Description:
The Fort Benning Warriors in Transition Complex – Soldier Family Assistance Center and the Battalion and Company Headquarters are two separate buildings that were combined as one task order as a design build project with the Osborne Company, Inc., CJMW Architecture and Crenshaw Consulting Engineers team for the USACE. The first building is a two-story, 26,700 SF building that was designed as the first floor to be used as the Battalion Headquarters and the second floor the Company Headquarters. The second building is a single story, 15,000 SF, building designed
for the Fort Benning SoldierFamily AssistanceCenter. Both buildings are steel structure with brick veneers, the materials are sustainable, durable, and cost effective in comparison to other materials and will give the government value along with achieving the goals to meet the 25 year useful design life and 50 year replacement life.
The Battalion and Company Headquarters building is comprised of private offices, open office areas, a Telecommunications room, a SIPRNet (Secret Internet Protocol Router Network) room, and training/conference rooms. TheSoldier Family AssistanceCenter is comprised of private offices, a telecommunications room, full service
child care facilities, a camera room (housing security equipment for the daycare facility), a computer work room for military personnel and their family members to use, and a large lobby/lounge area for the families. Both buildings were designed to LEED Silver and AT/FP specifications. Models were provided using Bentley BIM. The HVAC systems for these buildings are comprised of a four-pipe boiler/chiller system, with one chiller plant for both buildings and a separate boiler for each building. Integrated into this system is a Dedicated Outdoor Air System (DOAS), which pre-conditions outdoor air prior to introduction into the air handlers. The air handlers are variable air volume (VAV) with reheat boxes throughout the building to maximize efficiency.
