ATTACHMENT G.6– Design Criteria

Page | 1

The following is a list of documents intended to create a uniform approach to the design execution and maintenance of Texas Military Forces facilities. The following list is not all-inclusive. The list contains specific facility type information, general requirements, and best practices. The designer, engineer, and consultants must comply with elements required by law and meet the intent of the applicable guidelines as closely as possible within budget constraints.

Where the designer, engineer, or consultant is unclear about the application or purpose of the

Army regulations, they should submit a request(s) for interpretation in writing to the CFMO project ODR (Owner’s Designated Representative) for interpretation by the CFMO Design

Branch.
