Renovation of the Thomas P. Stafford Building at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center

The Headquarters Building (HQB) at the MMAC is a 222,130 GST building originally constructed in 1991 and is comprised of a basement and two floors above grade.  The Thomas P. Stafford Building (Building 27) at the Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center (MMAC) in Oklahoma City functions as a state-of-the-art training complex. It houses the FAA Academy, providing advanced classrooms and simulation laboratories for air traffic control and Technical Operations students and instructors. This project will upgrade the aging mechanical and electrical systems serving the building.  Work associated with construction of this project will be done primarily after hours (12:00 am to 6:00 am Monday through Friday) and weekends to prevent disturbance to classes while the building is occupied.

The work required for the facility will include the following:

• Demolition and replacement of 5 knockdown construction semi-custom air handling units with provision for temporary packaged air handling units to continue HVAC service to spaces where the air handing units have been removed until new units have been installed.
• Rebalancing of primary air to fan powered variable air volume boxes served by new air handling units for newly calculated heating and cooling loads.
• Demolition of existing 180-ton chiller, cooling tower, condenser water pumps and associated condenser water piping.
• Demolition and replacement of roof mounted relief air hoods and control dampers and pressure sensors for control of building relief air.
• Demolition and replacement of building smoke evacuation fans and associated air dampers and associated controls.

Provide a Short Circuit Current Review (SCCR) study, an Electrical Protection Device Coordination study, and an Arc-Flash Hazard Analysis (AFHA) study for any new transformers or panelboards added to the building.
• Provide one-line diagrams capturing all revisions associated with electrical work.
• Demolition and replacement of all corridors, entry atriums, and exterior stairs grid and ceiling tiles except for ceiling at second floor above the central atrium.
• Demolition and replacement of all supply diffusers and return grilles in main circulation spaces where lay-in ceilings are to be replaced.

• Demolition and replacement of all the remaining non-LED fixtures in the Common Circulation Areas (i.e. corridors, vestibules, coves, stairs) of the Basement, 1st, and 2nd Floors for both general and egress lighting purposes. This includes demolition and replacement of the existing fluorescent linear strip fixtures containing LED T8 lamps and the replacement of all exit lights/signs with new LED fixtures.

Paint all gypsum wallboard ceilings in corridors and levels above the main entries. Remove circular signage at all doors and paint doors and door frames both sides. Replace with ADA compliant signage next to doors. Replace walk-off grating at all entrances to the building. Replace VCT flooring at all exterior stairwells and at corridor alcoves. Paint all door frames and window framing gray color in place of purple. Replace stair treads at four exterior staircases, new treads to include an abrasive edge to closely match what is installed at interior atrium staircases.
• Provide a complete, code-compliant Emergency Responders Radio Communications System (ERRCS).
• Replace chilled water computer room air conditioning (CRAC) units.
• Demolish existing pre-action fire protection system (all valves, piping and sprinklers) and install new wet pipe fire protection system for the phase one portion of the building.  Demolish and replace all ceiling grid and tiles.
