O1 SHOPS AND MAINTENANCE ADMINISTRATION. These
areas are generally located on the ground floor. Their functions are to provide
the maintenance of the aircraft and the administration of the maintenance
activity.
The shop area consists of the shops as required by the squadron.
Different squadrons generally have different shops, different sized shops and
different arrangements. Helicopter, fighter and other fixed-wing aircraft have
different missions and their aircraft have different maintenance needs.
Helicopters have more parts so they generally have larger requirements for tool
rooms. Fighter squadrons have need for a specific shop to handle ejection
seats. Some squadrons are operated with small detachments and thus have
their own individual shops. Some squadrons have a "Line Shop" while others do
not. Discuss the operations of the squadron prior to starting design.
The maintenance administration areas generally consist of offices
that provide for the administration of the squadrons maintenance activities.

O2 SQUADRON ADMINISTRATION AND OPERATIONS.
Generally, the squadron administration and operations are located on the second
floor. Most squadrons have the same functional requirements and most spaces
are typical from squadron to squadron. Squadrons performing combat type
operations may require additional spaces such as secure briefing spaces, vaults
and other related spaces.
The organization of the squadron may determine the layout of the
second level. Consider grouping the operation spaces and the administration
spaces. Single module hangars with 2 squadrons will share some common
spaces such as heads, lockers, and showers. Double module hangars may
share heads, lockers, showers and training rooms to provide for more useable
space for each squadron. As with the O1 level, discuss the operations of the
squadron prior to starting design.
Early in the design stage, determine the security and operation
requirements for the squadron. Many squadrons require a "secure office" for the
incorporation of the secure internet (SIPRNET).

CONSTRUCTION FEATURES. The following discussion is
provided to provide information that may help the designer evaluate typical
construction features that may be appropriate for a typical hangar. Variations
may occur due to local building conditions, climatic conditions, budget restraints
or designer preferences.

HANGAR. Exterior walls of the hangar bay should be of a
construction suitable to the building type, be compatible with the design of the
