BLDG 90176 Hangar Door Expansion (HADES)   2

Background
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is soliciting a Design-Bid-Build contract for the expansion of hangar doors at Facility B90176, Fort Hood, Texas. This project aims to support the HADES mission and accommodate the ME-11B (Bombardier Global 6500) aircraft by modifying existing structures to enhance operational capabilities.

Work Details
The project involves significant construction tasks including:

- Replacing two existing hangar doors with single 120-foot-wide rolling sectional doors;
- Making substantial structural modifications to the pre-engineered metal building (PEMB), which includes removing and replacing wind posts, grade beams, spandrel beams, and portions of the concrete slab;
- Extending trench drains and adjusting adjacent man-doors and utility lines;
- Installing higher-capacity motors for new doors;
- Refinishing and restriping affected areas of the hangar floor;
- Making minor partition and finish modifications to meet new flight group requirements;
- Evaluating and potentially replacing fan and motor control centers for existing Big Ass Fans (BAFs).

Extensive structural, fire suppression, and life safety analysis will be required to ensure compliance with relevant codes.
