Need Overview

Need Name: Rehabilitate Sand and Chemical Storage Building
Type:
Funding Source:
Category:
Sub Category:
Estimated Cost: $2,500,000
Description: Repair or replace damaged and corroded systems and materials. Mitigate future corrosion and deterioration by installing materials less prone to corrosion, and increasing ventilation, dehumidification, and other corrosion deterrents. Mitigate dust during material loading and unloading and repair or replace temporary bulkheads for more efficient use of space.
Priority: Short
Need Origination: M&O
Justification: QT132, Quick Turn Facility (QTF), 5960 DeHavilland Drive, 23,864 SF, built in 2005, houses sand and de-icing chemicals necessary for safe airport operations. De-icing materials are corrosive to many materials, including most metals commonly found in structural, mechanical, and electrical systems. Moisture and humidity can exacerbate corrosivity. Elements of structural, mechanical, and electrical systems require selective recoating, repair, or replacement. Increasing ventilation and other moisture and humidity control systems will decrease corrosive effects, extending the useful life of the building and all systems exposed to corrosive agents.
