This $15,000,000 project renovated 28,000 SF of existing space and provided a 25,000 SF addition to the Appleton Readiness Center. This work ensured the readiness of the 2nd Battalion, 127th Infantry Regiment housed at Appleton.  BAI worked in concert with their design Partner - Bailey Edward Design, Inc. – to provide new offices, conference rooms, classrooms, restrooms, locker rooms and a maintenance bay.  All plumbing, fire protection, HVAC, electrical and technology systems were modernized and primary equipment and service entrances were replaced.  Existing parking areas, service drives and sidewalks were also reconfigured.  The project resolved all AT/FP, ADA and building code issues.  Special attention was given to daylighting the new office spaces and to providing energy efficient and sustainable building design and site features.

This project included replacing the steam heating system of the armory with a hot water heating system, replacing the cooling units serving the office areas with new A/C systems, an energy recovery system and providing new direct digital controls (DDC) for all new systems. The electrical system capacity was increased to a 600 amp service with a new underground electrical service. Minor remodeling included the functional reconfiguration of existing rooms, a new kitchenette, new lighting, new interior finishes and an ADA compliant ramp at the front entrance. This project also addressed the need for additional parking in the Motor Vehicle Storage Compound (MVSC) by removing existing grass and installing compacted, crushed stone on the north side of the building. Sufficient exterior lighting was added to illuminate the compound area.
