CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILENEW MULTI-LEVEL PARKING GARAGE, VA MEDICAL CENTERFAYETTEVILLE, AR | $12 MILLION

Cyntergy designed this new,

standalone, multi-level garage,

which provides structured park-

ing (522 spaces) for a mix of staff,

patients and visitors at the VA

Medical Center in Fayetteville. The

project includes stairs, elevator

lobbies, an electric room and ele-

vator equipment room along with

site and utility work.

The garage was constructed uti-

lizing pre-cast concrete breams

and columns for the main struc-

ture and pre-cast double tee with

a site cast topping slab for the

parking decks.

The garage was

designed as an

open-air struc-

ture, in order to

minimize the

mechanical ven-

tilation require-

ments.

Cyntergy provid-

ed full AE design

services on this design-build proj-

ect, which included ATFP concerns

regarding passive barriers, stand-

off distances and vehicular access

control as well as coordination

with SHPO and the City of Fayette-

ville for historical requirements.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEURGENT & PRIMARY CARE EXPANSION & RENOVATION, PHASE IVA MEDICAL CENTER, FAYETTEVILLE, AR | $3.5 MILLION

Cyntergy provided full AE services

on this project, which involved

the renovation of approximately

8,000sf of existing facilities and

9,000sf of new facilities. Also in-

cluded was parking design, road-

way design, lighting design, utility

installation/relocation, sheet flow

storm drainage and various pedes-

trian elements. Construction also

included a 32 space, ADA accessi-

ble parking lot and approximately

2,235 square-yards of new asphalt

pavement with curb and gutter.

The VA also required assistance in

programming/concept design, in

order to produce a design that re-

flected its master plan guidelines,

served the end user (medical staff)

and met the growing needs of the

facility.

In addition, the main hospital

building has significant historical

elements that required coordi-

nation with historic preservation

jurisdictional authorities in consid-

ering the expansion options. Cyn-

tergy also assisted in the bidding

process and also provided con-

struction administration services

during the general contractor’s

construction period.

Cyntergy provided mechanical,

electrical, architectural, structural,

civil and construction phase ser-

vices for a major steam heating

plant upgrade that included an ini-

tial feasibility study, detailed con-

struction plans and specifications.

The feasibility study included a

thorough steam usage audit and

steam system investigation phase

for all of the VA campus buildings

served by the main heating plant.

The audit included the survey

steam usage for hospital steril-

ization systems, comfort heating,

outside treatment and a large

commercial steam laundry. The

study indicated that decentraliza-

tion and converting from steam

to hot water boilers was indeed a

beneficial option, both in regards

to economics and energy con-

sumption; however, due to oper-

ational requirements associated

with high pressure steam and au-

toclave requirements, the final de-

cision was made to continue with

an upgraded centralized steam

plant for the VA’s Fayetteville Med-

ical Facility.

The project included the replace-

ment of three existing Cleav-

er-Brooks steam boilers at the

main heating plant building. In

addition to the steam

boiler upgrade, the main

below-grade steam dis-

tribution system serving

multiple buildings was

also upgraded with new

direct-bury factory-insulat-

ed steam and condensate

piping.

Cyntergy’s Mechanical

Engineering Team led

the effort in providing

the engineering design,

feasibility study and esti-

mating to assist the VA in making

the decision to ultimately keep

the centralized steam production

facility with upgraded steam dis-

tribution. Cyntergy prepared bid

and construction documents for

the upgraded steam boiler plant

system and provided construction

administration services to the VA

during construction of the project.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEBOILER REPLACEMENT STUDY & DESIGNVA MEDICAL CENTER, FAYETTEVILLE, AR | $1.5 MILLION

The Cyntergy/McSorley Architects

Design Team was awarded this to-

tal small business set-aside project

at the Department of Veterans Af-

fairs Medical Facility in Fayetteville.

This project expanded the existing

Primary Care Building on the east

side of the main hospital build-

ing complex by roughly 7,000sf;

essentially, by utilizing the same

functional areas previously de-

signed by Cyntergy and construct-

ed for the Urgent and Primary Care

facility expansion. Medical areas

included reception, clerk stations,

nursing care ar-

eas, and exam

rooms.

The Design

Team provided

full construction

bid documents,

which involved

full AE and con-

struction phase

services.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEPRIMARY CARE FACILITY EXPANSION, PHASE II

VA MEDICAL CENTER, FAYETTEVILLE, AR | $1.6 MILLION

Cyntergy provided architectural,

multidiscipline engineering and

construction services on the VA’s

Mental Health Outpatient Center

expansion in Fayetteville, Arkan-

sas.

The project consisted of a second

floor expansion of approximately

13,554sf of medical office space

designed to house additional

mental health resources, in order

to accommodate increased visits

resulting from the returning vets

from Iraq and Afghanistan.

Cyntergy also provided design

for a Category 5e voice and data

networks infrastructure expansion

to Mental Health Building. The de-

sign was based upon TIA/EIA-568,

569-A and 607, as well as VA stan-

dards, consisting of one main dis-

tribution closet housing both the

digital voice and data networks.

The network cables were routed

through the facility using an above

the ceiling cable tray system and

fire stopping was designed be-

tween the rated assemblies. A typ-

ical work-station drop provided

for two voice and two data RJ-45

ports with voice lines terminated

on 110 blocks and data lines ter-

minated in Cat5e patch panels. All

drops were required to be tested

and certified as Cat5e prior to ac-

ceptance.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEMENTAL HEALTH FACILITY EXPANSIONVA MEDICAL CENTER, FAYETTEVILLE, AR | $4.2 MILLION

Cyntergy provided architecture and engineering services on this design-build project consisting of a 9,665sf Weapons System Trainer high-bay addition to an existing flight simulator facility.

The project included concrete footings and slab on grade, struc-tural steel frame, standing seam metal roof, brick exterior walls, fire protection/suppression, electrical distribution, including electrical distribution for mission critical UPS system. Also included complete 341 node Category 6 voice and data network infrastructure de-signs, consisting of fiber-optic and UTP media, cable-tray, network closet hardware and grounding.

This facility was hard wired for voice and data Category 6 with an intermediate distribution clos-et. Also included was a fiber optic backbone and 200-pair copper voice trunk routed from an exist-ing MDC, with approximately 430 nodes installed on the network. A

new raised floor computer room is served from the intermediate clos-et and Category 6 cabling installed for Government furnished and in-stalled security devices.

Site work included relocation of an anode bed and runoff drainage swale, asphalt access roadway and parking areas.

Cyntergy also coordinated with a third party Commissioning Agent (CxA) to generate pre-functional and functional equipment per-formance tests and checklists, reviewed Owner’s Project Require-ments, responded to deficiency logs generated by the CxA and assisted with trouble-shooting equipment startup issues.

This project complies with Depart-ment Of Defense anti-terrorism/force protection requirements per Unified Facilities Criteria with raised floor space for operational comput-ers, briefing rooms, component and facility storage, classrooms, and instructor areas. The area is se-

curable to the Secret Level and con-forms to the security architecture of the existing facility, meets safety requirements for new construction and complies with established physical security guidelines.

