Chapman MWD Large Capacity Kennel

DESIGN-BUILD: FY27 Chapman MWD Large Capacity Kennel. Design-bid-build construction project for the construction of a large DoD Military Working Dog (MWD) kennel complex. Construct a large DoD MWD kennel complex comprised of three kennel facilities, providing a total of 400 dog runs, and one Kennel Support Facility. Kennel facilities will include private indoor and outdoor dog runs for each animal, in accordance with Air Force MWD Facility standard designs, as well as interior and exterior corridors to access dogs from both the indoor and outdoor runs. Each kennel facility will also include central support spaces including a latrine, tack room, grooming/screening room, food prep areas, and storage rooms. Kennel facilities will also have a covered artificial turf exercise area running the length of the building, with fencing and gates to subdivide the area as necessary to isolate one or multiple dogs. Kennel buildings will be single-story structures with load bearing reinforced CMU walls at the perimeter of the buildings, brick veneer at the ends of the kennel wings and central support areas, standing seam metal roofs with a minimum 3:12 slope and sufficient insulation above deck to meet the local energy requirements, galvanized steel roof decks, open-web steel joists spanning the exterior walls without interior support columns, reinforced concrete ribbed mat slab foundations, reinforced concrete beams beneath the exterior CMU walls and interior beams, painted CMU interior construction, and sealed concrete floors. The Kennel Support Facility will be a single story, largely administrative building, with spaces for private offices, open work areas, training rooms/classrooms, locker rooms for trainers, storage rooms, etc. The final layout of the facility will be determined in close coordination with the end user in subsequent phases of design. The project includes all required site preparation, site improvements, utilities, stormwater management features, communications support, mass notification systems, fire protection and suppression systems, pavements, landscaping, and all supporting work for complete and usable facilities. The environmental remediation will consist of removal of contaminated soils likely present in the area. Facilities will be designed as permanent construction in accordance with DoD Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC) 1-200-01, General Building Requirements. This project will comply with DoD Antiterrorism/Force Protection requirements per UFC 4-010-01. Air Conditioning: 240 Tons.
