Relations between optimum chemical balance weighing designs for v and v+1 objects [PDF]
Summary: The incidence matrices of BIB designs for \(v\) treatments have been used to construct optimum chemical balance weighing designs for \(p=v\) or \(p=v+1\) objects. Conditions under which the existence of an optimum chemical balance weighing design for \(v\) objects implies the existence of an optimum chemical balance weighing design for \(v+1\)

Some Construction Methods of A-Optimum Chemical Balance Weighing Designs
Some new construction methods of the optimum chemical balance weighing designs and pairwise efficiency and variance balanced designs are proposed, which are based on the incidence matrices of the known symmetric balanced incomplete block designs. Also the conditions under which the constructed chemical balance weighing designs become A-optimal are also
