The proposed Facilities Administration Community Safe Room (“Project”) will consist of the construction of an above ground tornado and extended severe weather event facility designed in accordance with the requirements of FEMA 361 and ICC 500 and will be built to accommodate 325 occupants in approximately 3,588 gross square feet (“GSF”).
Key design elements include restrooms sized to accommodate design occupancy, tie into an emergency generator sized to run building systems, impact resistant construction, and a structure designed to resist wind speeds up to 250 miles per hour.
The location was selected to serve the overall area southwest of campus proper due to the high density of employees in the vicinity.
