FOREWORD

The Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) system is prescribed by MIL-STD 3007 and provides planning, design, construction, sustainment, restoration, and modernization criteria, and applies to the Military Departments, the Defense Agencies, and the DoD Field Activities in accordance with USD (AT&L) Memorandum dated 29 May 2002. UFC will be used for all DoD projects and work for other customers where appropriate. All construction outside of the United States, its territories, and possessions is also governed by Status of Forces Agreements (SOFA), Host Nation Funded Construction Agreements (HNFA), and in some instances, Bilateral Infrastructure Agreements (BIA). Therefore, the acquisition team must ensure compliance with the most stringent of the UFC, the SOFA, the HNFA, and the BIA, as applicable.

UFC are living documents and will be periodically reviewed, updated, and made available to users as part of the Military Department’s responsibility for providing technical criteria for military construction. Headquarters, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (HQUSACE), Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command (NAVFAC), and Air Force Civil Engineer Center (AFCEC) are responsible for administration of the UFC system. Technical content of UFC is the responsibility of the cognizant DoD working group. Defense Agencies should contact the respective DoD Working Group for document interpretation and improvements. Recommended changes with supporting rationale may be sent to the respective DoD working group by submitting a Criteria Change Request (CCR) via the Internet site listed below.

UFC are effective upon issuance and are distributed only in electronic media from the following source:

• Whole Building Design Guide website https://www.wbdg.org/ffc/dod.

INTRODUCTION

1-1 BACKGROUND.

Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) provide common requirements across DoD for safety, sustainability, durability, and functionality for DoD facilities. UFC incorporate a combination of consensus building codes, DoD-defined technical and user requirements, and applicable statutory and regulatory requirements.

1-2 PURPOSE AND SCOPE.

UFC 1-200-01 represents the foundational document of the UFC program in providing general building requirements and overarching criteria, establishing the use of consensus building codes and standards, establishing criteria implementation rules and protocols (including core UFC), and identifying unique military criteria. In accordance with the authority in MIL-STD-3007G, UFC are prepared by DoD committees called Discipline Working Group (DWG), and are published by the Military Services under the authority of the Engineering Senior Executive Panel (ESEP), comprised of the following:

• Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense (Construction) Office of the Secretary of Defense

• Chief, Engineering and Construction, Headquarters United States Army Corps of Engineers (HQ USACE)

• Chief Engineer, Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command

(NAVFAC)

• Headquarters US Air Force, Deputy Director of Civil Engineers DCS/Logistics, Engineering & Force Protection (HAF/A4C)

1-3 APPLICABILITY.

This UFC applies to the planning, design, construction, sustainment, restoration, and modernization of DoD-owned facilities. It is applicable to all methods of project delivery and levels of construction as defined below. For facilities supporting military operations see Paragraph 1-3.3.

1-3.1 Implementation, Administration, and Enforcement.

UFC and their referenced codes and Criteria are effective upon issuance for projects as follows:

• Design-Bid-Build projects that have not proceeded beyond 35% design completion.

• Design-Build projects that have not proceeded beyond date of Request for Proposal (RFP) issuance. When an RFP is issued in multiple phases or steps use the date of the last phase of the RFP issuance.

• Projects that have a delay, either planned or unintentional, of more than 18 months between design completion and the solicitation of offers for construction must be re-evaluated to determine if any design revision is necessary due to changes in criteria (including codes and standards) or site infrastructure (for example, water supply for fixed fire suppression systems, water for hose stream allowances, or fire department vehicle access). Note: The evaluation must also include retroactive requirements that have been included in the new editions of the criteria.

1-3.2 Levels of Construction.

1-3.2.1 Permanent Construction.

Permanent facilities must follow Chapter 2 of this UFC, which contains modifications to the IBC. Buildings and facilities are considered permanent construction unless meeting other definitions herein. Permanent construction is intended to address a level of quality and durability to achieve a life expectancy of more than 25 years.

1-3.2.2 Temporary Construction.

