Machine Shop Design
AmDyne prepared the detailed design, provided onsite construction
management and completed product and equipment submittal reviews
for a 50 ft x 140 ft Machine Shop at the Naval Surface Warfare
Center, Carderock Division. Initial Site work included drawings,
specifications and application for the Maryland Department of
Environment Stormwater Management and Erosion and Sediment Control
Permits. This 7,000 square foot high-bay metal structure incorporated
a 5-ton bridge crane, fire protection, utility support to machining
equipment, mechanical and tool storage rooms. Included in the
project is a grinding room with isolated ventilation system.
This new addition was designed to match the existing exterior
in height and materials. |

Elevated Water Tower Structural Analysis
and Bldg. 4E Repairs
AmDyne provided a complete Structural Analysis overview and
report of the 200 MG Ellipsoidal Elevated Water Tower at NSWC
Carderock, analyzing and evaluating the 55 year old water
tower for compliance to current American Water Works Association
codes and local regulations for seismic and wind loads. As-Built
drawings of the elevated tower were used for calculating member
forces and stresses with visual inspections made to determine
the existing conditions of the structural members and connections.
A Chicago Bridge and Iron structural analysis computer program
for elevated water storage tanks was used to analyze and evaluate
forces and stresses developed in the structural members for
compliance and factor of safety to current codes and conditions.
AmDyne investigated and conducted a non-destructive survey
to determine the cause and extent of cracks that have developed
in an existing 45’ tall concrete wall. Plans and specifications
were developed with a repair plan to arrest future cracking
and repair the existing cracks on the exterior face of the
concrete building wall. |

CARC Process Documentation and Technical
Manual Revision
The U.S. Marine Corps utilizes a chemical agent resistant coating
(CARC) process for all USMC wheeled and tracked vehicles. AmDyne
was tasked with documenting the CARC process from a technical
and regulatory standpoint. Painting and registration marking
procedures were reviewed and safety and health information validated.
Process modifications were then incorporated into a thorough
revision of the Technical Manual governing said process. |

Incinerator Test Facility
As the Construction Manager, AmDyne provided engineering,
detailed design drawings, specifications, technical support
and construction contractors for the mock-up of a shipboard
solid waste incinerator. AmDyne also provided an enclosed
air-conditioned data acquisition facility with communication
and data lines for housing data collection equipment and computers.
AmDyne provided site inspection and on-site construction management
and quality assurance during all field construction to bring
this facility on-line. |

Sanitary Sewer Line Repair and Stormwater
Inlet Repair
AmDyne reviewed the existing documentation, performed site
investigation and provided design and construction drawings
for the repair, replacement and/or rehabilitation of the existing
sanitary sewer mainlines and manholes at specific sites at
NSWC, Carderock Division. AmDyne investigated, surveyed and
inspected the stormwater inlets and prepared a repair design
and specification to correct deficiencies of stormwater drainage
in the area. Additional stormwater inlets were added to mitigate
the ponding and standing water between the subject buildings
and added sidewalks and landscaping in the area for pedestrian
traffic, stormwater management and aesthetics.

ManTech Program Support
Manufacturing technology (ManTech) projects consist
of solving industrial process problems associated with the
Marine Corps Maintenance Centers (MCs). AmDyne supports this
program by providing management and technical support from
the issue submittal phase through follow-up on the technical
application details of the project. Management support includes
technical and management liaison and coordination with Marine
Corps Project Managers to complete tasks. |

Employee Development & Training
Facility Design
AmDyne designed and prepared a complete bid package
including computer generated renderings using AutoCAD and
Spectsintact, contract drawings, specifications, cost estimate,
and submission requirements for the Stormwater Management
and Sediment and Erosion Control Construction Permits. The
project involved designing a 3,500 SF recreational and training
facility on the base using MIL HDBK 1037, Indoor Fitness/Recreation
Facilities and base requirements. The design incorporated
an existing free-standing restroom and shower facility into
the new construction. The center includes a multi-use racquetball
court, open exercise and training area, renovated men and
women’s showers and locker rooms, entrance foyer and
storage area.
