This new $73 million facility
will house five SH-60R "Romeo" helicopter squadrons, the Navy's
next generation of carrier-based submarine hunter and surface attack maritime
dominance helicopters. A member of Walbridge’s design-build team,
Ruby+Associates performed the structural design for this 200,000 square
foot hangar complex, which replaces World War II-era hangars and increases
the safety and efficiency of helicopter maintenance. Ruby worked closely
with Midwest Steel and Walbridge to develop a structure that could be
constructed within the schedule and budget established during pre-award.