The C-130 project received LEED Sil-ver certification under the LEED 2.2 rating system. Sustainable features incorporated in the design include a thermally efficient building enve-lope, high efficiency HVAC systems, high efficiency plumbing fixtures, water efficient landscaping, use of recycled building materials and low VOC paints and coatings.

This design-build project received an overall CCASS rating of “Out-standing” and an overall design evaluation of “Excellent.”

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEC-130 FLIGHT SIMULATOR FACILITY ADDITION

LITTLE ROCK AFB, AR | $5 MILLION

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE REPAIR HANGAR 250, PHASES I & II LITTLE ROCK AFB, AR | $9 MILLION

Cyntergy provided professional services for the upgrade of Hangar 250 (152,174sf) at Little Rock AFB. Constructed in 1954, Hangar 250 is the oldest building at the base, and the functions/organizations associated with this hangar involve the upgrade, maintenance and repair of C-130 aircraft. There are four cubes inside this hangar area used for aircraft maintenance and repair functions that house offic-es, parts storage, machine shops, break rooms, rest rooms and other support functions. The hangar also contains three open spaces for complete housing of C-130 aircraft during maintenance functions.

The primary purpose of the phase I renovation consisted of replacing the existing fire protection system with a new high expansion foam and sprinkler system. This system was fully engineered and designed to provide coverage within the hangar as well as the cube interi-or spaces to meet UFC and NFPA design criteria. A new address-able alarm system was provided with one master panel reporting through one Monaco BTX-F trans-ceiver. This fire alarm system utilizes voice enunciation for conditions in lieu of tones meeting intelligibility requirements of NFPA 72 as modi-fied by UFC 4-021-01. In addition,

the scope of work included the design and construction of a new domestic water supply; new eye wash stations; upgrade and refur-bishment of cube areas; removal of old steam boilers and modification of the facility to house the new HEX foam equipment; as well as civil/structural analyzes. Hangar 250 was required to be fully occupied and in use during the entire dem-olition and construction period, which required detailed construc-tion phasing.

Phase II consisted of the renovation and repurposing of all four support cubes and the addition of a new break room outside cube 1 with a separate HVAC system. This includ-ed design services to reconfigure one cube, while others were com-pletely gutted and reconfigured, which required new structural members, HVAC system upgrades, and replacement of various elec-trical system components. The fire protection system was also extend-ed and reconfigured to include the addition of the break room and reconfigured cubes. Phase II also required Hangar 250 to be fully occupied and in use during the entire demolition and construction period, which required detailed construction phasing.

All components of the electrical distribution system more than three years old, including select branch circuit panel boards, dis-connect switches, motor starters, feeder conduit and conductors were replaced. The hangar was Category 6 hard-wired voice and data, with multiple distribution closets. Approximately 100 nodes were installed on the networks. Project incorporated fiber optic backbone and Cat6 voice trunk. Voice and data networks inter-faced into an existing demark.

The hangar operations are mission critical and required operations to take place throughout the con-struction phases. As a result, phas-ing requirements were developed with close collaboration with the Using Agency representatives. In addition, modifications and up-grades made during Phase I, and other projects affecting the han-gar, were incorporated into Phase II during the design phase as these changes took place.

Under its AE Open End Contract,

Cyntergy provided a Space Anal-

ysis Study of Buildings 1250 and

1255 at Little Rock AFB. Building

1250 is the Wing Command and

houses many functions of the base

command, including headquar-

ters for the 19th Airlift Wing, the

19th Mission Support Group and

the Law Center. This space anal-

ysis was required to determine

that the spatial requirements and

space allocations for each group

met the requirements set forth by

Air Force Handbook (AFH) 32-1084

(1 September 1996).

Building 1250 is a two story struc-

ture consisting of 32,172sf and in-

cluded areas supporting:

• 314th Air Wing & Command

Staff

• Protocol

• Wing Plans (XP)

• Public Affairs (PA)

• Law Center (JAG)

• 314th Mission Support Group

(MSG)

Building 1255 is a two story struc-

ture consisting of 54,000sf and in-

cluded areas supporting:

• Area Defense Council (ADC)

• 314th Mission Support

Squadron (MSS)

• Civilian Personnel

• Military Personnel

• Air Force Reserve Recruiting

Office

• 314th Logistics Readiness

Squadron (LRS)

• 314th Security Forces

Squadron (SFS)

• Retiree Office (CVR)

• 314th Services Squadron (SVS)

• 314th Comptroller Squadron

(CPTS)

• Union Office

Under a separate task order (TO

8001), Cyntergy provided pro-

fessional design services for the

renovation and reconfiguration

of Building 1250. The focus of this

project was the Law Center, spe-

cifically the courtroom, which oc-

cupies the majority of the second

floor of this two-story building.

The redesign of the courtroom

was necessary to make the space

more functional and to meet the

current AF Standards regarding

formal decorum requirements for

Court-Martial proceedings.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEB1250 & 1255 SPACE ANALYSIS STUDY, LITTLE ROCK AFB, AR

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE B1250 RENOVATION & RECONFIGURATION OF COURTROOM INTERIORLITTLE ROCK AFB, AR | >$1 MILLION

Building 1250 is the Wing Com-

mand and houses many functions

of the base command including

Headquarters for the 19th Airlift

Wing, the 19th Mission Support

Group and the base Law Center.

The focus of the project was the

Law Center, specifically the court-

room, which occupies the ma-

jority of the second floor of this

two-story building. The redesign

of the courtroom was necessary

to make the space more functional

and to meet the current AF Stan-

dards regarding formal decorum

requirements for Court-Martial

proceedings.

Cyntergy’s scope included the

relocation of the judge’s bench,

witness stand, court reporter’s

stand and jury box, which was

expanded from eight seats to

fourteen. The audience seating

was increased from twenty to

twenty-five personnel, and the

judge’s stand raised and relocated

to a new more visible room loca-

tion, flanked by a new witness and

court reporter stands. An addition-

al objective of the renovation was

to provide sounds attenuation to

prevent outside noise and to

maintain privacy of the court pro-

ceedings. Technology upgrades

were incorporated into the design

providing new communication

and AV connectivity, video tele-

conferencing, as well as the reloca-

tion of the projection equipment

and the sound/recording system.

The space limitation created

unique challenges for space re-

quirements as well as lines of site

for courtroom functional require-

ments. Close coordination with

JAG personnel was also required

to obtain audio-visual, seating

and other courtroom staff needs,

and interface with the automated

court reporting system required

strict sound attenuation guide-

lines that included replacement

of HVAC fan coil units to reduce

noise. The Law Office and Wing

Command functions, both being

located adjacent to the court-

room, remained occupied and

functioning during the project.

Coordination was required to en-

sure construction buffers, dust

protection and access require-

ments throughout the project.

