CONSTRUCTION The Sandia Simulator Building is a 16 x 26x 10 1/2-ft. high,

prefabricated, rigid-frame structure with a concrete floor slab and metal roofing and siding. A 3-ft. high load bearing concrete block wall extends around
the perimeter of the building. Access is via an 8 x 10-ft. double doorway on
the north side. The building's interior is lighted and also acoustically treated.
A 12x 20-ft. concrete apron outside the building, used for displaying the simulator, can support a load of 3,000 pounds, distributed on 4 wheels. A h. ating
and ventilating unit mounted on a platform outside the south end of the buiuing
serves the structure. Antennas are mounted on a floodlighted wooden platform

atop the building.

The Sandia Ground Plane is an area of wiring in the shape of a 45° sector, with
a radius of 500-ft. It consists of No. 19 and No. 22 gauge wires which extend
radially from the center point at 21/2 degree intervals. The ground plane
follows the slope of the ground and is within + 5-ft. of a straight line grade.
