Appendix D: Suggested Infrastructure Classification Identifiers
This appendix suggests a way of organizing an inventory of infrastructure assets that categorizes infrastructure into nine basic grouping. Planners are encouraged to customize this listing to suit the particular needs of each institution. In general, the nomenclature for infrastructure classification provided in this appendix is similar to the format for coding nonassignable space in that it uses letters to categorize the infrastructure into nine basic groupings. Appendix F contains a coding system for assignable apace coding including room use coding, nonassignable space coding and infrastructure classification that makes use of numeric codes only. Appendix F also contains a table that translates the assignable and nonassignable space coding schemes used in the 1994 FICM and maintained in the body of the 2006 FICM into the unified numeric coding scheme to accommodate legacy systems.
