Camp Pendleton Marine Corps Infantry Training Center
KMA Architecture &
Engineering (KMA) announced today
that construction has begun on a new Marine Corps Infantry Training Center at Camp Pendleton with design and construction
plans to meet LEED Gold standards. The project, designed by KMA in partnership
with the Straub Construction, Inc.
design-build team, is planned to be one of the first LEED certified on the
base. Construction is expected to be completed by fall 2010.
“Because LEED certified buildings are relatively new to Camp Pendleton, the
addition of these sustainable buildings is an exciting project for KMA to take
on,” said Don Blair, president of KMA. “The sustainable features will help to conserve
resources, minimize energy and water consumption, and improve occupant productivity,
health and comfort.”With
a budget of $10 million, the two-story project will incorporate eco-friendly features
including photovoltaic panels on roofs to offset building energy costs by an
estimated 12.5 percent and water efficient landscaping with drought-tolerant native
plant species to reduce irrigation requirements by 50 percent. Overall water-use
reduction will be achieved with low-flow plumbing fixtures.
The design will also include energy-efficient skylights, and low-e insulated
glass for exterior windows to bring natural daylight into the building. In
addition, parking for low-emission and fuel efficient vehicles is included in the
design, as part of the plan to achieve LEED certification.
Additionally, a construction waste management plan will be
implemented to recycle or divert 75 percent of construction waste from disposal.
All wood-based material will be certified, and adhesives, paints and coatings,
carpet and composite wood products will be specified with low VOC content, a
common ingredient that is dangerous to the earth’s atmosphere.
The KMA project team is comprised of Don Blair, John Hilgeman, Alison Warren
and Rey Zumarraga. Berg Engineering is the civil engineer, DS Engineering is
the mechanical engineer, MPE Consulting is the electrical engineer, and SMR
Consulting Group is the structural engineer. Additionally, K. Killman Design is
the interior designer, and Crescere Design is the landscape architect.
