YES NO

YES NO

This checklist is required to be completed for all DoD military funded projects contracted by Louisville District for new and existing building work. The design team members shall complete and sign this checklist for preliminary and final design milestones in the project's design analysis for record.

Describe intent and method to meet each Standard or indicate the Standard as Not Applicable (N/A).

Facility Name/Location/P2:

Is this facility new construction or is the 50% renovation threshold met? If yes, enter NEW or if renovation threshold exceeded, indicate which triggers from the list below apply.

Does a Design Basis Threat exist per UFC 4-020-

01 for more than minimum level of protection? If Yes, indicate required Level of

Protection or that minimum stds apply.

The Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) system is prescribed by MIL-STD 3007, to provide planning, design, construction, sustainment, restoration, and modernization criteria, and to apply to the Military Departments, the Defense Agencies, and the DoD Field Activities in accordance with DoD Directive

4270.5 (Military Construction) and USD(AT&L) Memorandum dated 29 May 2002. UFC 4-010-01 are minimum standards set for DoD funded projects unless otherwise determined during project planning by the Installation using UFC 4-020-01.

DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Construction Standards - Checklist version 4 dated 2 May 2019

Date:

TRIGGERS

D. BUILDING ADDITIONS: Inhabited additions to existing buildings must comply with the minimum standards for new buildings. If the addition is 50% or more of the gross area of the existing building, the existing building will comply with the minimum standards for existing buildings in Chapter 3. Cost of building additions will not be included in calculating the 50% trigger for major investments. Throughout these standards references to new construction will be considered to be inclusive of additions to existing buildings.

E. LEASED BUILDINGS: In accordance with DoD Instruction 2000.12, the security standards established by the Interagency Security Committee (ISC) in

Physical Security Criteria for Federal Facilities must apply to all off-installation leased space managed by DoD and all DoD occupied space in buildings owned or operated by the U.S. General Services Administration (GSA). The ISC standards apply to leased space in the U.S. and in foreign countries.

Current tenants and tenants who initiated lease requests prior to 7 December 2012 must apply the ISC standards in accordance with existing lease agreements to the extent practicable.

F. PURCHASE OF EXISTING BLDGS: Existing inhabited buildings purchased for use by DoD will comply with the minimum standards for existing buildings.

A. MAJOR INVESTMENT: Implementation of these standards to bring entire inhabited buildings into compliance is mandatory for all DoD building renovations, modifications, repairs, revitalizations, and restorations where project costs exceed 50% of the replacement cost of the existing building in accordance with UFC 3-701-01 except as otherwise stated in these standards. The 50% cost is exclusive of the costs identified to meet these standards.

Where costs do not exceed the 50% threshold, compliance with these standards is recommended, but not required.

B. CHANGE OF OCCUPANCY: Implementation of these standards is mandatory when any building or portion of a building is converted from its current occupancy to a higher occupancy. Examples would include a warehouse (low occupancy) being converted to administrative (inhabited) use.

C. WINDOW/SKYLIGHT/GLAZED DOOR REPLACEMENT: Because of the significance of glazing hazards in a blast environment, implementation of all provisions of Standard 10 is mandatory for existing inhabited buildings any time a window, skylight, or glazing is being replaced. This also applies to installation of supplemental windows behind existing windows (inside face) and to installations of windows in new openings. Because of the significance of door hazards in a blast environment, implementation of all provisions of Standard 12 is mandatory for existing inhabited buildings any time doors are being replaced.

UFC Para# REQUIREMENT YES NO N/A DESIGNER RESPONSES

STANDARD 2 - UNOBSTRUCTED SPACE

STANDARDS 1-21

G. NON-DoD TENANT BUILDINGS ON DoD INSTALLATIONS: Tenant buildings on DoD installations other than those that meet one of the exemptions below are required to comply with these standards because it is assumed that the tenant buildings are likely to be turned over to DoD sometime during their design life and that they will then be occupied by DoD personnel. For the purposes of these standards, occupancies for non-DoD tenant-built building will be calculated assuming that building occupants are DoD personnel.

H. NATIONAL GUARD BUILDINGS: National Guard buildings that use Federal funding for new construction, renovations, modifications, repairs, or restorations that meet the applicability provisions above, will comply with these standards.

I. VISITOR CENTERS AND MUSEUMS: Where DoD or non-DoD visitors to visitor centers, museums, and similar buildings on DoD property routinely increase the occupancy of those buildings to levels meeting the definition of inhabited buildings, those buildings will comply with these standards.

J. VISITOR CONTROL CENTERS AT ENTRY CONTROL FACILITIES / ACCESS CONTROL POINTS : Where DoD personnel and the average daily peak occupancy of visitors routinely increase the occupancy of those buildings to levels meeting the definition of inhabited buildings, those buildings will comply with these standards. See UFC 4-022-01 for average daily occupancy calculation.

K. EXPEDITIONARY STRUCTURES: Implementation of these minimum standards is mandatory for all expeditionary structures that meet the occupancy criteria for inhabited buildings. See Chapter 4 for structure types that meet the expeditionary structures criteria.

New Structures: These standards apply to all new expeditionary structures effective as of the implementation date of these standards.

Existing Structures: These standards will apply to all existing expeditionary structures as they undergo major modifications or renovations as of the implementation date of these standards.
