Scope Of Work
The Abingdon Fire Station is a three stories masonry load bearing structure with grade access at both the first and second level. It required extensive site work due to the extremely sloping and wooded site. The upper level floors of the building are precast concrete plank with concrete topping and the roof structure consists of wood trusses with asphalt shingles.
The building has an apparatus bay containing 10 truck areas services by electronically operated overhead doors. Administration area, computer center, control room and living quarters are all incorporated in the three story structure. The fire station also has a large assembly room with a full service commercial kitchen that is housed on the lower level.
