FINAL DRAFT 2-29-96
Revised 10/96
Foreword
The material contained in the Radiation Therapy
Service Design Guide is the culmination of a
partnering effort by the Department of Veterans
Affairs Radiation Therapy Service, the
Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health
Administration, and the Facilities Quality Office.
The goal of the Design Guide is to simplify the
design process and to ensure the quality of VA
facilities while controlling construction and
operating costs.
This document is intended to be used as a guide
and to supplement current technical manuals
and other VA criteria in planning a Radiation
Therapy Service. The Design Guide is not to be
used as a standard design and use of the
Design Guide does not preclude the need for a
functional and physical design program for each
specific project. It is the project Architects and
Engineers responsibility to develop a complete
and accurate project design that best meets the
users needs and applicable code requirements.
