The concept of generalized partially balanced incomplete block (PBIB) design is introduced. Generalized PBIB designs are shown to be useful for the construction of equireplicate balanced block designs, pairwise balanced designs and BIB designs.
## Abstract The necessary conditions for the existence of a balanced incomplete block design on Ο ββ₯β__k__ points, with index Ξ» and block size __k__, are that: For __k__β=β8, these conditions are known to be sufficient when Ξ»β=β1, with 38 possible exceptions, the largest of which is Ο β=β3,753.
