11 BLDG DEFICIENCIES Current Work Spaces / Storage Areas: Service Building Sheds Off-site Current Work Spaces are Inadequate Due to: Lack of area per standards Sheds and Service Building subject to tidal flooding Off-site storage impacts mission readiness Service Building lacks elevator Photo Above: Working and Storage space at ANT/WPB Service Building 11

12 CURRENT STATE Spaces are inadequate: Spatially per standards Does not meet current building codes and accessibility standards Subject to tidal flooding Mixed gender workforce Mission capability STA / WPB/ ANT needs: Facilities that meet the needs and objectives of the USCG Flood-resistant construction Critical functions above the first floor Workspaces and Storage Centrally located Built to current codes and standard Elevated above grade to the greatest extent possible Adequate Site Permanent gatehouse Perimeter Fencing 12

13 PROJECT HISTORY & WPB/ANT BUILDING ANALYSIS CAPT JOHN HEALY, P.E. 13

14 Facilities Design & Construction Center (FDCC) About FDCC Provides long-range facility planning, design services, and construction management for new acquisition and major improvements to shore infrastructure. 14

15 PROJECT HISTORY 2000: CG approached MA State Historical Preservation Officer (SHPO) about demolition of WPB/ANT Service bldg. Resulted in a signed agreement for demolition of ANT/WPB bldg in Aug : CG internally approved 2 phase project to recap both WPB/ANT Service building and the Group Operations Building. (Now the Sector Ops building.) These project were never funded. 2008: Scope Revalidated. Scope of work is for phase 1 (ANT, WPB, & Station Activities.) Project includes the demolition of the WPB/ANT Service building. 2013: $14.25M appropriated for Project 2015: Additional $7.75M appropriated for Project 15

16 FDCC PLANNING ACTIVITIES Refreshing 2008 Planning Documents Re-consulting regarding the demolition of the ANT/WPB bldg 23 Dec 2014: Consulting letters sent to MA SHPO, Town of Falmouth, Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe, Wampanoag Tribe of Gay Head-Aquinnah. 23 Jan 2015: MA SHPO requests CG establish revised 2002 MOA. 15 May 2015: MA SHPO gives guidance on draft MOA and requests that copy be sent to Falmouth Historical Commission and Falmouth Historic District for review. Falmouth Historic Commission recommended we have a public meeting to discuss demolition of WPB/ANT Building 16

17 WPB / ANT SERVICE BUILDING BACKGROUND WPB/ANT Service Building Constructed in 1917 for Lighthouse Service (merged with USCG in 1939) as a storehouse Construction Foundation unreinforced concrete, shallow spread footings Floor and roof construction - concrete with steel beams encased in concrete Exterior walls load bearing brick masonry, 2 wythes thick Service ANT Building Elevation and Cornice Detail, dated

18 WPB / ANT SERVICE BUILDING STRUCTURAL Foundation: Settlement cracks at foundations (at least three locations) Exterior Walls: Significant damage and cracks due to settlement and water penetration (freeze / thaw cycles) Cornice joints deteriorated and caused water penetration Loss of exterior mortar joints Roof: Long-term roof leaks caused corrosion on steel roof beams Spalling in concrete Concrete spalled at second floor and roof Exterior cornice falling off the building Other Exterior: Windows and Doors past useful life Water Intrusion Still encroaching from roof Tidal Floodwaters Photo Left: Netting above to catch falling cornice debris 18

19 WPB / ANT STRUCTURAL CONDITIONS Photo Above: (Top Left) Brick failure at exterior side of Service Building; (Bottom) Mortar separation and pitting on exterior side Photo Above: (Top Left) Brick failure at interior side of Service Building; (Middle) Cracking at Beam, masonry separation at structural brick pilaster (Right )Corrosion at Beam with cracks in masonry 19

20 WPB / ANT BUILDING BLDG SYSTEMS Building Systems: HVAC System: Equipment inadequate in providing sufficient heating to some areas Plumbing: Not enough restroom fixtures per state code Fire Protection: Code would require fire sprinklers due to area and space usage Fire alarms do not meet codes and accessibility standards Electrical: Electrical switchgear located within floodplain Electrical systems near end of useful life 20

21 SUMMARY Building can not be economically rehabilitated to meet any Coast Guard mission. Physical / Anti-Terrorism Force Protection Standards Accessibility Requirements A rehabilitated building still does not meet: Flood plain issues Building is slated for demolition in conjunction with new project Next Steps: Mr. Hylton will discuss the historical consultation process and how the public can influence the MOA Mr. Rau will present the preliminary conceptual design for this project. 21
