Boer Architects completed this facade repair project at the AASF #2 Hangar for the Department of Military Affairs at Truax Field in Madison, Wisconsin. They provided all architectural services for this 50,000 sf, $400,000 building repair project. They also coordinated all work provided by structural and electrical engineering consultants. Work involved the complete exterior wall recladding, in standing seam metal panels, of eight helicopter pod bays. New metal panels were provided that matched the original panels in profile and appearance. Special attention was paid to panel fasteners and edge detailing to ensure a maintenance free installation. Existing “crab” doors to four of the hangars required their counterweights to be increased and re-balanced to compensate for the additional new panel weight. Services included design, construction document and construction administration services.
