The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Glenn Research Center (GRC) intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) 80GRC019R0001 for the construction of a newly designed Aerospace Communications Facility (ACF). The ACF will be approximately 55,000 square feet in overall size and will centralize approximately thirty (30) state-of-the-art communications, electronics and laser research and development laboratories, with an estimated value between $20M and $35M. The building will be constructed on the site of a gated storage lot on the GRC west area campus. The new two story steel and pre-cast concrete structure contains flexible communications, electronics and laser laboratory areas; a high-bay anechoic test chamber; control rooms, conference and break rooms; collaboration work spaces; machine shop and storage spaces and typical building systems support spaces. The interiors are consistent with modern highly efficient and flexible architecture. The exterior is largely pre-cast concrete panels and transparent glazing curtain wall systems. Atop the facility is planned a large structural steel platform system for mounting of communication antenna up to a five-meter class. Extensive fiber and copper networks will be distributed throughout the building. Support facility construction includes, but is not limited to: the removal of existing paved and stone surfaces; site preparation; curbs and roadways; parking areas; pedestrian walkways and landscaping. Supporting utilities to the site include the extension of potable water; natural gas; sanitary and storm sewers; installation of high density geo-thermal field, high voltage electrical cable through new duct banks; communications cabling and fiber through existing and new communications duct banks and manholes.
