Morehead Fire Station No. 1
Project Description
The Morehead Fire Department Station No. 1 Replacement Facility project is comprised of a fire station with three programmatic components. Two of these program components are contained within a pre-engineered metal building, clad in brick and insulated metal panels, and which has two distinct building forms. The first form houses the administrative areas, dorms and living quarters, while the other contains the apparatus bays and support spaces. The third programmatic component is contained within the first form and is an ICC-500-compliant storm shelter, which doubles as the main restroom. In terms of area, the Project is 12,300 gross square feet, and the usable area of the storm shelter is 143 net square feet. The main structure of the Project is a pre-engineered building system, with girts and purlins, insulated metal roof and wall panels, and miscellaneous framing, while interior partitions are framed with metal studs. The construction type is V-B combustible unprotected, and it is fully-suppressed with some rated partitions extending to deck.
