any Federal agency may obtain reproductions
of design drawings at no cost on a limited basis in accordance with the
procurement procedures given in paragraph 7.
c. State, Local Agencies and Private Concerns. The procurement
procedures are given in paragraph 7 at cost as calculated in accordance with
paragraph 9. Entities performing contractual services for the USACE
Activities should request reproductions of design drawings through their
contracting offices.
d. Some of design drawings are available in the CCB System through
Intergraph, AutoCADD, and DXF. Such design drawings are identified in the
remarks column of indexes.
3.
Organization of Indexes.
a. Mandatory Designs. Index A provides an index of Department of Army
Standard Designs by category code. These designs have been developed and
approved under the Department of the Army Facilities Standardization Program
for mandatory use.
b. Current Designs. In addition to the mandatory designs of Index A,
USACE approved design drawings are listed as current designs in Index B.
Current design drawings are listed by category code.
c. Limited Reference Designs. Index C provides an index of limited
reference design drawings by category code. Designs listed in this index are
previously used designs that have some reference value. This index is
available upon request from CEHNC. (See paragraph 7, below.)

d. Indexes D, E, and F. These indexes provide mobilization design
drawings (M-drawings) by alphabetical order, category code, and configuration
data. Architectural and Engineering Instructions, Design Criteria, dated 3
July 1994, Appendix M contains criteria for mobilization designs. Indexes D,
E, and F are available at CEHNC. (See paragraph 7, below.)
4. Category Codes. The Category Codes given in AR 415-28 are provided below

Prefixes used in the indexes indicate the types of design
a. "STD" indicates standard design drawings that are sufficient in
detail to serve as construction drawings after site modifications. These
standard design drawings generally provide for site adaptation in widely
separated geographical areas, including design data for different climatic
and seismic conditions. Often alternate wall sections, details and building
elevations are included to illustrate the variations for different
conditions.
b. "DEF" indicates definitive design drawings that show functional
layouts, space allocations, and special requirements. Definitive design
drawings usually recommend basic building systems, materials and construction
details, structural-mechanical-electrical systems, and architectural
treatments. Definitive design drawings typically include floor plans,
elevations, a section, gross and net area tabulations, and mechanical and
electrical load data.
c. "DG" indicates design guides that contains a combination of written
and graphic material for a facility type. The material explains the facility
functions and shows space allocations, special requirements, and may be
accompanied by several example designs.
d. "SK" indicates sketch design drawings. These drawings are usually
single-line drawings describing the functional layout, space allocations, and
basic features of a facility. Sketch design drawings typically include
plans, elevations, sections and area tabulations.

e. "AW" and "AD" indicate Air Force design drawings that are suitable
for Army use.
6. Design Proponents. Proponents of designs are listed as "CEMP-" in the
