APPLICABILITY. These standards apply to all DoD Components, to all
DoD inhabited buildings, billeting, and high occupancy family housing, and to all DoD
expeditionary and temporary structures in accordance with the following:
1-6.1
New Construction. Implementation of these standards is mandatory for
all new construction regardless of funding source in accordance with the following:
1-6.1.1
Military Construction (MILCON). These standards apply to MILCON
projects starting with the Fiscal Year 2004 Program. Projects programmed or designed
under the Interim DoD Antiterrorism / Force Protection Construction Standards do not
have to be reprogrammed or redesigned to meet the requirements of these standards.
The provisions of the Interim Standards will apply to those projects. Due to minor
changes between these standards and the Interim Standards, projects prior to the
Fiscal Year 2004 Program should comply with these standards where possible.
1-6.1.2
Host-Nation and Other Foreign Government Funding. These
standards apply to new construction funded under host-nation agreements or from other
funding sources starting in Fiscal Year 2004 or as soon as negotiations with the foreign
governments can be completed.
1-6.1.3
Other Funding Sources. These standards apply to all new construction
projects funded by sources other than MILCON (such as Non-Appropriated Funds,
Operations and Maintenance, and Working Capital Funds) starting with Fiscal Year
2004. Projects funded prior to that fiscal year should comply with these standards
where possible.
1-6.2
Existing Buildings. These standards will apply to existing facilities
starting with the Fiscal Year 2004 program when triggered as specified below,
regardless of funding source. Projects funded prior to that fiscal year should comply
with these standards where possible. For existing leased buildings see paragraph 1-
6.4.
1-6.2.1
Major Investments. Implementation of these standards to bring an entire
building into compliance is mandatory for all DoD building renovations, modifications,
repairs, and restorations where those costs exceed 50% of the replacement cost of the
building except as otherwise stated in these standards. The 50% cost is exclusive of
the costs identified to meet these standards. Where the 50% threshold is not met,
compliance with these standards is recommended.
1-6.2.2
Conversion of Use. Implementation of these standards is mandatory
when any portion of a building is modified from its current use to that of an inhabited
building, billeting, high occupancy family housing, or a primary gathering building for
one year or more. Examples would include a warehouse (low occupancy) being
converted to administrative (inhabited) use and an inhabited administrative building
being converted to a primary gathering building or billeting.