In accordance with the IBC Section 3103, temporary construction includes structures erected for a period less than 180 days. Temporary structures must conform to the structural strength, fire safety, means of egress, accessibility, light, ventilation and sanitary requirements of the IBC, as modified in Chapter 2 of this UFC. Extension of temporary construction occupancy or usage 180 days or beyond requires a written justification request and approval from the BO/ AHJ. Extension approvals may be renewed at the discretion of the BO/AHJ; however, occupancy or facility usage cannot occur beyond 5 years from date of initial occupancy.

1-3.3 Facilities in Support of Military Operations.

Use the following UFC for facilities used in support of military operations. These UFC are self-contained documents and contain all design requirements for the respective subjects. The UFC hierarchy stated in paragraph 1-3.5, and subparagraphs does not apply to these UFC. These UFC apply to all DoD components involved with planning, design, construction and renovation of non-permanent facilities, both new construction and renovations to non-permanent facilities (where renovation does not convert the facility to permanent), used by US military and DoD civilian personnel in support of Military Operations, actions with written Operation Orders (OPORDS); examples include Kinetic actions, Disaster Recovery, Humanitarian Assistance, and Defense Support to Civil Authorities.

1-3.3.1 UFC 1-201-01.

Use UFC 1-201-01 for planning, design, construction and renovation of non-permanent facilities used by US military and DoD civilian personnel in support of military operations.

1-3.3.2 UFC 1-201-02.

Use UFC 1-201-02 to assess existing facilities for life safety and habitability for potential occupancy by DoD personnel in support of military operations. Requirements for preliminary evaluations do not apply when forces occupying the facility are engaged in actual combat operations.

1-3.3.3 \1\ Host Nation Facilities.

Use the International Building Code® (IBC) for planning, design and construction of all facilities built for Host Nation personnel use outside of the United States and its territories and possessions. Use the IBC in conjunction with Status of Forces agreements (SOFA), bilateral agreements or other Host Nation (HN) agreements. /1/

1-3.4 Waivers and Exemptions.

A waiver provides authority to deviate from a criteria requirement for a specific period, typically 12 months. An exemption provides authority to deviate from a requirement indefinitely. Refer to MIL-STD-3007 for the waiver and exemption request and approval process.

1-3.5 UFC Hierarchy.

UFC 1-200-01 is the overarching document for buildings and facilities owned by DoD.

UFC 1-200-01 directs the use of the International Building Code® (IBC), the International Existing Building Code® (IEBC), International Green Construction Code® (IgCC), Core UFC, other UFC as applicable to the building, facility, structure, or system, and Facility Criteria (FC) as they pertain to the applicable DoD Component.

1-3.5.1 UFC 3- Series.

The UFC 3- Series and FC 3- Series (simply referred to as UFC 3- Series) provide discipline specific criteria requirements for the various engineering disciplines.

• If conflict occurs between two UFC within the UFC 3- Series, the requirements of the UFC that is more detailed pertaining to that specific building, facility, structure, or system take precedence.

1-3.5.2 UFC 4- Series.

The UFC 4- Series and FC 4- Series (simply referred to as UFC 4- Series) provide requirements for multi-disciplinary and facility-specific design.

• If conflict occurs between two UFC within the UFC 4- Series, the requirements of the UFC that is more detailed pertaining to that specific building, facility, structure, or system take precedence.

• If conflict occurs between a UFC 4- Series and a UFC 3- Series, the requirements of the UFC 4- Series take precedence.

1-4 OVERARCHING CRITERIA OR REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS.

Design and Construction must comply with Public Laws (P.L.), Executive Orders (E.O.), Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Department of Defense Instructions (DoDI), Department of Defense Manuals (DoDM), and Department of Defense Directives (DoDD) or other higher authority documents as applicable.

1-4.1 Vending Facilities for the Blind.

Verify with the using activity the requirement to provide blind-operated vending facilities in compliance with the Randolph-Sheppard Act and DoDI 1125.03. This requirement generally applies in buildings that are over 15,000 square feet (1,400 square meters) that will contain over 100 employees, but may also apply in other situations at the discretion of the using activity.

