Abstract
The article deals with the constructing methods for experiments carried out in an incomplete split-plot design supplemented by an additional treatment, called a single control. The control treatment has been treated usually as one specific factor level while not necessarily. The control cannot be connected with treatment combinations in an experiment. This distinguishes this article from others in the area considered. The proposed supplementation of whole incomplete split-plot designs leads to the designs with generally accepted methodological requirements, especially randomization. Moreover, we propose a few methods for constructing considered types of the designs with desirable statistical properties such as general balance and efficiency balance of the design with respect to treatment contrasts.
