Fuel Cell Maintenance Hangar
The project consisted of three buildings; a 10,000 square foot Armament Shop, a 32,000 square foot Fuel Cell Maintenance Hangar for C-130's, and a 3,800 square foot repair shop addition to an existing Corrosion Control Facility.

These three projects were delivered under a design-build contract with K.L. House Construction for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Albuquerque District on a very congested site.
The H/MC-130 Fuel Cell Maintenance Hangar provides space to support recapitalization, new mission training, and aircraft for HC-130 and MC-130. This one-story facility has a hangar bay sized for the H/MC-130 aircraft, offices, and locker rooms.
Additionally, the project includes an addition to an existing Corrosion Control Facility for repair of composite components associated with the legacy H/MC-130 to the newer J-model H/MC-130. This facility includes a clean space, dirty room, transition room, and facility support infrastructure space.
The Armament Shop includes a weapons vault, office, administration, training, and workshop areas.
All three facilities are LEED Silver Certified.
