DESCRIPTION Each building (completed in 1966) is a 30 x 93-ft. rigid steel frame
structure with a 14-ft. minimum inside clear height. The structures are erected
on concrete floor slabs.

The sides and ends of the structures are open, however,

roll up canvas curtains located around the building frames provide protection
against the weather. Four rotary type gravity roof vents are located on the aluminum roof of each structure to provide ventilation when the canvas curtains are
rolled down.
Overhead lighting is provided inside each building, and outside lighting is provided
around the perimeter of each building.
Coral berms have been constructed to the north, south and east of these buildings,
except for a portion of the south berm between Buildings 976 and 980 which will
be constructed Post-GO after Building 980 is constructed. (See F&S No. 01022)
