AIR STRUCTURES AMERICAN TECHNOLOGIES, INC. — Department of Defense SBIR Phase I: A234-005

Description

Air Structures American Technologies Inc (ASATI) has assembled the right team to develop a unique approach to solving the Army's need for the requisite infrastructure for the Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) Soldier Performance Readiness Center (SPRC). Utilizing an already proven air-supported structure, our proposal will reduce overall project costs, timelines, and construction risk while maintaining all of the structural qualities of conventional construction. With the current allotment budget of up to $6 million dollars ASATI is capable of building a facility up to 80,000 square feet and 80 feet tall. This larger facility would provide additional capabilities for the Brigades which we will be expanded on below. ASATI proposes manufacturing a facility that meets all of the criteria of the SPRC, as laid out in the Army Corps of Engineers Full SPRC Standard Tier 1 floor plan. Our design features an indoor track and a turf field that would allow all six elements of the Army Combat Fitness Test and training to be conducted indoors during any weather condition.  These proposed upgrades to the SPRC will allow personal to not only elevate their ability to perform but enhance their quality of life during their time of service. ASATI has teamed up with Green Eagle and to test an alternative to concrete solution utilizing a  new and innovative eco-friendly floor system. This system is strong enough to withstand the weight of an eighteen wheeler and alleviate the stress on soldiers joints that concrete flooring can generate. This floor system is also unique in its ability to adhere a multiple of different floor tops ranging from rubber to teak wood. In addition Green Eagle has a wall system that will interlock into this floor system for all the office requirements laid out in this Tier 1 floor plan. This system will dramatically decrease the build time for all the internal construction under the air structure. ASATI is a US-based air-supported structure manufacturing company. As the inventor of the air structure, ASATI has pioneered the industry by designing, building, and manufacturing every single "first of its kind" air structure which ranges across recreational, industrial, and military uses. With 27 Patents we have solved various industries' problems globally. From the heat of Dubai to the snows of Alaska, ASATI has provided climate-controlled spaces so work/play could continue uninterrupted by the elements. With a larger facility option the end user could tailor it to include a basketball/volley ball court, indoor soccer field/ football field, a dedicated area for the ACFT elements T-Pushups and medicine ball training. With the height and size of the air structure, airborne and air assault units have the ability to have a 70 foot tower under the air structure to facilitate unique unit training requirements. This larger facility could also be used to practice flying small recon drones and be utilized for an inclement option for a variety of ceremonies.
