16 January 2004 FOREWORD

The Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) system is prescribed by MIL-STD 3007 and provides

planning, design, construction, sustainment, restoration, and modernization criteria, and applies

to the Military Departments, the Defense Agencies, and the DoD Field Activities in accordance with USD(AT&L) Memorandum dated 29 May 2002 UFC will be used for all DoD projects and work for other customers where appropriate All construction outside of the United States is

also governed by Status of forces Agreements (SOFA), Host Nation Funded Construction

Agreements (HNFA), and in some instances, Bilateral Infrastructure Agreements (BIA.)

Therefore, the acquisition team must ensure compliance with the more stringent of the UFC, the SOFA, the HNFA, and the BIA, as applicable

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 Headquarters, U.S 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

UFC are effective upon issuance and are distributed only in electronic media from the following source:

Hard copies of UFC printed from electronic media should be checked against the current electronic version prior to use to ensure that they are current

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

1-1 PURPOSE AND SCOPE This UFC is comprised of two sections

Chapter 1 introduces this UFC and provides a listing of references to other Tri-Service documents closely related to the subject Appendix A contains the full text copy of the previously released Military Handbook (MIL-HDBK) on this subject This UFC serves as criteria until such time as the full text UFC is developed from the MIL-HDBK and other sources

This UFC provides general criteria for the design of diesel electric generating plants

Note that this document does not constitute a detailed technical design, maintenance or operations manual, and is issued as a general guide to the

considerations associated with design of economical, efficient and environmentally acceptable heating plants

1-2 APPLICABILITY This UFC applies to all Navy service elements and

Navy contractors; Army and Air Force service elements should use the appropriate references cited in paragraph 1-3 below; all other DoD agencies may use either

document unless explicitly directed otherwise

1-2.1 GENERAL BUILDING REQUIREMENTS All DoD facilities must comply

with UFC 1-200-01, Design: General Building Requirements If any conflict occurs

between this UFC and UFC 1-200-01, the requirements of UFC 1-200-01 take

precedence

1-2.2 SAFETY All DoD facilities must comply with DODINST 6055.1 and

applicable Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) safety and health standards

NOTE: All NAVY projects, must comply with OPNAVINST 5100.23 (series), Navy

Occupational Safety and Health Program Manual

If any conflict occurs between this UFC and OPNAVINST 5100.23, the requirements of OPNAVINST 5100.23 take precedence

1-2.3 FIRE PROTECTION All DoD facilities must comply with UFC 3-600-01,

Design: Fire Protection Engineering for Facilities If any conflict occurs between this

UFC and UFC 3-600-01, the requirements of UFC 3-600-01 take precedence

1-2.4 ANTITERRORISM/FORCE PROTECTION All DoD facilities must

comply with UFC 4-010-01, Design: DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for

Buildings If any conflict occurs between this UFC and UFC 4-010-01, the requirements

of UFC 4-010-01 take precedence

ABSTRACT

This handbook provides basic design guidance which has been developed from extensive reevaluation of facilities It is intended for use by

experienced architects and engineers The criteria presented is for the design of stationary diesel-electric generating plants for prime and

standby/emergency duty Planning factors are provided for plants

incorporating the cogeneration of steam and/or hot-water for other uses Changes required for utility interconnections, equipment applications and the types of waste-heat recovery cycles available for cogeneration are also provided Data and criteria required for design of diesel-electric

generating plants include information on the service category and the types

of diesel prime movers, generators and utility interfaces available, sources

of power and fuels available, other plant location factors, advantages and disadvantages of various plant ownership options, and electrical and thermal loads anticipated Design criteria are included for diesel-engine

auxiliaries and foundations, voltage ratings, generators and exciters,

control wiring and components, piping, insulation, corrosion protection, and for various other design factors Guidance is provided to assist in the design of different types of plant construction and of nonstandard plants.
