Tri-Service committees called Discipline Working Groups (DWG) prepare the UFGS. Publication of UFGS is only by electronic media available from the distribution sources indicated in the Foreword of this UFC. UFGS are not proprietary and are available at no cost to the user.

Requirements referencing Army, Navy, or Air Force only are applicable where that DoD Component is the construction agent as defined in DoDD 4270.5, and responsible for the preparation of the construction contract drawings and specifications as the designated design and construction agent in executing Military Construction Program responsibilities.
