10 DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION Pre-engineered metal building, concrete floor slab and foundations and roof system; relocatable interior partitions; all alterations required to accommodate building addition; concrete apron and paved shoulder, conveyor covers and enclosed walkway; utility relocations. Includes air cargo processing area, administration, cold storage, sensitive cargo/small arms security area, docks, cargo aircraft parking apron, support space and utilities. Air Conditioning 10 Tons. 11. REQUIREMENT: 149,495 SF. ADEQUATE: 82,995 SF. SUBSTANDARD: 0 SF. PROJECT: An addition to the existing air freight processing facility. REQUIREMENT: The Oklahoma City Air Logistics Center (OC-ALC) provides dire ect weapon systems support to CONUS and overseas locations and contingency operations worldwide. A facility is required to support off-loading, handling, processing and loading large cargo aircraft and surface vehicles Additional space and mechanized materials handling equipment are required

for minimum turn-around time.

CURRENT SITUATION: OC-ALC/MAC now use a terminal built for non-mechanized air freight handling. Low ceilings, close column spacing and total floor space are not adequate to process today's air cargo. In July 1977, five additional direct-channel flights to Europe were added and increased the daily workload from 155 tons to 214 tons with the increased workload being processed outside. Outside conveyor systems used for temporary storage are not covered which exposes cargo to the elements. During inclement weather outside processing stops and backlogs are created. Limited material handl ing systems causes multiple handling and processing delays. Project amor

tizes in five years.

IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED: The OC-ALC will not be able to provide the daily and worldwide contingency support for various weapons systems.

DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CONSTRUCTION Masonry walls, concrete floor slab and foundations, structural steel frame and roof system. Includes applied enengineering experimental research laboratories (electro-optical, data transmission, control systems, flight simulator environmental electromagnetic protection, etc.); computer processing center and engineering data analysis area; administration support space and utilities.

REQUIREMENT: 162,645 SF. Adequate: 70,145 SF. Substandard: 32,565 SF PROJECT: Construction of the final increment of a flight control development laboratory.

REQUIREMENT: Facilities of adequate size and functional configuration with sufficient environmental controls are required to accommodate scientists and engineers engaged in the development and testing of flight control systems to insure safe and reliable aircraft operations under all flight conditions. This work includes the use of computerized simulators in the area of flight stability and handling, all-weather landing capabilities, and cockpit and instrument panel development. Flight control technology is the key to the success of all weapon systems since it is the catalyst that molds the crew, the aircraft, the avionics and ordnance into an effective, efficient, and complementary system.

CURRENT SITUATION: The laboratory activities to be consolidated in the East Wing are currently located in facilities which are structurally and environmentally inadequate to support the technical research required to keep the Air Force competitive with the air power of other countries. IMPACT IF NOT PROVIDED: Without this facility, in-house flight control engineering expertise will be unable to properly validate and support the weapon system development-design process.
