Fort Drum Warrios in Transition Complex - The Solder Family Assistance Center and The Battalion Head Quarters - LEED Silver
Location:
Fort Drum, NY
Size:
15,000 SF
8,100 SF
Services:
Plumbing, Mechanical, Electrical, Fire Alarm, and Telecommunications Engineering Designs
Description:
Fort Drum Warriors in Transition Complex - The Soldier Family Assistance Center and the Battalion Head Quarters are two separate single story buildings in this complex 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 BnHQ is approximately 8,100 SF and the SFAC is approximately 15,000 SF. Both of the buildings are brick veneer over steel structure. 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 buildings were designed to AT/FP requirements and to LEED Silver rating. Bentley BIM (Building Information Modeling) was provided.
The Battalion Head Quarters building consists of private offices, a SIPRNet (Secret Internet Protocol Router Network) room, Telecommunications room, large training/conference room, and some open office areas. The Soldier Family Assistance Center 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. The HVAC system was designed to tie into an existing geothermal well field utilizing a water source heat pump to provide a highly efficient source of heating and cooling. A condensing boiler system was utilized to pre-treat the outside air, provide radiant floor heating and a snow melting system. System design and installation are critical to obtain optimum boiler efficiency. All of the hot water systems were designed with Glycol freeze protection to protect against temperatures to 20 below zero.
