This project constructs a multi-story concrete masonry unit (CMU) and metal panel construction building on pile foundation with reinforced concrete slab, structural steel framing, reinforced masonry walls, brick veneer, and standing seam metal roof. The new building will be an F-35B Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Training Squadron and legacy compliant aircraft maintenance hangar consisting of high bay space, crew and equipment space, administrative space, and data network areas.

The hangar administration space includes a special access program facility (SAPF) areas for secured handling/storage of classified material/components up to top secret classification and pilot brief and debrief rooms. The hangar includes a Special Access Program Facility (SAPF) and SIPRNET.

The Operational support facility is a veneered, CMU structure with reinforced concrete foundation, structural steel roof framing and standing seam metal roof for F-35B alternate mission equipment storage.

The Shop Annex will be adjacent to the Hangar and will be used as flexible, open shops space opening directly to exterior apron areas.

Due to site restrictions, ground level parking is not feasible; therefore, the project includes a multi-level, reinforced concrete, parking facility of approximately 400 spaces.

The completion time for this contract is 925 calendar days after award.
