A.OVERVIEW

Comply with Air Force Corporate Standards for Overview:

http:/ /afcfs.wbdg.org/index.html

This Installation Facilities Standards (IFS) document is part of the Air Force Corporate Facilities Standards (AFCFS) program to assist bases in implementing and maintaining facilities standards as appropriate for efficient operations within the respective climate region. IFS fully replaces, consolidates and simplifies existing facilities standards documents, such as the Architectural Compatibility Plan (ACP) or AC Gs, FEPs, etc., and organizes information using the same structure, or Table of Contents, as the AFCFS website.

IFS reflects the AFCFS' concepts of "Facility Hierarchy" (categorizing facilities into group numbers) and "Facility Quality" (assigning an appropriate level of quality to each group number) and applies these principles at the base level. Applicable DoD and Air Force criteria such as UFCs, AFls, Memoranda, and UFGSs (Guide Specs) are referenced and linked within IFS to ensure the document is always current.

Navigating within this IFS is efficient and straightforward. Please use the interactive Table of Contents to locate subject matter, and click on the title of a section to access it. From any page, click on the "Back to Table of Contents" footer to return. Content is organized into 4 major sections: Installation Elements, Site Development, Facilities Exteriors and Facilities Interiors.

This IFS document begins as a fill-in PDF form, which is fully editable, and becomes a "living document" that can be regularly updated by base-level personnel following a format that is consistent across the Air Force. While the format is standardized, IFS content is customized for base operations and the local climate to ensure mission success while emphasizing reduced maintenance and reduced initial costs, life-cycle costs, energy use, and water use.

1. Conformance to Air Force Corporate Facilities Standards (AFCFS) and Installation Facilities Standards (IFS) are required by Air

Force Instruction (AFI) 32-1023 and Air Force Memorandum. Please refer to the AFCFS website for links to documentation on current policy.

2. The IFS is a component plan of the Installation Development Plan (IDP) per Air Force Instruction (AFI) 32-7062 (replacing the

Architectural Compatibility Plan). All military construction projects and Non-Appropriated Funds (NAF) facilities are required to comply with the IDP and its IFS component plan by AFI 32-1023. The Base Civil Engineer (BCE) maintains and implements the IDP and its component plans, to include the IFS.

3. Please refer to the AFCFS website as a portal to reference materials and requirements documents for design and construction projects (via links). Specific references to current DoD memoranda and Air Force criteria are updated periodically to provide the most current guidance and requirements. Programming, design and contract documents should list"current edition"for all reference and requirements documents. The documents in force at the date of execution of the design and/or construction contract shall be the governing version.

4. Advanced Modeling Requirements:

For all Air Force projects requiring advanced modeling, to include 30 visualization, Building Information Modeling (BIM), facility data, quantity take-off, geospatial, etc., follow the Army standards. Refer to USACE Minimum Model Matrix (M3) and Project

Execution Plan (PxP) which outline required model uses. Refer to CAD BIM Technology Center (Contract Requirements) for more information on M3 and PxP.

5. Joint Bases shall implement IFS under their Joint-Base designation with volume numbers for individual installations following the IFS Development Tool template. For example, for Joint Base Langley-Eustis, provide: Vol. 1 Langley AFB and Vol. 2 Fort Eustis.

1. The Base Civil Engineer is responsible for developing, maintaining and implementing the installation's Comprehensive Planning documents and to ensure that the Installation Development Plan (IDP) is prepared, maintained, and implemented following AFI 32-7062. The base is also required to provide and maintain Installation Facilities Standards (IFS) as a Component Plan of the base's Installation Development Plan (IDP).

B01.1.1. IFS Component Plan of IDP r Applicable (e N/A Large graphics r Applicable (e N/A Small graphics

The IFS is a multipurpose tool that shall be used throughout the entire planning, programming, and design process, from inception to project completion for any project on base. While architectural designers are the primary users of the plan, it must

Fairchild Air Force Base IFS Page 7 of 122

FA462024R0001, Amendment 0004 also be used by project managers, programmers, planners, engineers, maintenance and operations personnel, self-help personnel, and the Architectural Compatibility Review Board (ACRB). Any items purchased for the exterior of buildings - including those purchased with impact cards - must conform to the requirements prescribed in the IFS.

Fairchild AFB has a foundation for architectural unity. The existing architecture depicts a predominant materials palette and a consistency of material detailing. The following design standards are applicable to the entire installation, to both host and tenant organizations.

The goal is to design excellent facilities that satisfy all of these priorities: The first priority is to achieve architectural compatibility for Fairchild Air Force Base as a whole. The second priority is compatibility within an architectural setting or sub-area.

Outstanding designs for individual buildings or facilities are the third priority.

Site planning and site development issues contribute significantly to the architectural context. Building setbacks and the scale and definition of space are as fundamental to creating architectural compatibility as consistent facade designs. Develop exterior spaces to promote pedestrian use and activity and to connect buildings and the landscape. Use the landscape with other visual elements to create greater continuity.

About the Architectural Compatibility Review Board (ACRB):

• The ACRB is the installation approval authority for all designs and visual features on the installation. Projects with design features or proposals that compete with standards or methods as prescribed by the IFS or would otherwise establish a new precedent, require ACRB approval.

• The ACRB is organized by the Base Civil Engineer (BCE).

• The chair person as appointed.

• Members include the base architects, community planner, engineering flight chief, operations flight chief, project manager, and others as determined by the chair person.

• The base architect, engineering disciplines, and project manager review designs regardless of ACRB involvement.

• The ACRB meets as required.

• Most projects, regardless of size, must be approved by the ACRB. (The chairperson makes the determination on review requirements).

• Design projects are submitted to the ACRB by the base-assigned project manager

The arrival of Gen. Fairchild Gen. Fairchild Portrait Unveiling Dedication Ceremony, 1951

Since 1942, Fairchild Air Force Base has been an integral part of our nation's defense strategy; first as a key WWII repair and supply depot, then as a Strategic Air Command bomber, tanker and ICBM wing during the Cold War and, finally, as an Air Mobility

Command air refueling wing supporting contingency operations around the world. Today, Fairchild's aircraft and personnel make up the backbone of the Air Force's tanker fleet on the west coast. This Center of Excellence for Air Refueling is the home of the Air

Fairchild Air Force Base IFS Page8 of 122

FA462024R0001, Amendment 0004

Force's premier tanker base and survival training school house. However, it must be noted that it was the vision of Spokane's city leaders and the support of the people of Spokane that made the base a reality.

The 92d Air Refueling Wing, the 141 st Air Refueling Wing, the 336th Training Group, and the associate units at Fairchild, and the Spokane community have forged an impressive relationship over the years. This team, "Team Fairchild," has earned a well deserved reputation for excellence. Team Fairchild will continue to meet future challenges in its usual fashion, and in so doing will preserve the legacy of excellence that began over 75 years ago by providing responsive, precise air refueling and operational support for a full range of military operations.
