Appendix F: An Integrated Numeric Coding Structure for Assignable and Non-assignable Space and Infrastructure
Table F-1 provides a numeric coding structure that is consistent for all facets of a facilities inventoryassignable space, nonassignable space, and infrastructure. Institutions that already have a facilities inventory that uses the codes for assignable and nonassignable space that were presented in the 1994 FICM and continued in the main body of the 2006 FICM may not wish to, or be able to, change their systems. On the other hand, institutions that are just beginning a facilities inventory system or that are upgrading their facilities inventory system, might consider using the numeric, integrated coding structure presented here.
