This document sets standards for identification, direction, regulation, motivation and information signs; street address signs; base destination signs; parking regulation signs; and interior
signs. The criteria introduced in this document are intended for implementation at all Air Force installations. Implementation is subject to funding priorities, mission objectives and MAJCOM coordination. MAJCOMs are encouraged to adopt these standards, but do have the authority to
adjust them to meet their own objectives for design and compatibility, using the standard colors listed in paragraph 2.18. This authority does not, however, apply to the portion of these criteria which are based on such national standards as the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD), the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG), and the Uniform Federal Accessibility Standards (UFAS). The ADAAG, UFAS, and the Federal Highway Administration’s MUTCD are national standards for sign design and placement. The MUTCD is the authority for all traffic control devices on Air Force installations.

LID employs a variety of natural and built features that reduce the rate of runoff, filter out its pollutants, and facilitate the infiltration of water into the ground. By reducing water pollution and increasing groundwater recharge, LID helps to improve the quality of receiving surface waters and stabilize the flow rates of nearby streams.

UFC 3-220-01N, UNIFIED FACILITIES CRITERIA (UFC) GEOTECHNICAL ENGINEERING PROCEDURES FOR FOUNDATION DESIGN OF BUILDINGS AND STRUCTURES (15 AUG 2005)., PURPOSE: This UFC presents guidance for selecting and designing foundations for buildings and facilities of all types and associated features for buildings such as earth embankments and slopes, retaining structures, and machinery foundations. Foundations for hydraulic structures are not included; however, foundations design methods for piers, wharves and waterfront structures are covered. Foundation design differs considerably from design of other elements of a structure because of the interaction between the structure and the supporting medium (soil and rock). The soil and rock medium are highly variable as compared to steel and concrete products above the soil; therefore, much attention is given to presenting subsurface investigation methods to better determine the properties of the soil and rock. The seismic aspects of foundation design are presented in detail.
SCOPE: Information contained in this UFC is directed toward construction usually undertaken on military reservations, although it is sufficiently general to permit its use on a wide variety of construction projects. Some of the references are directed toward highway construction, but are also general enough to be applied to any construction foundation items. Effort has been made to refer the user to as many non-government standards as possible, when they appear to cover the topics as well as the former manuals or provide new and innovative methods for the design of foundations on soil and rock. Where there are no non-government criteria or insufficient coverage of the topic in the non-government criteria, the existing government criteria from either the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or Naval Facilities Engineering Command publications are either referenced or have been inserted totally in the document.

UFC 3-240-13FN, UNIFIED FACILITIES CRITERIA (UFC) INDUSTRIAL WATER TREATMENT OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE (25 MAY 2005)., This UFC provides an overview of industrial water treatment operations and management. As used in this UFC, the term “industrial water” refers to the water used in military power generation, heating, air conditioning, refrigeration, cooling, processing, and all other equipment and systems that require water for operation. Industrial water is not the same as potable water. Industrial water is never consumed or used under situations that require a high degree of sanitation. Industrial water requires water preparation or chemical treatment, or both, to avoid the problems described in paragraph 1-1.2. Water preparation and chemical treatment requirements are described in Chapters 2 through 5 according to the type of system in question. The Navy has special uses for shore-to-ship steam. The Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEASYSCOM) shore-to-ship steam purity standards are described in Chapter 3. Examples of industrial water systems and their uses are:
• Steam Boiler Systems. (See Chapter 3.) Steam uses include space and hot water heating, sterilization, humidification, indirect food processing, and power generation.
• Cooling Water Systems. (See Chapter 4.) Cooling water is used in cooling towers, evaporative coolers, evaporative condensers, and once-through systems. Applications are broad, ranging from simple refrigeration to temperature regulation of nuclear reactors.
• Closed Water Systems. (See Chapter 5.) These include closed hot water, closed chilled water, and diesel jacket systems.

UFC 3-430-11, BOILER CONTROL SYSTEMS (14 FEB 2001)., This document provides criteria for the design of heating plant instrumentation. A heating plant contains one or more boilers. The plant may be an individual plant serving a single building or a compact group of buildings, or a central plant serving many buildings and facilities through an extensive distribution system. The heating plant instrumentation discussed is, in general, for a saturated steam power boiler heating plant. The typical saturated-steam power boiler heating plant discussed will operate at a design steam pressure of between 1.03 bar (15 psig) and 20.68 bar (300 psig), with a heating capacity of greater than 422 megajoule/h (400,000 Btu/h). The information provided may also be applicable to Low, Medium, and High Temperature Hot Water heating plants, but does not cover all of the requirements of those plants, such as control of water pressurization and circulation systems. The information may also be applicable to superheated-steam power plants, but does not cover the all of the requirements of those plants, such as steam extraction, reheating, steam turbine control, and cooling water controls. Instrumentation is a rapidly changing field. The options available in choosing and designing plant instrumentation are numerous. A boiler plant includes a large number of instrument items, all of which have to be specified in the procurement of a boiler plant. This handbook does not attempt to cover all details. Rather, its purpose is to present general guidelines for selecting and designing instrumentation for boiler plants.

UFC 3-600-01, FIRE PROTECTION ENGINEERING FOR FACILITIES (26 SEPT 2006)., SCOPE: This UFC establishes fire protection engineering policy and criteria for Department of Defense (DOD) components. The provisions of this UFC are applicable to all new and existing DOD facilities located on or outside of DOD installations, whether acquired or leased, by appropriated or non-appropriated funds, or third party financed and constructed. Facilities covered by this document include all types of buildings and their contents, structures, whether considered temporary or permanent, mobile and stationary equipment, waterfront facilities, outside storage, and shore protection for ships and aircraft. Matters relating to fire department operations, staffing, and equipment are not covered by this UFC.
PURPOSE: The purpose of this UFC is to establish minimum protection requirements for DOD facilities. These criteria are based on commercial requirements set forth by national insurance underwriters and may exceed minimum national code requirements. The requirements in this UFC reflect the need for the protection of life, mission, and property (building or contents) while taking into account the costs of implementing the criterion and risks associated with the facility. These criteria have been established in the best interest of DOD.
