  Frisk Search
  5-98. Quick and adequate to detect weapons, evidence, or contraband. A frisk search is more dangerous
  because the searcher has less control of the individual being searched.
  Wall Search
  5-99. Affords more safety for the searcher by leaning the suspect against any upright surface, such as a
  wall, vehicle, tree, or fence. The search team places the subject in the kneeling or prone position if more
  control is needed to search an uncooperative individual.
  Strip Search
  5-100. Considered only when the individual is suspected of carrying documents or other contraband on
  his or her person. This extreme search method should be conducted in an enclosed area and by qualified
  personnel when available.
  Search with Sensors
  5-101. Metal detectors or thermals can identify hidden items.
  Population Control
  5-102. Three basic methods are used to control the population during a search of an urban area: assembly
  of inhabitants in a central location, restriction of inhabitants to their homes, and control of the heads of the
  households.
  Assemble Inhabitants in a Central Location
  5-103. This method moves inhabitants from their homes to a central area. It provides the most control,
  simplifies a thorough search, denies insurgents an opportunity to conceal evidence, and allows for tactical
  questioning. However, this method has the disadvantage of taking the inhabitants away from their
  dwellings and possibly encouraging looting, which, in turn, engenders ill feelings. A specific element must
  be identified to control the centralized inhabitants. A TPT, using a loudspeaker, can facilitate assembly by
  giving specific instructions to the inhabitants of the search area.
  Restrict Inhabitants to their Home
  5-104. This technique prohibits movement of civilians, allows them to stay in their dwellings,
  and discourages looting. The use of a TPT to broadcast “stay-indoors” messages facilitates clearing the
  streets of civilians and aids in restricting their movement. The security element must enforce this restriction
  to ensure compliance. The disadvantages of this method are it makes control and tactical questioning
  difficult, and gives inhabitants time to conceal contraband in their homes.
  Control Heads of Households
  5-105. The head of each household is told to remain in front of the house while everyone else in the
  house is brought to one room. The security element controls the group at the central location, controls the
  head of each household, and provides external security for the search team. When dealing with the head
  of a household, it is important to explain the purpose of the search using an interpreter. During the search,
  the head of the household accompanies the search team through the house. This person can be used to open
  doors and containers to facilitate the search. It is important for the head of the household to see that the
  search team steals nothing.
  Houses or Buildings
  5-106. The object of a house search is to look for contraband and to screen residents to determine if any
  are guerrillas, auxiliaries, members of the underground or the mass base. A search party assigned to search
  an occupied building should consist of at least one local police officer, a protective escort for local
  security, and a female searcher. If inhabitants remain in the dwellings, the protective escort must isolate
  and secure the inhabitants during the search. Forced entry may be necessary if a house is vacant or if an
  occupant refuses to allow searchers to enter. If the force searches a house containing property while its
