Stormwater Management

Any addition of non permeable surfaces will incur issues with rainwater management. This is usually based on the % of land covered in non permeable surfacing.

  • Underground basin may be an option
  • Keeping parking lot permeable (e.g. gravel) cuts down on % covered
  • Routing gutters to rain garden may cut down on basin size needed
  • Green roof may reduce basin size
    • Green roof increases roof load, installation + maintenance costs
    • Provides passive cooling in summer, potentially recouping installation costs in 6 years
    • May require irrigation for max cooling
    • Possible tax credits depending on municipality

Building Structural Load

Needs to support roof, snow load, 8 - 16 aerial points @ 10,000 lb live load , and fly rig

Wish List

These are things that are potential nice-to-haves that might add too much to the construction cost to justify

  • Upper level viewing area (a la ECTA), adds a wow factor for watching most things but especially flying and could be good for shows/events
