Description: This UFC provides criteria for planning and design of Aircraft Maintenance Hangars for the aircraft of the combined DoD United States Armed Forces. Reasons for Document: This is a new Joint Service document. This new document represents another step in the Joint Services effort to bring uniformity to the planning, design and construction of military facilities. The UFC was developed to provide design requirements to accomplish the following: • Assist planners in understanding the facility requirements to ensure accurate space programs budgets. • Provide architects, engineers, and construction surveillance personnel with essential, minimum (min) requirements for the design and construction of Aircraft Maintenance Hangars. • Clarify the operational intent of the facility design. Impact: The following will result from the publication of this UFC: • This UFC creates a single source for common DoD Aircraft Maintenance Hangar criteria and an accurate reference to individual Service-specific documents. • This UFC facilitates updates and revisions and promotes agreement and uniformity of design and construction between the Services. Unification Issues: Non-unified content is mainly a result of operational differences among the ServicesCANCELLED and is addressed in the Service-specific chapters including: • The Navy included Functional Data Sheets (FDS) in this UFC. The Army keeps their Room Data Sheets with the Army Standard and the Air Force keeps these specific requirements with their Dynamic Prototypes. • The Army and Navy perform fuel cell operations in the Aircraft Maintenance Bay per operational guidelines. The Air Force has specific construction criteria for the design of fuel cell maintenance hangars.

It is of special interest in that it was designed by the Construction Division of the Quartermaster Corps, which performed military construction activities until transfer of this responsibility to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in 1941. Originally constructed in 1932 at the then-named Chicago Municipal Airport as a simple utilitarian steel structure, the hangar evolved into a barracks and multi-functional structure for Army use with the construction of three additions. Simple brick additions to the west were completed in 1933 and 1934. In 1938, the east wing was completed, adding a significant architectural character to the structure. This addition was designed in a simplified Art Deco style, with rectilinear, stepped brick massing and linear limestone ornamentation. The hangar represents the era of the 1930s and 1940s, when Chicago Municipal Airport served the needs of civilian and military air transport. After World War II, and following its acquisition by the City of Chicago, the hangar was used principally for storage.

  • Deck Runoff NOD, Phase I Uniform National Discharge Standards For
    This document is part of Appendix A, Deck Runoff: Nature of Discharge for the “Phase I Final Rule and Technical Development Document of Uniform National Discharge Standards (UNDS),” published in April 1999. The reference number is EPA-842-R-99-001. Phase I Final Rule and Technical Development Document of Uniform National Discharge Standards (UNDS) Appendix A Deck Runoff: Nature of Discharge April 1999 NATURE OF DISCHARGE REPORT Deck Runoff 1.0 INTRODUCTION The National Defense Authorization Act of 1996 amended Section 312 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act (also known as the Clean Water Act (CWA)) to require that the Secretary of Defense and the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) develop uniform national discharge standards (UNDS) for vessels of the Armed Forces for “...discharges, other than sewage, incidental to normal operation of a vessel of the Armed Forces, ...” [Section 312(n)(1)]. UNDS is being developed in three phases. The first phase (which this report supports), will determine which discharges will be required to be controlled by marine pollution control devices (MPCDs)—either equipment or management practices. The second phase will develop MPCD performance standards. The final phase will determine the design, construction, installation, and use of MPCDs. A nature of discharge (NOD) report has been prepared for each of the discharges that has been identified as a candidate for regulation under UNDS. The NOD reports were developed based on information obtained from the technical community within the Navy and other branches of the Armed Forces with vessels potentially subject to UNDS, from information available in existing technical reports and documentation, and, when required, from data obtained from discharge samples that were collected under the UNDS program.

  • Airship Logistics Centres: the 6 Th Mode of Transport
    Presented at the Canadian Transportation Research Forum . Toronto, ON, May 30- June 2, 2010 Published in the 45 th Annual Meeting Proceedings (2010): 413-427. AIRSHIP LOGISTICS CENTRES: THE 6 TH MODE OF TRANSPORT ∗ Blair Sherwood and Barry E. Prentice Introduction Contrary to public perception, airship development did not terminate with the Hindenburg accident, some 83 years ago. Airships have operated continuously since that time, albeit in small numbers, and developers continue to invest in new materials, designs, propulsion and computerized control systems. The major investment gap of the airship industry is ground-based infrastructure. Many industrialized countries retain a legacy of military airship hangars, but Canada has no infrastructure to support the development of an airship industry. Ironically, the country that stands to gain the most from lighter-than- air technology is the least prepared to attract it. Approximately 70 percent of Canada’s surface area is inaccessible most of the year. All-season, low cost airships could open the Canadian hinterland to economic development. Moreover, airships could address growing concerns about Canadian sovereignty in the Arctic. Airships, which can fly anywhere with minimal infrastructure, are ideal for serving Canada’s vast northern transportation needs. Airships could also be valuable to Canada as a trading nation. As airships get larger, they become more competitive for long distance transport. Like ships of the ocean, airships enjoy increasing economies of size. A doubling of the airship’s dimensions could quadruple its cargo capacity. Once airships are large enough to cross oceans economically, international trade will become their primary market (Prentice et al, 2005).

