A construction method for group divisible designs is employed to construct (i) infinitely many non-symmetric semiregular group divisible designs whose duals are semiregular group divisible designs, and (ii) infinitely many transversal designs whose duals are group divisible 3-associate designs. A construction method for affine α−resolvable balanced incomplete block designs is also given and illustrated.
