Currently researching information on POI/Outposts, Trainers, Skills and Crafting, and something that is much related are structures and plots of lands.
Is there are current reference materials for:
A) Known structures and their plot sizes (current and future)?
B) How many plots of lands a Settlement has available?
C) Information on large scale structures and improves such as Fortifications, Roads, Bridges, Walls, and similar large scale engineering projects?

We don't have a comprehensive list of building names yet but we've assembled some scraps of data.
PLOTS
The latest design we know about gives each settlement 3 large, 6 medium, and 10 small plots, as well as 10 tiny plots for civic assets/decorations.
ROLE TRAINING AND SUPPORT
Large plot trainers include University for arcane roles, Cathedral for divine roles, a Guild Hall for roguish types, and something for fighterish roles.
There will be a medium plot trainer for each role. We have the names Temple for clerics, Academy for wizards, Fighter College for fighters, and Thieves Guild for rogues; I don't think we have any others.
There are also medium plot buildings for "feat schools", which are collections of abilities common to several different roles. These include Dreadnaught for heavy martial training, Skirmisher for light martial, Seminary for divine, and War Wizard and Occultist for arcane (blasty and nasty, respectively).
There are small plot structures for each role which will offer support for trained skills, but no new training. I don't recall us being given names for any of these structures.
CRAFTING
Small-plot crafting buildings support 2 or 3 related crafting skills, such as a Smeltmill for Mining and Smelting, or a Quartermaster for Armorsmith, Weaponsmith, and Engineer. The buildings we know about from the alpha settlement can be found under "Training Guide" in this reference document.
There are also supposed to be medium-plot crafting buildings that support larger combinations of skills, but we haven't seen those yet.
CIVIC ASSETS / DECORATIONS
These are non-interactable structures which provides small boosts to various Development Indexes: things like statues, wells, piles of skulls, and so forth. We have no final info on what options this list will include.
OTHER
The Keep is the heart of each settlement, is required, and does not occupy a plot.
Taverns occupy a medium plot and permit power recovery.
Marketplaces occupy a large plot. Small or medium markets with limited functionality have been requested and are TBD.
Guard towers, theaters, and wizard's towers were mentioned in an older dev blog without explanation or detail; they may or may not remain part of the design.
DEFENSE AND INFRASTRUCTURE
We know next to nothing about walls, fortifications, road construction, or any other major engineering projects.

"3 slots, 2 slots, 1 slot": I'm not sure where you're getting these numbers. Large training halls can be upgraded to train 3 roles, but mediums can train only 1. If you're referring to plot size slots in some way, those numbers are invented and meaningless because a large plot is not 3 small plots; it's just a large plot.

I think I may be using an old reference when I added that, I see your point. Next update will remove that, and instead just indicate max plots per size category (example: Large; Max 3 plots).
Would that make more sense?

We've been told that there are medium crafting halls that support multiple trades, but we haven't seen those yet.
I don't imagine many settlements will build those, though. Feat schools and taverns will be too important to build crafting capabilities in mediums when you can get the same functionality from smalls.

No settlement will be able to stand alone able to train everyone everything. You're going to have a friendly settlement that will hopefully coordinate with yours to ensure everyone has a place to train anything possible to train.
Your 'sister settlement' will be nearly as important to your character as his own.

The information above is still valid, I am waiting for new information before I update this thread. Here is hopping that the soon to arrive POI/Outpost blog is very informative. :)
In the meantime; Tork Shaw wrote something very interesting...
