<p style="color:red"><strong>UFGS Release - Master Updated August 15 2024; Posted August 22, 2024</strong></p>
<p>Unified Facilities Guide Specifications (UFGS) are a joint effort of the <a href="http://www.hnc.usace.army.mil/Missions/Engineering/TECHINFO.aspx" target="_blank">U.S. Army Corps of Engineers</a> (USACE), the <a href="/ffc/navy-navfac">Naval Facilities Engineering Systems Command</a> (NAVFAC), and the <a href="http://www.afcec.af.mil/" target="_blank">Air Force Civil Engineer Center</a> (HQ AFCEC). UFGS are for use in specifying construction for the military services.</p>
<p><em>Note: On September 30, 2023, NASA officially withdrew from the UFGS program. <!--All NASA-specific UFGS sections (40) have been removed from the UFGS Master, though some UFGS sections may still include a NASA section reference.--> The final NASA UFGS Master is available on the WBDG at</em> <a href="/ffc/nasa/ufgs-master-specifications" target="_blank">NASA UFGS Master Specifications</a>.</p>
<p>The UFGS are only published in electronic format and are intended to be used with <a href="/additional-resources/tools/specsintact"><strong>SpecsIntact</strong></a> software; SpecsIntact supports the UFGS format. The UFGS Master complies with <a href="/ffc/dod/unified-facilities-criteria-ufc/ufc-1-300-02">UFC 1-300-02</a>.<!-- SpecsIntact supports the UFGS format. SpecsIntact can still open Masters or Jobs created with older versions of the UFGS format.--></p>
<p>Updated UFGS are posted quarterly in February, May, August, and November.<br /><a class="btn btn-info btn-xs" role="button" data-toggle="collapse" href="#collapsedodufgs" aria-expanded="false" aria-controls="collapsedodufgs">Read More</a></p>

<p>UFGS that have been unified for use by all participating agencies have a level 3 or level 4 Section number. The UFGS uses level 5 to identify a single-agency specification. The number "10" is used by USACE, "20" by NAVFAC, and "30" by AFCEC. The order of precedence for selecting UFGS sections for a project is generally:</p>
<ol>
<li>Regional UFGS if required by the contract or published on WBDG</li>
<li>Single-agency UFGS for whom project is being developed</li>
<li>Unified UFGS</li>
<li>UFGS identified as specific to another DoD Service (for DoD projects only)</li>
</ol>
<p>Points of contact and procedures for the development and maintenance of UFGS documents are prescribed in the latest edition of <a href="http://www.wbdg.org/ffc/dod/federal-military-specifications-standards/m…;
<!--<p><strong><a href="/dod/specsintact/software/ufgs-template" target="_blank">Section templates for UFGS</a>:</strong> These templates are provided to assist the user in creating a new section and available in SpecsIntact.</p>-->The UFGS Section Template is now provided in the UFGS Master with each quarterly release and can be found under Tools in the SpecsIntact Explorer.</p>
