New jail construction is a major capital undertaking, which often represents the single largest project in which county officials will ever be involved. Many local jurisdictions are replacing outdated facilities as well as expanding bedspace to accommodate increasing numbers of inmates. The U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Statistics reports the capacity of the nation's jails increased by approximately 20,000 beds during the year ending June 30, 1997 To respond to local jurisdictions' need for assistance in jail planning and design, the National Institute of Corrections offers a Facility Development Program that provides guidance as they proceed with jail planning, design, construction, and transition. This document supports the Facility Development Program by providing information about basic concepts and issues surrounding jail design.