Lisa Smith, Contract Specialist USAF 19th Contracting Squadron

“Provided very thorough site investigation and field analysis from beginning of project. Plans and specifications provided were detailed and accurate. Provided design submittals on-time or ahead of schedule. Highly cooperative and responsive to changes requested by Government throughout the design process. AE firm’s cooperation and responsiveness postured Govern-ment to capture end-of-fiscal year funds for construction.”

Under its AE Open End Contract, Cyntergy provided services for this 26,000sf, 3-story dormitory facility. The existing HVAC system was anti-quated, inefficient and did not pro-vide a comfortable environment for the occupants of the building. A new system was designed utiliz-ing the existing air handling unit, but replacing 92 fan coil units, a 50 ton chiller, and a hydronic heating boiler. A modern variable refrig-erant system (VRF) was designed including new controls, piping and ductwork. All electrical, natural gas, and other utility systems were modified and comply with ATFP guidelines. An economic analysis was performed to identify and evaluate the best energy efficient option that complies with high ef-ficiency energy system guidelines. Additionally, the ceilings in the ex-isting egress corridors represented a code violation due to inadequate height and were raised to bring the space into compliance.

Being that this facility is a dormi-tory, life safety was a consideration in all phases of design. The ceiling changes required the walls be

sealed from floor to ceiling to pre-vent the passage of smoke from one space to another. Matching wall covering was installed from the top of the door frame to the ceiling and from wall to wall in order to present a matching look to the extension, and gordon trim was installed to cover the existing electrical conduit. The boiler chim-ney was removed and required exterior patching of the building at each floor level as well as at roof level, which was completed using matching materials.

The newly designed system re-quired removal of the existing chilled water and hot water 2-pipe system and installation of a new variable refrigerant flow (VRF) sys-tem. The VRF is a total direct ex-pansion system that also uses heat recovery for energy savings. All phases of this system combined to result in a more energy efficient sys-tem throughout the building. Every sleeping room has a wall mounted unit to provide heating and cooling depending on condition, and all common areas and corridors are serviced by this system. Each of the

three floors has two dedicated sys-tems with each system having two condensing units, and all systems operate independently of each other. The energy management control system (EMCS) was also up-graded to monitor the VRF system as well as the MAU.

During the project, the existing corridor light fixtures were sus-pended from the structure to allow for the removal of the lay-in ceiling for HVAC renovations. Demolition of all circuitry to fan coils, steam boilers, feed water pumps, and the 600 amp main panel board was necessary to allow for an upgrade to the necessary 800 amp panel board. The new 800 amp panel board. along with all necessary feeders, was installed to provide adequate service to the new sys-tem and utilized existing conduits during the installation. This new system resulted in significant en-ergy savings due to the design of a more efficient system throughout the building.

LITTLE ROCK AFB, AR | $1 MILLION

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE HVAC REPLACEMENT & RENOVATION IN MULTIPLE FACILITIESLITTLE ROCK AFB, AR | $2 MILLION

Under an AE Open End Contract, Cyntergy provided services to replace and/or modernization various HVAC systems at multiple locations as shown below:

BUILDING 160 (CC $68,000) Scope included design and instal-lation of a new code compliant cooling system for the secure vault area as well all necessary controls and piping required to accomplish a crossover from using the 60 ton chiller (summer) to the new cool-ing unit (winter) and back again. The significant energy savings created by providing this indepen-dent unit was such that the entire cost of the project was recovered in a relatively short period of time.

BUILDING 222 (CC $357,000)Scope included the replacement of the make up air steam humidifi-ers with more energy efficient gas fired humidifiers including con-trollability through the base EMCS.

BUILDING 259 (CC $341,000)Cyntergy designed a new HVAC system, which was much more efficient and controllable through variable air volume, hot water reheat, zoning and hot water pre-heat features though out.

BUILDING 280 (CC $654,000)The existing system was replaced with a more efficient HVAC system designed by Cyntergy. All existing steam heating coils were replaced with hot water heating coils as well as new control valves and ac-

tuators; and a new hot water boiler was added to match the new load. The steam humidification system was replaced with natural gas hu-midification and the existing steam boiler and all associated piping and components were removed.

BUILDING 966 (CC 289,000)The existing split system was re-placed with an efficient HVAC system and all system compo-nents. The additive called for the replacement of the existing boiler with a condensing and modulat-ing boiler.

BUILDING 1995 (CC $66,000)With the HVAC loading changing, due to the building’s new use, a more efficient HVAC system was designed by Cyntergy.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE FLIGHT SIMULATOR TRAINING FACILITY RENOVATION

DOVER AFB | $14.7 MILLION

Building 206 is a 70,752sf train-

ing facility mostly operated by

Flight Safety to train AF pilots

on the C-17 and C-5 aircraft. This

two-story facility is comprised of

six separate areas (A – F), which

were all constructed at different

times and required upgrades and

renovation. This renovation proj-

ect affects primarily Areas B, C, D

and E (approximately 57,710sf );

however, other areas of the build-

ing will also be affected due to

the upgrade and replacement of

HVAC systems, data, communica-

tions, fire alarm, fire protection,

power and other utilities. These

sections will receive complete

interior renovations to include re-

moval of walls, ceiling and flooring

to rebuild/reconfigure the interior,

in order to increase

efficiency. Multi-

ple user groups

were involved, in

order to determine

the needs and re-

quirements of each

group in areas such

as flight simula-

tor boys, training

rooms, mechani-

cal/electrical/data

rooms, private offices, general

open office and administration

spaces, conference rooms, lobbies,

restrooms, break/vending areas,

storage and mechanical rooms.

Construction phasing was re-

quired to minimize the impact to

users; however, some occupants

will need to be relocated during

the renovation, except for the

flight simulation and Area A oper-

ations, which must remain active

and cannot be relocated. Design

was completed in September

2014, with construction comple-

tion anticipated in October 2015.

118,324sf Training Support Cen-

ter. The TSC is a multi-use facility

and provides office space, three

specialized weapons training sim-

ulator rooms, warehouse space,

welding fabrication shop, loading

docks, weapons secure storage

holding (hazardous waste) and

equipment wash bay.

The site design included a private

operated vehicle parking lot, truck

parking, maneuvering area and

truck dock well. The civil scopes

included approximately 207,000

CUYDS of cuts and fills, detention

pond, storm sewer, sanitary sewer,

lift station, water mains, fire main,

fiber communication, copper com-

munication, electrical, concrete curb

and gutter, 127,000sf of concrete

hardstand, bollards, entrance gates

and landscape on a 10 acre site.

The sanitary sewer required a du-

plex pump lift station, 24-hours of

emergency storage and approxi-

mately 2,000’ of force main. Grinder

pumps were used in the lift station

to achieve the TDH required and to

reduce the size of the force main.

The Engagement Skill Trainer area

has three separate rooms, with a

platform at the front of each room

with firing stations. The rooms are

used to simulate battlefield con-

ditions, with electronic weapons

used in conjunction with projec-

tors and a sound system requiring

sound attenuation incorporated

into the design.

The warehouse area is used to store

training materials, and consists of

multiple storage racks, as well as a

high-density storage rack system

and required special consideration

for the floor load requirements.

