This volume provides deployment information to allow civil engineers and logistics planners to plan for,
design, establish and sustain expeditionary airbases. When used in conjunction with Volume 5 of this
pamphlet series, theater and wing planners, advance echelon (ADVO N) team members and deploying
expeditionary engineers will have the basic tools re quired to identify and employ consistent standards
across the service components for infrastructure development, security and sustainment support for expe-
ditionary bases. This volume is not intended to provide a definitive design or layout applicable for every
type of deployment. It is intended to provide the planning criteria and background necessary to: (1) Deter-
mine what facilities are required to support Air Force, Joint and Coalition deployments supporting Aero-
space Expeditionary Force (AEF) mi ssions; (2) Identify forces, equipment and resources required to
provide adequate support fa cilities; (3) Understand the factors that affect transition between initial and
temporary standards; (4) Sustain facility operations through redeployment and reconstitution. Ensure that
all records created as a result of processes prescribed in this publication are maintained in accordance with
AFMAN 37-123, Management of Records, and disposed of in accor dance with the Air Force Records
