Navy and Marines share this state-of-the-art training facility.

46个,199-square-foot Reserve Training Center adjacent to Camp Dodge in Iowa was designed for use by Marine Corps and Navy reservists to increase unit readiness in preparation for combat. The facility includes reconfigurable administration areas, flexible multi-purpose classrooms and a drill hall large enough for training and ceremonies. 配置, 配色方案, finishes and acoustics played major roles in designing the new facility to meet the users’ individual needs while also providing a cohesive design for all to enjoy upon visiting. The project also includes a Vehicle Maintenance Facility and Mixed Martial Arts Pit.

The project was designed with future expansion in mind.

The site was strategically developed to allow for an adjacent training center to be constructed without disrupting major systems, such as the underground utilities or stormwater system. Native grasses were planted in the disturbed area outside of the building site to maintain the agrarian environment further.

Providing opportunity for cross-training with Iowa National Guard.

The new facility was constructed on a greenfield site adjacent to Camp Dodge. Regular meetings with key stakeholders ensured that the new site design had the capability of being integrated into Camp Dodge, one of the largest training facilities in the region. This provides opportunities for cross-training with the Iowa National Guard.
