PROJECT INFORMATION

With a surge in growth for both the city of Arden Hills and the US Army National Guard, it was decided that a new facility would be constructed to support the rising need. The Arden Hills Military Training Site houses several military training buildings for Army National Guardsmen including this Armory center. The training site hosts both physical and administrative military training as well as storage and secure work areas for the Army National Guard.

PROJECT SCOPE

Our glass & glazing teams provided some pretty advanced and technical glass systems for the new military building. The YHC 300 OG exterior curtain wall system is from YKK’s high performance line specifically engineered to be impact resistant and blast mitigating. The YHS 50 TU storefront glass & glazing systems also from their high performance line and features the same benefits, but is thermally broken and includes insulating glass. 35H medium stile doors were installed with the impact resistance and blast mitigation properties of the curtain wall and storefront systems. All of the glass framing has a clear anodized finish and protective glazing
