经过40多年的规划,设计和评论,美国陆军国家博物馆终于在2020年11月成为现实。这座185,000平方英尺的不锈钢包装博物馆,其中包括成千上万的艺术品,文物,人工制品,文件和图像 - 通过每一代军队向游客指导游客。大型物品,例如坦克和直升机,在施工期间被带入并建造。

该项目位于弗吉尼亚州的贝尔沃尔堡(Fort Belvoir),坐落在北高尔夫球场(North Post Golf Coursel)先前使用的84英亩土地上。该网站缺乏下水道,电力,电信和道路通道,因此该团队设计并安装了广泛的公用事业网络来支持该设施。通过12英寸的北部提供了用于国内用途和消防供应的水。主要长度超过3,000英尺。船员在高尔夫球场的两个功能孔的孔旁安装了水主。对准还通过了敏感的湿地区域,需要进行数百英尺的定向钻孔。

减轻湿地冲击,溪流和栖息地修复是项目设计不可或缺的一部分。例如,该团队设计并安装了机械稳定的地球固定墙(长度超过850英尺),在高度为30英尺的位置,以最大程度地减少对现场西侧资源保存区域的影响。

To meet stormwater quantity and quality compliance goals, the team designed and installed underground infiltration galleries situated beneath impervious cover areas, such as parking lots and buildings. Three types of galleries were used, including 60-in. and 96-in. perforated corrugated metal pipe and 3-ft-high, open-bottom arched chambers. A total of nine galleries were installed, which were designed to captured runoff from up to a 10-year storm event, with no surface discharge during a two-year event.

“Not only were they just saying they did it,” one judge noted, “they were pretty specific with how they impacted the water.”

为了提供直接进入该站点的车辆,设计和建造了Fairfax County Parkway的新交叉路口。在交叉路口,该团队与弗吉尼亚州的交通部合作,协调有限的访问控制变更,使新的信号交叉点为博物馆提供服务。

“Because it’s a greenfield site,” the judge said, “the fact that there is a lot of parking and a lot of building, and they were able to maintain that, to me, is pretty impressive as well as building mock-ups to resolve constructibility and sequencing. Of course, next to the function, it’s a pretty good looking building.”

完成的LEED Silver-certified主楼includes a series of five pavilions for specific functions—particularly exhibits and special events. Several floors of exhibition spaces display selections from 15,000 pieces from the Army Art Collection as well as 30,000 artifacts, documents and images. Most of the artifacts have never been seen by the public. The building also houses a theater featuring a 300-degree screen.

博物馆校园场地的未来计划包括一个纪念花园,带看台的游行场和一条解释性的小径。预计该博物馆应每年欢迎大约500,000至700,000名游客。
