About this file
This is a section from the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 3-301-01 document dated April 11, 2023 with Change 2 from September 4, 2024, which provides Department of Defense (DoD) construction standards. The document specifically addresses requirements for roll-up doors and sectional doors in hurricane-prone regions, as well as guidelines for determining design wind speeds for different locations. For hurricane-prone regions, doors in risk category II structures must undergo pressure testing according to ANSI/DASMA 108 standards, with requirements noted on construction drawings. The document provides resources for determining basic design wind speeds through the Whole Building Design Guide website's structural load data tool for both U.S. and international locations.
The document outlines specific technical requirements including pressure testing standards for components and cladding design wind pressure. For locations where basic design wind speeds are not provided in the tool, practitioners should refer to ASCE 7-16 or consult the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). For temporary structures, the document permits multiplying the basic wind speed by a reduction factor of 0.78, superseding Section 3-2.1.5 of UFC 1-201-01. The document includes specific URLs for accessing the structural load data tool and emphasizes the importance of documenting wind pressure specifications on construction drawings.

UFC 3-301-01
11 April 2023
Change 2, 4 September 2024
1609.2.5 – Roll Up Doors and Sectional Doors in Hurricane Prone Regions [Addition]
In hurricane prone regions, roll up doors or sectional doors used for risk category II structures and above must be pressure tested for components and cladding design wind pressure and shown to pass in accordance with ANSI/DASMA 108, Standard Method for Testing Sectional Garage Doors and Rolling Doors. This requirement must be noted on the construction drawings in addition to the project specifications. The SER must specify the components and cladding design wind pressure for garage/sectional doors on the construction drawings.
1609.3.2 - Specific Locations Within the United States [Addition]
Basic design wind speeds at DoD installations within the United States and its territories and possessions can be identified using the structural load data tool hosted on the Whole Building Design Guide website at:
https://www.wbdg.org/additional-resources/tools/ufcsldt
At locations where the basic design wind speed is not provided, refer to ASCE 7- 16 and, if not available in ASCE 7-16, consult the AHJ.
1609.3.3 - Specific Locations Outside of the United States [Addition]
Basic design wind speeds at specific locations outside of the United States and its territories and possessions can be identified using the structural load data tool hosted on the Whole Building Design Guide website at:
https://www.wbdg.org/additional-resources/tools/ufcsldt
At locations where the basic design wind speed is not provided, use the best locally available information.
1609.3.4 – Design Wind Speed for Temporary Structures [Addition]
For Temporary Structures, as defined in UFC 1-201-01, it is permissible to multiply the basic wind speed, V, as identified in UFC 3-301-01, by a reduction factor of 0.78.
This section supersedes Section 3-2.1.5 of UFC 1-201-01.