The office administration is divid-

ed into two separate areas and

consists of general office space,

conference rooms, training rooms,

individual offices and restrooms.

The fabrication shop is used for

both a metal shop and wood shop,

requiring special considerations

for both types of uses. The hazard

storage area is also located in the

fabrication shop area.

Design considerations were made

for the entire facility and surround-

ing landscape for Anti-Terrorism/

Force-Protection requirements.

Unique features of this project in-

cluded the vertical conveyor stor-

age units, which stand forty feet

tall and utilized for easy access to

cataloged storage boxes as well

as the gas cylinder storage area,

which contains multiple types of

compressed gases.

This project is also LEED Silver

certified under the LEED 2.2 rat-

ing system. Sustainable features

incorporated in the design include

a thermally efficient building en-

velope, high efficiency HVAC sys-

tems, high efficiency plumbing fix-

tures, water efficient landscaping,

use of recycled building materials

and low VOC paints and coatings.

This project received an overall “Very

Good” design evaluation from the

KCD Project Manager, Mr. William

Hood, and an “Above Average”

CCASS evaluation.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEFY07 TRAPS RELOCATABLE BARRACKS FORT LEONARD WOOD, MO | $20 MILLION

Cyntergy analyzed and presented

the civil, site electrical design and

support data for the construction

and installation of relocatable

buildings and related site im-

provements on two separate sites

at Fort Leonard Wood as well as

peer reviews on the modular ven-

dor designs. Each site contained

the same building components,

such as:

• Four 2-story barracks

buildings, 120 persons per

building, 12,512sf gross area

per building

• Two 1-story arms vaults,

373sf per building—scope

was limited to the floor slab/

foundation, electrical and

sanitary utility feeds for the

vaults

The first site layout, approximately

2.2 acres, was designed to mini-

mize the impact on the existing

utilities and drainage patterns,

while utilities and sanitary were

extended to serve the new facili-

ties. The second site, approximate-

ly 1.6 acres, was a paved parking

lot with nearby housing units, a

running track and other training

facilities. The existing pavement

was demolished to prepare the

site for grading, and existing utili-

ties and sanitary were also extend-

ed to serve the new facilities.

The 2.2 acre site required a 350’

extension and the 1.6 acre site

required s 250’ main extension.

The line extensions had multiple

utility crossings as well as a road

crossing, which was made by bor-

ing under the street as no open

cut road crossings are allowed

on base. Both sewer extension

projects were combined under

one plan set and approved by

FLW DPW and permitted through

MDNR.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEINTERSECTION UPGRADE AT HOSKINS RD & FORT SILL BLVD

FORT SILL, OK | $1.2 MILLION

Cyntergy provided a construction

work plan to upgrade an existing

intersection at Hoskins Road and

Fort Sill Boulevard. The intersec-

tion previously experienced signif-

icant traffic delays and increased

risk of accidents, which was fur-

ther affected by construction of

the Air Defense Artillery facility.

The scope of this project included

conducting site visits, research,

then evaluating and providing the

construction solution and costs

required to perform the modifi-

cation of the existing intersection.

The work included determining

pavement sections, site grading,

drainage modifications, adding

and/or reconfiguring lanes includ-

ing dedicated turn lanes as neces-

sary, traffic signals/signs, vehicle

detectors, pavement markings,

relocation and/or modification of

existing utilities and structures,

turf, etc.

Traffic movements were analyzed

to determine geometric require-

ments of the intersection based

on a 2007 traffic report, which

was provided by the Govern-

ment. Geometric layout complied

with the requirements of UFC

3-250-18FA, “General Provisions

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEPRIVATIZATION OF ARMY LODGING PROGRAM (PAL) FORT SILL, OK | $8.5 MILLION

This project included renovations

to 601 rooms at Allin, Aultman and

Geronimo Halls at Fort Sill Army

Post. These facilities are used to

house soldiers and other visitors

for stays ranging from a few days

to a few months. The scope in-

cluded complete interior aesthetic

renovations, substantial MEP up-

grades, ADA compliance and life

safety improvements.

This project was performed par-

allel to USACE contract require-

ments as far as implementation

of a Quality Control Program with

a three phase inspection process

and use of the EM 385-1-1. Key

Construction completed this proj-

ect under the Privatization of Army

Lodging Contract and received

several accolades pertaining

to performance and timeli-

ness from the owner.

Cyntergy worked as a “part-

ner” alongside Key Con-

struction and performed all

mechanical and electrical

construction inspections un-

der contract with Actus Lend

Lease. This arrangement was

perceived as an advantage

to the Actus Fort Sill project

team on this PAL project,

and the Key/Cyntergy staff

assigned to this project re-

ceived the highest commen-

dations and performance reviews

available on this Fort Sill housing

project.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILESUPPLEMENTAL QC, NEW TRAINING SUPPORT CENTER, FORT SILL, OK

Cyntergy provided supplemen-

tal quality control services to The

neering and on-site inspections

for structural, mechanical and

electrical engineering. On-site

support consisted of approximate-

ly twenty calendar days per disci-

pline over the project duration.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILENEW ROAD SALT STORAGE BUILDING (DB) FORT SILL, OK | >$1 MILLION

Cyntergy provided design services

on this new salt storage building

that stockpiles, stores and con-

tains road salts and de-icing mate-

rials used in de-icing roads.

The scope of work included prepa-

ration of the existing gravel site,

building foundation and building

to provide a complete and usable

facility for the storage of these

types of materials.

The building is approximately 82’

in diameter, dome in shape and

constructed of lumber as outlined

in the provided drawings. This new

building is located south of the

Water Pump Station, west of the

gravel road that is north of the ex-

isting DOL Complex and south of

Tank and Randolph Roads.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILEFY08 TRAPS RELOCATABLE BARRACKS, FORT SILL, OK | $50 MILLION

As the design partner to The Ross

Group, Cyntergy provided AE de-

sign and supporting data for the

construction and installation of

relocatable buildings (modular

barracks), five support buildings,

arms vault facilities, and related

site improvements on three sep-

arate sites at Fort Sill, Oklahoma.

The three sites contained the fol-

lowing components:

Site No. 1 — Basic Training Sets

• Eight 2-story barracks

buildings, 120 persons per

building, 12,588sf per building

• Two 2-story COF buildings,

8,869sf per building

• One 2-story Battalion (BN)

Headquarters Building,

17,982sf

• Six Arms Vaults: five 1-story

Arms Vaults, 200sf per building

& one 1-story Arms Vault, 480sf

Site No. 2 — Reception Sets

• Eight 2-story barracks

buildings, 120 persons per

building, 12,588sf per building

• Two 2-story buildings, COF

buildings,

9,030sf per

building

Site No. 3 —

Advanced

Infantry Training Sets

• Four 2-story buildings, 120

persons per building, 14,441sf

per building

The first site (7.2 acres) included do-

nating four existing modular hous-

ing units to a local school for the

use of classrooms with three of the

existing covered staging areas to

remain. The site layout minimized

the impact on existing utilities and

drainage patterns and existing utili-

ties were extended as needed.

