About Entry Control Facilities/Access Control Points: UFC

UFC 4-022-01 UPDATED and just released 27 JULY 2017This UFC presents a unified approach to the design of Entry Control Facilities (ECFs). The term “Entry Control Facilities” encompasses the overall layout, organization, infrastructure, and facilities of an entry control point or access control point. ECF is synonymous with the term Access Control Point (ACP) used in some Service publications. This UFC identifies design features necessary to ensure that infrastructure constructed today will have the flexibility to support future technologies, a changing threat environment, and changes in operations.Commanders, security personnel, planners, designers, architects, and engineers should use this UFC when designing primary and secondary ECFs of an installation. A limited-use ECF, which is open only occasionally, may not require the same level of infrastructure. Technical information considered generally known to professional designers, architects, or engineers or readily available in existing technical references (Unified Facility Criteria, Military Handbooks, Technical Manuals, etc.) has not been included.This UFC is one of a series of security engineering Unified Facilities Criteria that cover 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 this series include the following:o DoD Minimum Antiterrorism Standards for Buildings.o Security Engineering Facilities Planning Manual.o Security Engineering Facilities Design Manual.o Security Engineering Support Manuals.UFC 4-022-01 falls into the category of an “engineering support manual”. Includes a list of applicable NIST cybersecurity publications for consideration.