  • Navy DDG-1000 Destroyer Program: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress
    Order Code RL32109 Navy DDG-1000 Destroyer Program: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress Updated February 27, 2008 Ronald O’Rourke Specialist in National Defense Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Navy DDG-1000 Destroyer Program: Background, Oversight Issues, and Options for Congress Summary The Navy is procuring a new kind of destroyer called the DDG-1000 (formerly the DD(X)). Navy plans call for procuring a total of seven DDG-1000s. The first two DDG-1000s were procured in FY2007 using split funding (i.e., incremental funding) across FY2007 and FY2008. The Navy estimates their combined procurement cost at $6,325 million. The Navy wants to procure the third DDG-1000 in FY2009; the Navy estimates its procurement cost at $2,653 million. The ship received $150 million in advance procurement funding in FY2008, and the Navy’s proposed FY2009 budget requests the remaining $2,503 million. The Navy’s proposed FY2009 budget also requests $51 million in advance procurement funding for the fourth DDG-51, which the Navy wants to procure in FY2010. The DDG-1000 program raises several potential oversight issues for Congress, including the accuracy of Navy cost estimates for the program, technical risk and system integration, the acquisition strategy for the third and subsequent ships in the program, the shared-production arrangement for the program, and the program’s potential implications for the shipbuilding industrial base. Potential options for Congress for the DDG-1000 program include supporting the Navy’s proposed plans, using a block-buy arrangement for procuring several DDG-1000s, and curtailing procurement of DDG-1000s, perhaps to help fund the procurement of other Navy ships.

  • Hangar 1 Moffett Field Naval Air Station Historic American
    HANGAR 1, NAS MOFFETT FIELD HAER No. CA-335 (PAGE 1) HANGAR1 NAS MOFFETT FIEID Location: Hangar 1 is located on the property of the former Naval Air Station Moffett Field (NAS Moffett Field). The property is presently part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Ames Research Center at Moffett Field. Moffett Field is located between the cities of Mountain View and Sunnyvale, Santa Clara County, California. Present Owner: NASA Present Use: Vacant Significance: The following Statement of Significance is excerpted from the July 1994 National Register nomination for NAS Moffett Field (formerly NAS Sunnyvale) prepared by Bonnie Bamburg of Urban Programmers of San Jose, California: "In the nation's quest to provide security for the lengthy expanse of its coastlines the opportunity for air reconnaissance was realized by the futuristic Admiral William A. Moffett. Through his efforts, two Naval Air Stations were commissioned in the early 1930's to port the two U.S. Naval Airships (dirigibles) he believed capable of this challenge. The Naval Air Station Sunnyvale was the Pacific Coast location selected, designed, and developed to port the U.S.S. MACON (ZRS 5). The immense structure, Hangar 1, designed to house the U.S.S. MACON, with its larger counterpart in Akron, Ohio, remain the two largest structures in the United States without internal support. At the onset of WWII, the base was expanded with Hangars 2 and 3 which were designed to accommodate the smaller blimps and balloons used for reconnaissance, until the range of heavier than air aircraft (airplanes) was sufficient to patrol the coast.

  • The Wright Brothers and Early Flight at Kitty Hawk, North Carolina, 1900-1903
    CHAPTER ONE: THE WRIGHT BROTHERS AND EARLY FLIGHT AT KITTY HAWK, NORTH CAROLINA, 1900-1903 BACKGROUND ON CONTEXT The period of significance for this context is based on the span of years that Orville and Wilbur Wright spent on the Outer Banks of North Carolina during their earliest period of experimentation, 1900 to 1903. It was during these years that they worked with gliders and with the first successfully flown, powered aircraft—efforts that culminated in what is now generally recognized as the first powered flight of December 17, 1903. The work of the Wrights’ predecessors is important to an understanding of the Wright brothers’ own successes; however, the primary period of significance is clearly that in which they lived and worked at their Kill Devil Hills camp. The geographical area considered for this context and for the National Register historic district is the approximately 43l-acre site now known as the Wright Brothers National Memorial. The boundary of the park defines the district boundary. The Kill Devil Hills area is an expanse of sand hills located about four miles south of the village of Kitty Hawk, at the edge of Colington Creek and within view of the Atlantic Ocean to the east. Kill Devil Hill, where the Wright brothers’ experiments with gliding occurred, was the highest of the hills, or dunes. Therefore, as Outer Banks historian David Stick emphasized, both appellations “Hill” and “Hills” are appropriate for the site (Stick 1958:267). This study is confined to property owned or managed by NPS‘as the Wright Brothers National Memorial and therefore limited to resources within the boundaries of the park.