Half of the second site (5.4 acres)

was a paved parking lot, which

was left in place, while the ten-

nis court, chain link fencing and

associated light poles were de-

molished. Minimal grading was

required and existing utilities were

extended as needed.

The third site (3.1 acres) was also

an existing parking lot, which was

left in place, and the existing utili-

ties extended as needed.

ADDITIONAL SERVICES

The domestic water distribution

system and wastewater collection

system on Fort Sill are operated by

American Water Enterprises (AWE).

Cyntergy was contracted by AWE to

design the water and sanitary sew-

er line extensions for each site. Sites

1 and 2 required extensive coordi-

nation of the utility locations due to

the proximity of the buildings and

the limited space provided for the

site layout. Site 3 required a duplex

pump lift station and force main.

All sanitary sewer designs were ap-

proved by AWE and permitted by

ODEQ. The project was fast tracked,

so design, approvals and permit-

ting were a critical element in the

project schedule.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE QUINETTE CROSSING BRIDGE/CULVERT RENOVATION FORT SILL, OK | $1 MILLION

This design-build project consist-

ed of the bridge repair at Quinette

Crossing where Quinette Road

crosses Medicine Creek at Fort Sill,

Oklahoma. The existing channel

underneath the bridge did not

provide sufficient drainage caus-

ing overtopping of the bridge

deck during heavy rains. Fort Sill

police were forced to close the

bridge during these times to avoid

damage and/or harm to people

and property.

Cyntergy was asked to design a

reinforced concrete box culvert to

replace the low water crossing on

Medicine Creek as well as a new

vertical alignment of Quinette

Road in the vicinity of the new

culvert to ensure that flooding

would not create overtopping

of the bridge during heavy rains.

A structural analysis was per-

formed based on the new loading

requirements for the new box cul-

vert and based on this analysis, the

new culvert and connecting road-

way is now capable of supporting

all vehicle loads that are used at

Fort Sill in the project vicinity per

the American Association of State

Highway and Transportation Offi-

cials vehicle tables.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE HANGAR 723 RENOVATION, FORT RILEY, KS | $3 MILLION

Cyntergy provided AE services on

this design-build project consisting

of the renovation of historic Han-

gar 723, located on the Marshal

Army Airfield runway, and used in

the maintenance of fueled aircraft,

with the largest being the CH-47

Chinook Helicopter. In addition

to the hangar building, originally

constructed in the early 1960s, the

project also included storage build-

ings and asphalt pavement.

Eligible for the National Register

of Historic Places, this 21,000sf

renovation project required SHPO

review and coordination and con-

sisted of upgrading the mechani-

cal, electrical and fire protection

systems to new, fully functioning

systems, including a state-of-the-

art communication system in-

stalled throughout.

Additional work included the ren-

ovation of: doors/frames/hard-

ware, painting, flooring, concrete,

masonry, structural steel, rough

carpentry, finish carpentry, case-

work, roofing, aluminum windows,

toilet accessories and miscella-

neous joint sealants.

Utility work included demolition

and replacement of domestic

water lines, plumbing, mechan-

ical and electrical systems. Also

included Installation of a new gas

meter and two fire hydrants. The

fire sprinkler systems were de-

molished and new complete, fire

alarm, mass notification and sprin-

kler systems were provided.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS, FORT RILEY, KS | $2 MILLION

Cyntergy designed two round-

about intersections to meet

unique vehicular demands at Fort

Riley Army Base. The scope includ-

ed analyzing conceptual designs

and traffic reports, then prepar-

ing construction plans and spec-

ifications for each roundabout.

A unique aspect of this project

included designing the round-

abouts to allow for tank traffic,

which required design of special

pavement sections for the round-

about and elliptical shaping to al-

low tank traffic to flow through the

intersection.

The first is at the intersection of

Kitty/Estes and Appennines/Estes,

and the roundabout (traffic circle

interchange) optimizes traffic flow

and eliminated the need for stop

signs.

The second is at the intersection

of Apennines and Estes, which

required a unique approach

due to Apennines having two

lanes of one way traffic in the

southbound direction. Estes

required a temporary detour road

to complete construction of the

Apennines and Estes roundabout;

however, Kitty Road was kept open

to traffic throughout construction.

These traffic projects involved

underground and overhead util-

ity relocations or replacements;

a traffic control plan; geometric

plan and profiles as well as con-

struction phasing. Storm water was

addressed with the installation of

culverts and piping; traffic control

signs and warning devices were in-

stalled and sod used for permanent

erosion control for slopes and other

areas beyond the new pavement.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE NEW MILITARY WORKING DOG FACILITY

FORT RILEY, KS | $2.5 MILLION

Cyntergy provided AE services on

a New Military Working Dog Fa-

cility for Fort Riley in Kansas. This

7,670sf project included a new ad-

ministrative building for the train-

ers and handlers as well as a new

kennel area with 16 kennels.

The administration area provides

work space for one kennel mast

and 19 trainers and handlers. The

ultimate goal of this area was to

provide a professional, well orga-

nized space that created a sense of

pride in the work place. The kennel

area was built to accommodate

large breed dogs and designed as

a modular structure to allow for

future expansion of runs.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE CHILD DEVELOPMENT SERVICES FACILITY RENOVATION (DB) FORT RILEY, KS | $3 MILLION

Cyntergy supported the GC in the

renovation of this Child Develop-

ment Services Facility at Fort Riley,

which was last utilized as a youth

facility. This renovation provided

the necessary flexibility and safe

environment required to support

the goals and objectives of the

current Administrative Mission

supporting the Child Develop-

ment Center as well as the Child

Development Program at Fort

Riley.

The total 25,000sf renovation

(Phase I & II) was designed to be

inviting and flexible, while main-

taining a safe environment to

support the supervision, care, and

development of a maximum of

198 children of infant, pre-toddler,

toddler, pre-school and kindergar-

ten age level. The renovated facili-

ty’s design was intended to reflect

a more residential or homelike set-

ting rather than an institutional at-

mosphere, while maintaining both

functionality and security.

The reception desk in

the entry area serves as

the central control point

for checking in children,

receiving visitors, staff

entry, and the observa-

tion of corridors. Behind the re-

ception desk are security monitors

which scan all corridors, exits, se-

lected rooms or particular spaces

as well as the exterior. Child activ-

ity rooms were arranged for direct

access to the appropriate play area

without traveling through the

corridors and sized appropriately

to the proper age level and space

requirements. All activity rooms

include a child scaled toilet area

and hand washing stations (ex-

cept for infants), and general stor-

age for bulk items and supplies. In

the other child activity rooms are

food preparation areas, diaper-

ing stations (not in kindergarten

rooms) and adult sized toilet areas.

Multi-purpose/motor-music areas

were created for gross motor skills

activities to serve as additional ac-

tivity areas for any age group.

