Project Overview

Classification:
Capital Project
Campus/Location:
Eastern Wake 4.0

This project will construct a reality‐based simulation center for training programs based in law enforcement, emergency medical service and unmanned aerial vehicle operations. The facility will include a training track to support emergency driver training, commercial driver's license training and motorcycle training. The simulation complex building is anticipated to be 77,824 square feet and will provide a 4D Immersive Interior Training Village, including a two‐story downtown street replica, along with multi‐function and specialty training rooms supporting law enforcement and fire/emergency rescue reality‐based training. Unmanned aerial systems and flight training tied into future Industry 4.0 programs supporting high-tech student training will also be incorporated into the facility. The project also includes associated extension of chilled water and heating water piping systems and the extension of roadways and parking.

Project Overview

Classification:
Capital Project
Campus/Location:
Eastern Wake 4.0

This project will provide a 15,700-square-foot energy plant to house chillers and boilers providing distributed hot and cold water for heating and cooling purposes throughout the campus. Intense energy savings and sustainability will be incorporated through the means of efficient systems derived from advanced solar and geothermal technologies. In addition, this project provides for the initial site clearing, excavation and grading; the installation of roads, bridges, infrastructure and access points; and the construction of appropriate site drainage and retention ponds, etc., to support the first phases of the site development.
