65. Initial Deployment Regions
Stable section ID: S05-CON-016-SECTION-67 · 18 content blocks
Initial Deployment Regions shall be selected through documented technical, regulatory, manufacturing, social, and economic criteria.
Selection considerations shall include:
access to qualified engineers;
cooperative regulatory pathways;
laboratories and testing facilities;
material and manufacturing availability;
climate and hazard conditions;
construction workforce capacity;
housing need;
logistics and transportation;
maintenance and support capability;
potential research and funding partners.
The first region should permit direct engagement with Authorities Having Jurisdiction and manageable variation in applicable requirements.
Deployment shall begin with a specific Regional Profile rather than an undefined national or global claim.
The selection process shall evaluate whether local conditions are representative enough to generate transferable knowledge while remaining controlled enough for early implementation.
Regions with urgent housing needs shall not be used as locations for inadequately controlled experimentation merely because affected communities have limited alternatives.
Expansion beyond the initial region shall depend on regional gap analysis, adaptation, additional Evidence, and local approval.
Commercial interest alone shall not establish regional readiness.