Space was also provided for the

offices of the Child and Youth

Services, Family Child Care staff,

Child Liaison Education Outreach

Services and Child Development

Center offices. Additional space

was included for a training/confer-

ence room, staff break room, men’s

and women’s rest rooms storage

space, laundry room, kitchen, as

well as mechanical, electrical, and

communication rooms. Accessi-

ble from the exterior are uncon-

ditioned storage rooms for play

equipment in the play areas.

building with fire pumps was de-

signed to support the new system.

Water pressure tests, preliminary

structural analysis, code/criteria

analysis, foam calculations and

overall floor plans, as well as con-

struction inspection services were

provided.

Cyntergy provided A1, A2, B and

C services on this ramp repair

project. The apron was sized to ac-

commodate 18 F16 aircraft park-

ing positions, plus an additional

four positions for the combined

mission area serving arm/disarm,

hung munitions and fire control

radar check facility functions. In

order to keep base operations

running, construction was phased

into two parts with a corrugated

metal barrier berm being con-

structed for protection to the civil-

ian side from any misfire of 20-mm

training bullets from the arm-dis-

arm area. In addition, a heavy-duty

pavement shoulder was designed

to be used as a temporary aircraft

by-pass during Phase I and anoth-

er for Phase II.

TYPE A1 SERVICES Cyntergy assisted OKANG in pro-

gramming the required spacial

layout for the ramp apron for a

specified amount of F16’s in order

to support the 138th’s Operation-

al Mission. Challenges included

coordination of specifications,

user requirements, construction

budget and Operational Mission

within the existing geographical

perimeters of the Base.

TYPE A2 SERVICESCyntergy also provided Type A2

design services to further develop

the apron parking concept into a

solid, well-defined site plan. This

required obtaining an engineer-

ing-level survey and a thorough

geotechnical investigation, in order

for the appropriate airspace clear-

ances, site geometry, project limits,

key grades, drainage and typical

pavement sections to be devel-

oped as well as new ramp lighting

designed to meet the new apron

configuration.

Coordination with the Tulsa Inter-

national Airport Authority (land

lease holder) and construction

phasing were required and enabled

preparation of appropriate material

quantities/cost estimates as well as

the construction schedule.

TYPE B SERVICESIncluded full engineering services

as follows:

The method for repairing/up-

grading the ramp required rub-

blizing the existing concrete and

transforming it into a high quality

granular base. Asphalt shoulders

were constructed around the new

apron and pavement consisted

of a heavy duty asphalt mix due

to the high tire pressure of F-16s.

To provide drainage for surface

infiltration and to partially lower

the water table, two 6-inch lines

of perforated under-drain were

installed. A barrier wall was built

using Metalith to protect the adja-

cent property against accidential

weapon discharge. Concrete peirs

for new light poles were designed

with wind loads based on wind

speeds of 90 mph. A total of six

The design-build team of Downey

Contracting and Cyntergy was se-

lected for this T-9 Noise Suppres-

sor Support Facilities project with

Cyntergy providing architecture,

civil, structural and mechanical

engineering. The project is located

at the Tinker Aerospace Complex

on the southwest corner of the

base, which formerly housed a

General Motors assembly complex

acquired by Tinker AFB after the

facility was vacated.

The project included the design

and construction of two (four

planned) AF 32 T-9 Noise Sup-

pressor Support facilities, located

on the north and south sides of

the site and the infrastructure to

support all four T-9 test facilities.

The two middle test facilities will

be constructed, at a later date,

under a separate contract. A new

multi-function administration

building was included in this

scope and incorporated areas for:

offices, ADA rest room, small kitch-

en and break area, which also dou-

bles as a tornado shelter. Design

and construction of the 258sf ad-

ministration building included the

foundation, slab, tornado resistant

structure, electrical and mechan-

ical systems, communication and

several monitoring systems.

Site development included site

grading and drainage, pad prepa-

ration, access road to serve the T-9

buildings, administration building

and fuel unloading. Utility work

included domestic water lines and

fire suppression lines, industrial

waste and sanitary sewer lines,

storm water drainage, under-

ground power and communication

lines. The sanitary sewer system

required 3,500’ of 8” pipe to be ex-

tended to the site with the sanitary

sewer pipe running parallel along

a large storm drain pipe, which re-

quired meticulous field verification

to cross and maintain the appro-

priate slope of the sanitary sewer.

The sewer main extension was

approved through Tinker DPW and

permitted through ODEQ.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE B3225 REPAIR/RENOVATE BREATHING AIR SYSTEM

TINKER AFB, OK | $2.6 MILLION

The breathing air system in Build-

ing 3225 supplies fresh air for cor-

rosion control operations (paint

and de-painting) for Buildings

3225 and 3228, but was no longer

providing the necessary volume

to support simultaneous air re-

quirements for operations in both

buildings. The system was fre-

quently overburdened and went

down causing aircraft production

work stoppages and needed re-

dundancy to allow for unsched-

uled maintenance and repairs.

Under an ongoing relationship

with Cherokee CRC, Cyntergy pro-

vided architecture, structural, me-

chanical and electrical engineer-

ing under this task order, which

included Title I and Title II services

for the renovation of the breathing

air equipment, in order to main-

tain a constant air flow of 1600

CFM at 100 PSI. The equipment

renovated included air compres-

sors, purifiers, dryers, filters, fluid

cooling towers and piping.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE B3001 BOILER PLANT UPDATES & REPAIRS TINKER AFB, OK | $6 MILLION

Cyntergy provided engineer-

ing services on the boiler plant

housed in Building 3001 at Tinker

AFB in three phases as described

below.

1) BOILER PLANT VALVE

REPLACEMENT

The objective was to provide a us-

able valve system to allow for flex-

ible operational capacity as well as

seamless system operation in the

event of a power outage.

The substandard valve system

was addressed with replace-

ment of a total of twelve valves

in various locations. This resulted

in an increased ability to close

off portions of the steam head-

er and isolate portions of the

steam delivery system in the

event that a portion of the sys-

tem needed to be taken down.

Three new electric limitorque ac-

tuators were connected into the

system utilizing existing electri-

cal circuits with a new 480v three

phase panelboard. A new emer-

gency circuit was fed from the

control panel via 250 amp circuit

breaker, and the existing feeders

to the limitorque valves were in-

tercepted and fed from the new

emergency panelboard and con-

trols to the existing UPS located in

the control room.

2) OC-ALC COOLING TOWER

FEED LINE

Given the importance of the cool-

ing tower to production, a backup

line to support a primary failure

was necessary to ensure system in-

tegrity. The existing 6” transit line

was 50 years old and had already

experienced two failures in the

previous two years. Additionally,

an electrical code violation was

addressed resulting in a low-volt-

age panel removal and relocation.

Design included providing a new

second water feed line to become

the primary line making the ex-

isting water feed line a backup.

Demolition consisted of removing

pavement, fencing and saw-cut-

ting the floor slab in Building 3316

to facilitate connection to the new

water line and gate valve reloca-

tion.

In Building 3316, a new 6” line was

connected to the existing system

with a new series of fittings and

new gate valve. The new tee and

valves allow for a simple switch

over to the older (newly designat-

ed) backup line in case of failure of

the new primary line. In addition, a

new manual injector was installed.

