Helping to amalgamate the Department of National Defence’s chain of command and fleet/equipment management functions
Completed for the Department of National Defence, this project included the development of a large airfield support vehicle maintenance facility to house the integrated operations of the Electrical/Mechanical Engineering and Transportation Squadrons at CFB Trenton. Previously, these services resided in several scattered buildings. The goal? A modern facility that would consolidate all services into one new, specialized building while also providing a safer, more efficient facility for staff.
As the prime consultant, we provided all architectural and engineering design services for concept validation, design development, documents, and services during construction. The main facility includes a 46-bay maintenance area with multiple service reels, lifts and hoists, and an enclosed 40-bay vehicle parking area. Ancillary support spaces include machine shop, tire repair, electronics shops, equipment repair, engine repair, welding, and textile repair shops. Additional functions accommodated include tool crib, parts warehouse, wash bays, body repair, and paint booth.
With this consolidated maintenance facility, squadron personnel are supported by everything they need to conduct vehicle maintenance as well as a central two-level building component that includes offices, classrooms, cafeteria, locker rooms, a physical fitness room, and meeting rooms.
