Permanent Party Unaccompanied Housing

Description

Permanent Party Unaccompanied Housing (PPUH) remains one of the Army's most prioritized facilities due to the importance of solider wellbeing and combat readiness. PPUH facilities are intended to be similar both functionally and technically to apartment style housing in the private sector. The Standard Design provides ~90% of the population with four-bedroom, two bathroom units, which includes a kitchen and living area. This is identified as the “4/2 Module”. The Standard Design also provides ~10% of the population with two-bedroom, one bathroom units. This is identified as the “2/1 Module”. Each occupant is allotted 485 gross square feet in the building. Additional requirements can be found in UFC 4-721-01 – Permanent Party Unaccompanied Housing.

Variations

As the PPUH is designed to meet current soldier housing needs and local site conditions, the building configurations (U-Shaped, L-Shaped, Etc.) are flexible. The mandatory requirement is to provide the approved Army Standard room module configurations (4/2 Module @ ~90% & 2/1 Module @ ~10%) and required common spaces. The PPUH COS can provide the approved Army Standard room module configurations.