To solve the existing code viola-

tion and safety issues, an existing

stainless steel control enclosure

was relocated using caution not

to damage

the existing control/signal/power

components and conductors in-

stalled and/or terminated within

the enclosure prior to enclosure

relocation.

3) REPAIR OC-ALC FEED WATER

PUMPING & PIPING

This phase consisted of furnishing

a redundant system to allow for

flexible operational capacity as

well as seamless system operation

in the event of power outage. The

pump system was designed as

a flexible system utilizing multi-

ple pumps both VFD electric and

steam driven.

The existing feed water pumps,

along with concrete bases, were

removed and replaced with four

new skid mounted feed water

pumps: two electrically driven

and two steam turbine driven.

The project included a total of four

smaller pumps in order to comply

with the capacity requirements

of MIL-HDBK 1003-6, while also

allowing a turndown rate that

matched the low plant operation-

al demand during off peak times.

In the event that an electric out-

age occurs while running on the

electric pumps, a new backup

generator was installed, complete

with concrete foundation, in a

sound attenuated enclosure with

all associated fuel piping, exhaust

vent, and other utility connec-

tions.

Three existing concrete feed water

pump bases were removed, along

with some existing floor slab, to

allow for placement of the new

housing pad for the pump skids

and the isolation footing pad for

the new generator. The new skid

mounted pump housing pad as

well as the new generator pad

were raised 4” above the finished

floor, and new pads were con-

structed of steel reinforced case in

place concrete.

Energy Conservation

Considerations

The installation of two smaller VFD

style pumps greatly reduced the

amount of energy consumption

lost using the existing oversized

electric pumps, In addition, the

selection of two smaller, more effi-

cient steam driven pumps greatly

reduced the wasted steam and en-

ergy consumed by pumping and

bypassing more water than nec-

essary. Overall energy reduction

was estimated to be greater than

40 percent.

CONSTRUCTION PHASE

SERVICES

The greatest challenge was that it

takes over 36 man hours to cold

start the boiler plant, resulting in

significant expense. Other than

the two pre-scheduled outages

in the Spring and Fall, the boiler

plant must be kept on line with full

seasonal redundancy. The longer

than normal duration of the proj-

ect was agreed upon, in order to

allow the two annual outages to

be utilized resulting in limited dis-

ruption of the system. Due to the

limited ability to take the system

off line, as well as the lead time

required to obtain the necessary

components, significant schedul-

ing was required throughout the

project.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE B3234 MONORAIL SYSTEM REPLACEMENT, TINKER AFB, OK | $5 MILLION

Cyntergy provided AE design

services (Title I) on this project

(WWYK060045) as well as con-

struction support. Initial design

was performed for the TAFB CE

Group, while construction support

(Title II) was contracted and con-

ducted directly for the Tinker Res-ident Office of USACE-TD through

an East Breeze/Cyntergy IDIQ.

DESIGN PHASE SERVICES (TITLE I)

Included coordination with the

new monorail hoist system ven-

dor, analysis and design of struc-

tural reinforcement of existing

roof trusses and columns support-

ing the monorail system loadings

as well as electrical design for the

new electrical demands.

Cyntergy’s SOW included upgrade

of the building structural system

to support a new monorail system

of greater capacity; design of the

monorail system, whereby ven-

dor requirements were generic,

in order to allow multiple vendor

“The overall success of the monorail project is directly attributed to Cyntergy AEC’s professional teaming skills

and talented multidiscipline engineering staff.”

opportunities; interface and con-

tinuation of design once selected

vendor was under contract, since

vendor requirements and system

are proprietary; electrical system

upgrade; test cell doors and seals

upgrade to accommodate the

new configuration; and new hoist

trains/trolleys.

The greatest challenge was keep-

ing this mission critical function

fully operational during repair and

upgrade with the added challenge

that not all test cells serve all en-

gine types. Cyntergy served as

coordinating agent between the

Using Agency, Tinker BCE, Tinker

Contracting and USACE providing

phasing requirements and plans

during the design phase, which

assisted contracting and potential

bidders in understanding how the

sequence of construction was to

be accomplished, in order to en-

sure this critical function stayed in

operation at all times.

Under separate contract (East

Breeze/Cyntergy IDIQ), Cyntergy

also supplied Title II services.

CONSTRUCTION PHASE

SERVICES (TITLE II)

Construction services included

site visits to observe installation

of components and verification of

construction satisfying the intent

of design documents, modifi-

cations to initial designs due to

constructability issues, availability

of materials, phasing of construc-

tion and coordination with new

monorail support systems. Due to

the uniqueness of the monorail

system, as well as vendor’s product

and installation

preferences, addi-

tional coordination

of design and

detailing were

required.

QA was an integral

part of this phase,

ensuring the system

and its requirements

interfaced with building com-

ponents and user requirements.

Schedule tracking, monitoring and

compliance analysis as well as close

attention to construction phasing

was necessary, in order to elimi-

nate downtime of critical test cells

unique to testing mission critical jet

engines.

Contractor questions and procure-

ment/monorail vendor require-

ments were a priority, in order to

ensure the project progressed as

needed making submittal reviews,

RFI’s and on site observations a

high priority.

Building 2280 is used to paint mil-

itary aircraft and its functions are

highly secure and mission critical

to the base—this facility supports

one of the largest breathing air

systems in the Air Force. In order to

meet current and future increas-

es in capacity and performance

demands of the facility’s opera-

tions, Cyntergy designed a full

replacement breathing air system

upgrading it to a more fully oper-

ational system capable of support-

ing 80 users at 20 CFM per user for

a total of 1600 CFM.

Cyntergy’s innovative solution in-

cluded constructing a penthouse

structure over an existing annex to

house all new components, thus

avoiding costly temporary service

and ensuring system operations

before switch over.

System design of all mechanical/

plumbing modifications consist-

ed of process replacement of all

major system components and

included capacity for additional

air-compressor installation for re-

dundancy when required. Major

elements included the breathing

air equipment, cooling equip-

ment, ventilation for the equip-

ment room and replacement

HVAC equipment for the annex’s

existing roof mounted system. All

plumbing, sewer design and tie in

were also elements of the project.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE B2280 BREATHING SYSTEM RENOVATION, PHASES I & IITINKER AFB, OK | $6.2 MILLION

One of the greatest challenges in-

volved the functions of this facility

being highly secure and mission

critical to the base; thus, requiring

the facility to remain operational

during construction. The breath-

ing air replacement was accom-

plished by two separate projects.

The initial project provided all

the new stainless steel piping

throughout the facility, while

the support equipment such

as air compressors, receivers/

accumulators, dryers, filters,

etc. remained in place. Once

the new stainless steel piping

was confirmed operational,

transfer to the new piping was

made overnight bringing on

board the new required piping

only. At this point, there was

no redundancy and the exist-

ing equipment was still under-

sized and outdated.

