two-story on a concrete slab with pile foundation. Two clean rooms, compressed air, conditioned ventilation, dual overhead hoist, 227 kg engine lifts, one 1.8 metric ton overhead crane, sound attenuation, two eye washes, oil/water separator, and transformer are included. Naval Aviation Logistics Computer Operations and Maintenance Information System (NALCOMIS) and secure computer line is required. Doors will include two 3.6 m roll-up doors, two 12.1 m sliding doors, one 33.5 m sliding door, and one 3 m roll-up door. A 279 square meter covered concrete pad for engine storage will be attached. The current engine test cell will be relocated. Demolition of LP14, LP11, LP31, LP32, SP10, SP11, SP38, SP66, SP234, SP234a, SP241 and V45 (9,377 Sq m) is included. Special construction features include pile foundation; Anti-Terrorism/Force Protection features are included. The project will consolidate functions that are directly related to REQUIREMENT: An adequate AIM facility is required to consolidate shops which support the AIM Norfolk mission of maintaining the E-2C, C-2A, C-9 aircraft and helicopters. The Navy is changing all heavy transport helicopters from CH-53 to CH-60 Additionally, some of the squadrons have a requirement for classroom space and some squadrons with detachments have a requirement for storage space. The squadrons have been put out of several of these spaces. This project will give them a space in the airfield area. This project will also allow the release of existing adequate space to be used for an auto hobby shop, squadron classrooms and storage, and an anti-mine sled shop for Mine Warfare helicopter squadron in buildings SP312, SP312 and SP123. There is a requirement for 2,769 square meters of sled shop, 1,277 square meters of classroom space and 233 square meters of Form DD 1 Dec 76 1391C Submitted to Congress Page No. 226 (...continued) 302 2. Date 2/12/02 7. Project Number 280 storage space. All of this will be satisfied in SP213, SP312 and SP313. CURRENT SITUATION: AIM is currently located in several buildings, most of which are inadequate. The buildings are scattered around the base and require transportation. The battery shop is one mile from the avionics shop and has suffered from break-in problems due to its remote location. Several of these facilities have been on the demolition list for more than a decade. Many of the buildings are not air-conditioned and do not have the proper air ventilation for industrial equipment. The airframe shop is in an old WWII hangar. This hangar has problems with inadequate electricity, roof, floor and walls. A WWII hangar is also in danger of a wall collapse. The ventilation required in the composite shop, welding shop, and the non-destructive test lab's dark room is marginal and may lead to health problems for workers in these areas. Much of AIM is in a large WWII hangar without walls or sound attentuation, making excessive noise a problem for anyone working in these conditions. A fire protection water main has ruptured under the floor and pushed up the concrete floor so that the administrative offices on the south side of the hangar have been There is not an adequate clean room for hydraulics or a dark room for non-destructive testing. One sand blaster cannot be used because of the lack of ventilation. Leaks in the roofs have caused the loss of some test equipment. The paraloft is located in a building that is also inadequate. condemned. The sled shop is collapsing. The facility is a nearly 50 year old IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED: AIM will continue to experience problems related to electrical shortages and building conditions. The quality of the work will be affected by the inadequate structures where AIM is currently housed. Roof, floor and window problems in LP14 will go unabated, as will the inadequate electrical supply. Continuing to use these facilities risks loss of expensive test equipment due to the continual roof leaks. A broken water main under LP14 will continue to damage the floor. The failure to consolidate AIM will result in lost time spent on traveling to the other departments and loss of efficiency. The avionics shop will continue to work with the battery shop being one mile away. The sled shop and the Form DD 1 Dec 76 1391C Submitted to Congress Page No. 227 life support shops are also a mile away from the other facilities. 12. Supplemental Data: A. Estimated Design Data: (Parametric estimates have been used to develop project costs. Project design conforms to Part II of Military Handbook 1190, Facility Planning and Design guide) B. Equipment associated with this project which will be provided from other appropriations: NONE. Activity POC: MR. ANDY SAMPSON Phone No: (757)-444-4450 Form DD 1 Dec 76 1391C Submitted to Congress Page No. 228 The Deputy Chief of Naval Operations (Fleet Logistics and Readiness) certifies that this project has been considered for joint use potential. Unilateral construction is recommended. The reason for this recommendation is: Mission requirements, operational considerations, and location are incompatible with use by other components. Form DD 1 Dec 76 1391C Submitted to Congress Page No. 229-230 Project will construct bachelor enlisted quarters (BEQ). BEQ will be a multi-story, interior corridor building with structural steel and masonry bearing walls on a pile foundation, slab on grade, brick/block exterior walls, concrete floors, finished interior walls and ceiling, standing-seam Form DD 1 Dec 76 1391 Submitted to Congress (Continued On DD 1391C) Page No. 231 |
