As previaualy dinted, requirementswere later increaned conBiderably but the above constitutedall the firm items on
which design waa prepared and material originally requisitioned.

6. Estimate of Material Required
a.

On the basis of the infonaation collected by Colonel Barney

at Kwajalein, on 1 and 2 Jovember 1947 he and Lt. Colonel Cranford, 926th
Engineer Aviation Group, personally calculated the bill of materials for
the job. In one evening the showers end heads were designed and the lumber
for tti whole job wag estimated. It is interestingto note that when the
Navy built the showers this design proved to be satisfacto~ and was used.
“Itwas felt that there would be additional items of work of considerable
magnitude and a 3@

over-run was allowed on quantities to cover

this except

where obviously inappropriate. In the case of 2C)’wide quonsets, a 10@
over-run was allowed.
b. On 3 November 1947 thie eatlmate was hurriedly screened by
the Hawaiian Engineer Depot, Hawaiian Air Matefiel Area, Wheeler Field Air
InatallationaOffice, end Hickam Field Air InatallationaOffice, to aee
what they could provide. On 4 November 1947, Colonel D. H. Tulley, JTF 7
Engineer, left for the mainland with a list of the unlocated balances. He
agreed that hia office would prmide thea~klances.
