In this paper we use DTRIQ and LR-design to present a new product construction for LRDTS v s. This provides some new infinite families of LRDTS v s. 1 Introduction Let X be a v-set. In what follows an ordered pair of X is always an ordered pair x y where x y E X. A transitive triple on X is a set of three ordered pairs x y y z and x z of X which is denoted by x y z . A directed triple system of order v denoted by DTS v is a pair X B where B is a collection of transitive triples on X called blocks such that each ordered pair of X occurs in exactly one block of B. A DTS v is called resolvable and is denoted by RDTS v if its blocks can be partitioned into subsets called parallel classes each containing every element of X exactly once. A large set of directed triple systems of order v denoted by LDTS v is a collection of 3 v 2 DTS v s based on X such that every transitive triple from X occurs as a block in exactly one of the 3 v 2 DTS v s. Existence results for LDTSs and RDTSs are well known from 1 9 . Theorem 1 There exists an LDTS v if and only if v 0 1 mod 3 and v 3. 2 There exists an RDTS v if and only if v 0 mod 3 v 3 and v 6.
