sorry Jos for my "germanism" :( ,
I am not so familiar with "fortification english" (even having been engineer for research and development)
I see that was wrong, thinking about Todt etc.

with construction (Konstruktion in German) I meant
- design
- specification what and how it has to be done
- and so on

all this can be found (as you know perfectly) at BAMA Findbücher and very detailed in the (classical) book
"Der deutsche Festungsbau 1900-1945 von der Memel zum Atlantik" by A.Molt, member of In 5(Fest) and In Lb west since 1930

Gruss
Jürgen

Hello

Here are two interresting extracts about bunker design and buildung.
P3010648.jpg
(from Dipl. Ing. Werner Floss)
It seems that all festungsmässigen series come from Wa Prüf 5/Fest, no matter the army prefix M, L, H, usw.

Image
(From OT Führer Xaver Dorsch)
It looks that a so-called provisional serie with 1 m thick walls has been developped in 43-44 ? It can't be the VF serie...

Regards

The last extract could be the St model bunkers build in 1 meter , for example
the 621's in Belgium and the 627 , 630 and other build 1 meter in the Bretagne ??

I don't believe that the 600 in feldm. are included in a series but I can be wrong and I admit that your option is possible. However I would be very surprised in this case, these bunkers seem me to be local design (on the bottom of the hierarchy) and Dorsch is in Berlin and in the OT-Zentrale on the top of the hierarchy, in addition he was not a festungpionnier.
I would think that if Dorsch was aware of such a serie it would have been designed by the top hierarchy level of Festunpionnier, no ? I have the feeling that relationships between OT and Fest.Pi. are not easy to understand.

I should be able to provide more information about this "behelfsmässige Bauweise" by the end of the next week.