1-4.2 Nursing and Lactation Rooms.

Provide a private space for nursing mothers as required by the Office of the Undersecretary of Defense (OUSD) Memorandum, Department-Wide Policy for Nursing and Lactation Rooms at military installations and DoD facilities. Use the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) Guide for Establishing a Federal Nursing Mother’s Program to implement best practices for creating a successful nursing mother’s program, consistent with the demand of the workplace and the needs of the mission.

This space must not be a bathroom, and must be shielded from view and free from intrusion of others. A nursing mother’s space must be functional, with a private space with a place to sit and a flat surface, other than the floor, to place the breast pump and other supplies. Although there are no size or permanency requirements, this space must provide access to electricity for the use of a breast pump, as well as good lighting, a comfortable temperature, and proper ventilation; and be near a source of hot and cold running water. In addition, comply with any command-specific policy applicable to this requirement or applicable to the establishment of a working mothers program within the facility.

1-6.3.4 Other Military Criteria.

Military criteria other than those listed in this UFC may be applicable to specific types of structures, building systems, or building occupancies. Such structures, systems, or buildings must meet the additional requirements of applicable military criteria.

1-6.3.4.1 Explosive Safety.

Facilities that involve DoD Ammunition and Explosives (AE) storage, handling, maintenance, manufacture or disposal, as well as facilities within the explosives safety quantity distance (ESQD) arcs of AE facilities, must comply with the requirements found in DoDM 6055.09, as well as implementing Service criteria found in DA PAM 385-64 (Army), NAVSEA OP 5 (Navy and Marine Corps), and DESR6055.09_AFMAN91-201 (Air Force). DoD facilities exposed to potential explosion effects from AE belonging to other nations are also required to meet DoD and Service explosives safety criteria.

Closely coordinate the planning and design of new facilities, and occupation, repair, alteration, and restoration of existing AE-related facilities, or other facilities within ESQD arcs with knowledgeable explosives safety professionals in theater, or with the Services’ Explosives Safety Centers. Coordinate as early as possible in the planning and design process to avoid issues or problems and to ensure compliance. Facility construction or use within ESQD arcs requires review for compliance with explosives safety criteria, and must have either an approved explosives safety site plan or an approved explosives safety deviation. Refer to the DoD Service documents mentioned above for further applicable guidance.

1-6.3.4.2 Facility Systems Safety.

Safety is an important component of maintaining and operating DoD facilities. Consider safety during design. Incorporate a hazards review into the regular design review process to ensure systems safety has been considered at the earliest phases of project development to reduce and mitigate unintentional maintenance and operational hazards. For Army projects, incorporate the safety engineering practices delineated under the Facilities Systems Safety (FASS) program as prescribed under DA PAM 385- 16, to the extent practicable and feasible. For Air Force projects, incorporate the safety engineering practices delineated in DAFMAN 91-203, to the extent practicable and feasible. For Navy, the Designer of Record must follow the concepts from the most current ANSI/ASSP Z590.3. DoD facilities must comply with DoDI 6055.01 and applicable Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety and health standards.

1-6.3.4.3 Antiterrorism.

Antiterrorism is defined as defensive measures used to reduce the vulnerability of individuals and property to terrorist acts. UFC 4-010-01 sets the minimum requirements for DoD buildings, and the Geographic Combatant Commander Antiterrorism Construction Standards address unique requirements specific to their area of responsibility. Refer to UFC 4-010-01 and the Geographic Combatant Commander Antiterrorism Construction Standards for the minimum antiterrorism requirements.

1-6.3.4.4 Physical Security.

Physical security is defined as that part of security concerned with physical measures designed and placed to safeguard personnel; to prevent unauthorized access to installations, equipment, material and documents, and to safeguard them against espionage, sabotage, damage, and theft. Many buildings require some level of physical security. When required, integrate physical measures into the site, building, room, or area as applicable. DoD requirements for physical security related to specific assets are documented in DoD publications, directives, manuals, and instructions. The Services have related documents that implement the DoD policy for the Services. The main DoD documents that contain the physical security requirements for the protection of specific DoD assets are shown in Table 1-1. This does not include the policy documents associated with the protection of nuclear and chemical assets.

