Constructions for Steiner quadruple systems with a spanning block design

A singular direct product construction is presented for Steiner quadruple systems with a spanning block design. More constructions are also provided using Steiner systems S(3,k, v) and other designs. Small orders for v = 40 and 52 are constructed directly. Some infinite classes of orders are also obtained.
