RMH provided comprehensive electrical, mechanical, and plumbing engineering services for a new 43,000-square-foot, two-story facility supporting global scientific field missions. The building, more than twice the size of its 1970s predecessor, includes offices, electronic and wet laboratories, an ITAR-controlled warehouse, and connects to two existing aircraft hangars.
Both hangars support NCAR’s Gulfstream V and C-130 research aircraft. RMH’s electrical design scope included:
- Upgrading Hangar A’s electrical service from 120/208V to 277/480V
- Power and lighting design for a new locker room in Hangar B
- Integrated lighting and controls design throughout the facility
This facility enhances NCAR’s ability to support airborne research and innovation worldwide.