104.1 General [Replacement]

The Building Official/AHJ is a person authorized and directed to enforce the provisions of this code, UFC, or FC. They have the authority to render interpretations of this code, UFC, or FC and to clarify the application of the provisions. Such interpretations will be in compliance with the intent and purpose of this code, UFC, or FC and will not have the effect of waiving or exempting requirements specifically provided for in this code, UFC, or FC. For waiver and exemption process and authority refer to Section 104.10 Waivers and exemptions.

104.10 Waivers and exemptions [Replacement]

Where there are practical difficulties involved in carrying out the provisions of this code, UFC, or FC; the Building Official/AHJ must first find that special individual case or reason that makes the strict letter of this code, UFC, or FC impractical resulting in noncompliance with requirements or an increased risk to: health, accessibility, life and fire safety, structural requirements, or operational requirements. Such cases will be treated as a waiver or exemption. Waivers and exemptions to specific UFC or FC requirements are approved by the Service’s Chief Engineer, Engineering Senior Executive Panel signature authority for the Service. Refer to MIL-STD 3007 for waivers and exemption definitions and for specific requirements for approval.

104.11 Alternative materials, design and methods of construction and equipment [Replacement]

The provisions of this code, UFC, or FC are not intended to prevent the installation of any material or to prohibit any design or method of construction not specifically prescribed by this code, provided that any such alternative has been approved. An alternative material, design, or method of construction may be approved where the Building Official/AHJ finds that the proposed design is satisfactory and complies with the intent of the provisions of this code, UFC, or FC, and that the material, method, or work offered is, for the purpose intended, not less than the equivalent of that prescribed in this code, UFC, or FC in quality, strength, effectiveness, fire resistance, durability, and safety. When the alternative material, design, or method of construction is not

[C] 104.10 Waivers and exemptions [Supplement] Avoid requests for waivers and exemptions if possible. The objective is a criteria- or code-compliant engineering solution for the facility versus a waiver or exemption request. UFC and FC requirements are intended to address code-compliant facility requirements; life, health and safety requirements; property loss prevention; lowest lifecycle cost; and facility operational requirements. For issues dealing with life, health, and safety, cost is not a valid reason to grant a waiver or exemption. Waiving or exempting requirements typically results in increased risk to safety or property loss, increased operational risk, or poor return on investment.

approved, the Building Official/AHJ will respond in writing, stating the reasons why the alternative was not approved.

104.11.1 Research reports [Replacement]

Supporting data, where necessary to assist in the approval of materials or assemblies not specifically provided for in this code, UFC, or FC, must consist of valid research reports from approved sources.

104.11.2 Tests [Replacement]

Whenever there is insufficient evidence of compliance with the provisions of this code, or evidence that a material or method does not conform to the requirements of this code, or in order to substantiate claims for alternative materials or methods, the Building Official/AHJ has the authority to require tests as evidence of compliance to be made without expense to the government. Test methods are as specified in this code, UFC, or FC or by other recognized test standards. In the absence of recognized and accepted test methods, the Building Official/AHJ must approve the testing procedures.

Perform tests by an approved agency. Building Official/AHJ retains reports of such tests.

104.11.3 Overseas locations [Addition]

In overseas locations where the SOFA, HNFA, OEBGD, or BIA may govern requirements, the Building Official/AHJ will review the situation and determine what, if any, measures are appropriate to take to compensate for measures not allowed by the host nation or that present practical difficulties involved in carrying out the provisions.

Measures taken must not lessen quality, strength, effectiveness, fire resistance, durability, and safety. In these instances, formal exemptions are not required. The details of action granting alternative materials, design and methods of construction and equipment will be recorded and entered in the project document files by the Building Official/AHJ. Note that alternative materials, design and methods of construction and equipment must not be misconstrued as a waiver or exemption. Waivers and exemptions are addressed in 104.10.
