About this file
This document is a Scope of Work (SOW) for the design and construction of a new Airport Traffic Control Tower (ATCT) facility at David Wayne Hooks Memorial Airport in Tomball, Texas. The SOW provides comprehensive technical requirements for a design-build project, covering all major aspects of facility construction including site preparation, foundations, structural systems, exterior and interior construction, mechanical and electrical systems, utilities, and site improvements.
Key technical specifications include designing a facility with a 50-year design life, meeting sustainability goals to reduce energy consumption by at least 30% below ASHRAE 90.1 standards, and complying with Facility Security Level (FSL)-2 Critical Infrastructure requirements. The project involves constructing a new ATCT with a cab floor height of 90.58 feet, incorporating standard design drawings while adapting to site-specific conditions. The design-builder will be responsible for all aspects of design, construction, coordination with FAA and local authorities, environmental compliance, and commissioning of the new facility.
