New Division A Headquarters in full operation

RSC Architects recently completed this $2.7 million facility, located nearby the Aeroflex Airport in Andover, NJ, to replace the existing Division A Headquarters. The 16,000 s.f. building will serve as the new headquarters for the State of New Jersey Forest Fire and Forest Management Office for the northern region of the state.

The design provides space for administrative offices, central communications and training rooms, as well as an apparatus area for servicing forest fire fighting vehicles. The apparatus area provides for a variety of needs from storage of parts and equipment, to a fabrication bay and vehicle painting booth. Portions of the facility are open to the public, such as an information area, while others are accessible only to forest fire personnel during either normal working hours or for accessing special equipment during emergency calls.

In order to maximize the budget and provide the greatest flexibility of space for the project, both modular and traditional construction techniques were utilized. A pre-engineered structure, providing a clear span of 85 feet at two different heights was used to distinguish the administrative portion of the facility from the apparatus area. Pre-engineered roof and wall components were also used at the apparatus portion of the design where aesthetics were not an issue. Conventional metal stud framing encloses the administrative area which is finished with cultured stone.
