This document is a structural conditions assessment report for the T-150 building located at Fort Missoula, prepared by DCI Engineers on November 14, 2018. The report details the existing building's structural characteristics, including a 160' x 78' exterior footprint with a multi-functional space used as a materials engineering and automotive maintenance shop. Key findings include:

The inspection revealed the building is in fair to good condition, constructed in the 1940s, with evidence of moisture infiltration but no material deterioration. Structural analysis indicates the building does not meet current Missoula design snow loading criteria, requiring significant upgrades. The report recommends three renovation options: (1) partial renovation with a new second floor, (2) full first-floor renovation, or (3) complete replacement. Critical structural improvements needed include roof reinforcement, rafter upgrades, lateral system modifications, and potential foundation enhancements to meet current building codes and intended usage requirements.