The second project replaced

all equipment serving the

breathing air piping system, while

providing the required redundan-

cy and was accomplished in two

phases. Phase one consisted of the

complete construction, testing,

commissioning and acceptance

of the new mechanical room and

equipment as well as the tie in to

the existing stainless steel piping

provided in the first project. Phase

two consisted of de-commission-

ing and demolition of the existing

breathing air equipment which

remained for the first project. Cyn-

tergy’s unique solution eliminat-

ed the costly need for providing

temporary breathing air systems,

while constructing the new sys-

tem. The result saved the Govern-

ment over $1 million.

Cyntergy provided architecture

and engineering services on this

design-build project, which con-

sisted of new construction as well

as repair and renovation. The ob-

jective was to upgrade this facility

to current base standards, in order

to “re-purpose” the building by re-

moving the current engine repair

operations and relocating mobili-

ty functions into the building. The

full scope of work included:

NEW CONSTRUCTION

• 3,000sf munitions vault with

reinforced concrete walls,

ceiling & floor as well as

hardened steel security door

> Included new lighting,

HVAC, humidity control, fire

protection & security alarm

• Fire pump room & installation

of fire pump meeting all code

• Secure mobility bag issuing

center requiring demolition

of existing security caging,

installation of new security

caging & issuing stations

• Total demolition of two office

areas & partial demolition of

one office area

• Construction & renovation

in the three areas to include

restrooms, lighting, HVAC

units, fire sprinkler systems,

plumbing fixtures, finishes,

electrical upgrades & motion

• High output sprinkler system

& new lighting under building

mezzanine

• New security caging in

multiple areas

• New warehouse exterior doors

& hardware

• Relocation of communication

closet, extension of conduit

drops for phone & LAN lines

& extension of alarm circuits

from newly installed fire pump

Cyntergy’s scope consisted of re-

modeling several interior areas in-

cluding the: “lean to” administrative

office areas and bathrooms, north-

east administrative office area,

north administrative office area,

restrooms and break area; northern

and southern portions of the high

bay area, including a new mezza-

nine and low bay storage areas.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE B260 REPAIR/RENOVATE MOBILITY ASSET STORAGE AREA (DB)TINKER AFB, OK | $3 MILLION

Runway 12/30, at the intersections

of three taxiways and the ramp to

the 507th maintenance area, was

the focus of this project. Some

of the runway slabs had scaled,

cracked and spalled to the point

that they could not be repaired ad-

equately to prevent foreign object

damage. It was an additional desire

of the base to widen the keel from

50 to a minimum of 75 feet. The

scope of this project was to design

the replacement for an extensive

area of the midfield slabs, widen

the keel and replace the asphalt

areas with concrete around the

taxiway horns where they intersect

the runway. Repair design was full

depth, including concrete, aggre-

gate base and stabilized subgrade.

The 507th tanker fleet is consid-

ered to be “Militarily Significant”

by the base, so work had to be ac-

complished quickly so the runway,

taxiways and 507th access was

disrupted as little as possible. As

part of the design service, Cyntergy

determined the feasibility of a con-

crete batch plant on site to reduce

concrete delivery time and provide

flexibility in scheduling work. Ad-

ditionally, the design of temporary

ramps to be utilized during con-

struction were provided.

The greatest challenge was keep-

ing this mission critical function

fully operational during repair

and upgrade. Access to the 507th

apron had to be maintained

during all phases of construction.

Cyntergy provided phasing re-

quirements and plans during the

design phase of the project, which

assisted Contracting and the po-

tential bidders in understanding

how the sequence of construction

was to be accomplished.

Construction services included pe-

riodic site visits to observe instal-

lation of components and verifica-

tion of construction satisfying the

intent of the design documents,

modifications to initial designs

due to constructability issues,

availability of materials and phas-

ing of construction.

with a two-tone brick veneer and

EIFS. Horizontal metal wall panels

and sunshades help provide scale

as well as a modern appeal.

This facility was designed to meet

LEED Silver certification.

Civil site design included utilities

(water, sewer, gas), pavement, 277

parking spaces—77 spaces for

visitors and fuel efficient vehicles

in front and two 100 space lots on

each side of the facility for employ-

ees as well as traffic circulation,

pedestrian wayfinding and AT/

FP measures. The AT/FP measures

included emergency vehicle ac-

cess, swing gates with removable

bollards as well as keypad access

and a motorized gate for large

deliveries.

Each parking lot was situated with

an essential landscape median to

capture storm water and parking

lot surface runoff known as low

impact development (LID) areas.

The LID filters the water through a

special landscape soil mixture and

reduces pollution downstream.

Also included was an outside

wellness area that incorporated

a walking trail, benches, native

grasses as well as other indige-

nous landscaping.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE C-17 FLIGHT SIMULATOR BAY MODIFICATIONS, ALTUS AFB, OK | >$1 MILLION

Altus Air Force Base is the bed-down for C-5, C-17, and C-131 flight training facilities; and Build-ing 89, located in the northeast portion of the base, houses the most current flight simulators be-ing used by the Air Force to train pilots and flight engineers. The scope of this project included preparation of a vacant trainer bay for the installation of a new C-17 flight simulator and load master trainer.

To prepare for the design, Cynter-gy met with representatives from the base, Boeing and Air Force, in order to apply the facility criteria as defined by Boeing, while mak-ing it work within the constraints of the existing building envelope.

The exterior of the facility was modified to allow for an expan-sion of two separate hydraulic pump rooms into one to allow for more efficient use of the space and to alleviate over crowding of

the equipment. The interior work included the modification of an existing computer room to allow for the installation of a load mas-ter trainer. This trainer is used to simulate load delivery by the rear of the C-17 plane. It is intercon-nected with the flight simulator, so the pilot can make adjustments to the flight as deliveries are exited from the plane. The flight simula-

tor bay was modified structurally by the addition of three concrete piers and pier cap designed to withstand the forces applied by the trainer.

CYNTERGY | GOVERNMENT PROJECT PROFILE C-17 AIRCRAFT TRAINING FACILITY MODIFICATION (DB)ALTUS AFB, OK | >$1 MILLION

Cyntergy provided full design

services on this project, which re-

quired the design and renovation

of an existing simulator bay for

a new C-17 simulator. The new

simulator placed significant addi-

tional loads on the foundation of

the building requiring the existing

foundation to be retrofitted with

new angled drilled piers. Drilling

piers inside an existing facility is

a challenge, but since The Ross

Group/Cyntergy Team had com-

pleted the same type of project

previously, a plan was already in

place to manage the work.

The new challenge faced on this

particular project included the

protection of the simulator in-

stalled the previous year. Simulator

screens are extremely sensitive to

dust and can be ruined by a mini-

mal amount. Completing a reno-

vation project in the same space as

an operational simulator involved

cutting concrete, installing sheet-

rock, sanding, and painting and

required special attention to dust

control. To achieve adequate dust

control, The Ross Group created a

negative pressure environment for

the project area and constructed a

floor to deck partition to prevent

dust migration. This allowed the

existing simulator to remain in

service and unharmed during the

construction project.
