It addresses airfields, facilities, utilities, base defense, and other key infrastructure and services at remote, austere, or bare base locations. It previews techniques and procedures using civil engineer distinctive skills and capabilities-based equipment configurations and does not replace technical orders, manuals, or mandatory procedures or instructions.
Applies to: This publication applies to the Regular Air Force, the Air Force Reserve, and the Air National Guard.
Personnel should adhere to applicable technical, safety, and policy requirements when performing tasks addressed in this publication.
The data presented here addresses civil engineer tasks associated with development of airfields, facilities, utilities, base defense, and other key infrastructure and services at remote, austere, or bare base locations.
For this document, “bare base” means “an installation having minimum essential facilities to house, sustain, and support operations to include, if required, a stabilized runway, taxiways, and aircraft parking areas.
A bare base should also have a source of water that can be made potable.
Typically, Air Force beddowns at contingency locations rely on the use of Basic Expeditionary Airfield Resources (BEAR), or other mobile assets.
