DALLAS, Feb. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacobs (NYSE:J) was
awarded two United States Air Force Design Awards for benchmark
work with the natural and built environment of Air Force facilities
and installations.
The Air Force Reserve Command – Consolidated Mission Complex
Phase One at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia – won the Merit Award for facility
design. The jury recognized the project for the team's
incorporation of strong exterior elevation through vertical and
horizontal design elements, translating to a testament of American
heritage. They also noted the impressive two-story lobby,
presenting an innovative design and showcasing Air Force Reserve
Command history and heritage artifacts. The sustainable designs
blended legacy with sustainability, including optimizing energy
performance through daylighting, exterior and interior shading
devices, water-reducing fixtures, and adjusting mechanical systems
to reduce air usage.
The Distributed Common Ground Station Operations Center at Beale
Air Force Base, California
received the Citation Award for facility design. The jury commended
the team on their column-free Operations Floor design that allowed
for the flexibility of the space needed to keep pace with
operational mission rhythm. They also noted the use of sustainable
techniques, such as using electro-chromatic glass to achieve a 12%
increase in energy efficiency beyond the industry standard. Other
methods supported low-impact site development, water and energy
efficiency, use of recycled and recyclable materials, indoor air
quality and occupant comfort – all features that helped the
facility achieve significant energy utilization and a LEED Silver
Certification that is unique for this building type.
"These projects and recognition exemplify our commitment to the
unique design excellence needed for these facilities to support
their 24-hour critical global missions while improving the
quality-of-life and reducing the stress for service members around
the world," said Jacobs Federal & Environmental Solutions
Senior Vice President and retired USAF Major General Tim Byers. "By leveraging cost control, energy
efficiency, functionality, resiliency and sustainability, we are
creating built-to-last designs that support the mission of
the Air Force for years to come."
