Challenge: To design and construct four one-hour fire rated modular office systems that would maximize work space, while preserving valuable floor space in the base hangers. The structures had to be weathertight, placed on uneven floors, and capable of withstanding 50 mph wind loads. The systems also had to meet the Air Force’s tight time constraints for construction.

Solution: Panel Built met with Air Force personnel to understand their goals and special needs for this project. Several building options were submitted. After some modifications, a three story in-plant system was designed that met all of their requirements.

Panel Built Delivers: Panel Built provided stamped and engineered drawings and had the first system in place within six weeks, including demolition of an existing structure and pouring a concrete slab for the base.

Project Specs: 24’x38’ x 31’4” high three story in-plant office system with HVAC, sprinkler system and fire alarm. Custom powder coated IBC stair system with three landings.
