AbstractIn this paper we present the classification of symmetric designs with parameters (79, 27, 9) on which a non-abelian group of order 39 acts faithfully. In particular, we show that such a group acts semi-standardly with 7 orbits. Using the method of tactical decompositions, we are able to construct exactly 1320 non-isomorphic designs. The orders of the full automorphism groups of these designs all divide 8 · 3 · 13.
