Project Description: |
The City of Hallandale Beach is in the process of designing and constructing a water membrane plant which shall house the Emergency Operations Center (EOC). Due to the many concerns with Homeland Security, it is essential the City have a functioning EOC to maintain regional emergency operations headquarters for the safety of our water system, as well as other utilities. The City of Hallandale Beach can be subjected to hurricanes and other natural disaster and therefore this facility will be constructed to withstand a Category IV or V level hurricane.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) recommends a design based upon a 200 mph three-second gust speed, or approximately a 150 m.p.h. fastest mile wind speed for shelters and EOCs for the Hallandale Beach area. The proposed water membrane structure will be designed for a 150 m.p.h. fastest mile wind speed and consist of a concrete-framed structure, reinforced concrete masonry units, with stucco finish, a cast-in-place composite roof, with roll down shutters to protect door, window, and other openings. The construction of this facility is $20,000,000.00.
