We consider sets of incomplete transversal designs with block size five TD [S; u] -TD [S; n]. We show that designs exist if and only if u 2 4n, with the possible exception of 108 values of (v, n) for which existence is undecided.

In this article, it is shown that the necessary condition for the existence of a holey perfect Mendelsohn design (HPMD) with block size 5 and type h n , namely, n โฅ 5 and n(n -1)h 2 โก 0 (mod 5), is also sufficient, except possibly for a few cases. The results of this article guarantee the analogous
In this article, we construct directed group divisible designs (DGDDs) with block size five, group-type h n , and index unity. The necessary conditions for the existence of such a DGDD are n โฅ 5, (n -1)h โก 0 (mod 2) and n(n -1)h 2 โก 0 (mod 10). It is shown that these necessary conditions are also su
A number of methods of construction of partially balanced inconiplete block designs with nested rows and columns are developed and new balanced incomp1et.e block designs with nested rows and columns are obtained as a by-product.
