FIRE STATION BUILDINGS.
PLAN AROUND THE APPARATUS.
Start with the department's vehicles and operating routine. Lay out the apparatus bays together with equipment storage, crew rooms and the route to the road.
Fire station building options
Tall, deep bays sized to the department's longest and tallest truck, with room to walk around it and open every compartment.
Doors at both ends so engines pull in from the rear and leave out the front, with no backing into the bay after a call.
Bunk rooms, a kitchen, a day room and showers attached to the bays and sealed off from their fumes and noise.
Include the work done around a parked truck
Open compartments and equipment checks need space too. List each vehicle and show how crews load, inspect and move around it inside the station.
How North Florida Fire Station Buildings works
North Florida Fire Station Buildings is an independent matching service. It is not a fire department, a builder or a licensed contractor. When a department or district sends a request, it is passed to one partner steel building contractor in North Florida. That contractor follows up, prices or bids the project, and performs any work under its own contract and license. This site may be compensated by the contractor if the request results in a job. Sending a request is free and creates no commitment.
