The objective of this Statement of Work (SOW) is to provide and install metal covered aircraft shelter to support Joint Strike Fighter (JSF) Flight Test at a designated location within the flightline ramp area at Edwards Air Force Base. The building must be then disassembled and re-erected at a nearby location at later date. This is to be a turnkey project. 2. CONSTRUCTION. The building will be heated with forced hot air, effectively acting as an oven with internal air temperatures up to 225 degrees Fahrenheit. Due to solar loading, metallic structural materials might reach 250 degrees Fahrenheit. 2.1. Size - The building must accommodate aircraft with approximately five (5) feet with of additional clearance on nose, tail, and vertical stabilizers. This means the interior chamber dimensions must be no less than 72 feet long, 52 feet and 6 inches wide, 23 feet high (along building centerline and approximately 72 feet lateral to the centerline in each direction), and not less than approximately 8 feet high (at outer walls). 2.2. Sealants and Coatings - Building should be water tight using metal-only construction without the use of sealing compounds. Paint or other coatings are not required or desired. 2.3. Polymeric or Other Combustible Materials - Designs that minimize or eliminate the use of polymers and other combustible or non-heat resistant materials (will not perform at 250 degrees Fahrenheit) will be preferred. However, interim alternate solutions during heated operations will be considered, i.e. non-permanent door sealing techniques from the exterior. 2.4. Insulation - Insulation is desired, but must be exterior. Interior insulation will absorb and subsequently desorb chemical vapors that may prejudice test results. Please quote cost if exterior insulation is available with an R-factor of 2 or greater. 2.5.

Since the additional space around the 12-inch heat ducting that will go through these ports must be temporarily sealed to avoid heat escape, minimize the additional area beyond a 13 inch diameter port. Ports may be installed between approximately six inches and four feet above ground (to be agreed). 3.5. Exhaust Dampers - The design of the end wall opposite the aircraft door shall include installation of three (3) side-by-side, toner-balanced, back draft dampers, each 4 foot x 4 foot.
