UFC will be used for all DoD projects and work for other customers where appropriate. UFC are living documents and will be periodically reviewed, updated, and made available to users as part of the Services responsibility for providing technical CRITERIA for military construction.

3 Headquarters, Army Corps of Engineers (HQUSACE), Naval FACILITIES Engineering Command (NAVFAC), and Air Force Civil Engineer Support Agency (AFCESA) are responsible for administration of the UFC system. Defense agencies should contact the preparing service for document interpretation and improvements. Technical content of UFC is the responsibility of the cognizant DoD working group. Recommended changes with supporting rationale should be sent to the respective service proponent office by the following electronic form: CRITERIA Change Request (CCR). The form is also accessible from the Internet sites listed below.

5 Document Description and Need: Purpose: This UFC provides a UNIFIED approach for the design, selection, and installation of SECURITY fences, gates, and guard FACILITIES associated with Department of Defense (DoD) FACILITIES . Application and Use: Commanders, SECURITY personnel, planners, designers, architects, and engineers should use this UFC when evaluating existing and providing new SECURITY fencing, gates, and guard FACILITIES for the installation perimeter as required. That design CRITERIA should be developed using the risk and threat analysis process in UFC 4-020-01. CRITERIA in this UFC apply to FACILITIES that require perimeter boundaries and/or restricted area enclosures based on current Service policies, location of facility, and threat level.

6 SECURITY specialists shall provide all risk and threat assessments. This UFC is intended to be used in performing detailed design of countermeasures previously identified during preliminary design using UFC 4-020-02. Need: This UFC is one in a series of SECURITY engineering UNIFIED FACILITIES CRITERIA that address minimum standards, planning, preliminary design, and detailed design for SECURITY and antiterrorism. The manuals in this series are designed to be used sequentially by a diverse audience to facilitate development of projects throughout the design cycle. The manuals in the SECURITY engineering series include the following: o UFC 4-010-01: DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings o UFC 4-020-01: DoD SECURITY Engineering FACILITIES Planning Manual o UFC 4-020-02: DoD SECURITY Engineering FACILITIES Design Manual o SECURITY Engineering Support Manuals more specifically with UFC 4-022-01: SECURITY Engineering Entry Control Points/Access Control Points and UFC 4-022-02: Selection and Design of Vehicle Barriers.

7 This UFC is one of the SECURITY engineering support manuals, and as such is intended to be used to refine preliminary designs developed using UFC 4-020-02, . Impact: The following will result from publication of this UFC: The approach to designing fences, gates and guard FACILITIES will be standardized among the Services. Separate Service manuals that included conflicting guidance will be disestablished. Use of this manual will not result in any adverse impacts on environmental, sustainability, or constructability policies or practices.
