Attachment 5 - 7-A-201 Floor Plan with Dimensions.pdf

This is an architectural floor plan drawing for a USDA National Centers for Animal Health (NCAH) Large Animal Facility located in Ames, Iowa. The document is dated December 12, 2008, and designated as drawing 7-A-201, showing the Partial First Floor Plan at a scale of 1/8" = 1'-0".

The plan depicts a large containment facility with multiple animal housing units arranged in rows, separated by operational corridors and support spaces. The layout includes approximately eight individual animal stalls or pens arranged in two parallel rows on the first floor, each measuring approximately 8'4" x 17'. The facility incorporates mechanical systems, including ventilation and control equipment shown throughout the plan, along with dedicated areas for equipment, storage, and operational support functions. Connecting corridors provide access between the animal housing areas and auxiliary spaces. The architectural drawing includes general notes regarding contractor responsibilities, scaled drawing requirements, and references to structural engineering documents. This appears to be construction documentation for a biosecure or containment animal research facility operated by the USDA's National Centers for Animal Health.
