About this file

This is a comprehensive federal specification (UFGS 34 75 13.13) for replacing vehicle arrest systems, specifically crash-rated active vehicle barriers and controls. The document provides detailed technical requirements for a complete vehicle barrier system including active vehicle barriers, traffic signals, warning beacons, control panels, detection systems, electrical components, and associated infrastructure. Key technical specifications include crash-rated barriers with impact resistance per ASTM F2656/F2656M standards, requirements for barriers to withstand specific vehicle weights and speeds, operational modes (EFO, Test, Local), and integrated safety features like vehicle presence detectors, traffic signals, and alarm systems.

The specification covers extensive installation, testing, and commissioning requirements, including factory acceptance tests, performance verification tests, contractor verification tests, and post-commissioning evaluations. Critical components include programmable logic controllers, control panels with multiple operation modes, audible and visual alarm systems, and detailed safety schemes to protect both authorized personnel and potential threat vehicles. The document mandates comprehensive documentation, training for guards and maintenance personnel, and rigorous testing protocols to ensure system reliability and safety. The specification is designed for military access control points (ACP/ECF) and requires compliance with multiple federal and industry standards including NFPA, IEEE, ASTM, and AASHTO guidelines.
