Fort Hood Projects
Fort Hood Heritage & Ecology Center
Family & Soldier Outreach Center (~15,000 SqFt): Will capitalize on the peaceful environment created.
Fort Hood Sportsman Center (~15,000 SqFt): Will build on the natural theme of this facility.
Administrative Spaces (~90,000 SqFt): Fort Hood has a deficit of over 5 million SqFt for admin spaces.
Fort Hood Heritage Archives (~5,000 SqFt): Will house an area to honor Fort Hood’s heritage. Environmental Education Center (~5,000 SqFt): To educate future leaders on their environmental
responsibilities
Fort Hood Straw-Bale Grant Project
• Unique approach to building sustainable• Exemplifies EO 13423 “high-performance buildings”• Design and construct world’s largest strawbale facility• Complies with Army SDD policy and the Federal
biobased procurement policy• Eliminates WWII wood• Address a 5-million square foot deficit in
administrative facilities• $27M potential grant monies available
• Federal and non-profit applicants• Several federal agencies award grants to other federal
agencies• A very positive project to demonstrate the federal
government is committed to cost effective sustainable design and development
Design Approach
LEED Platinum Certification• Zero Energy:
• Maximize passive solar gain• Maximize energy efficiency• Generate energy needs onsite
• Zero Waste:• Recycle construction waste• Utilize waste by-products• Deconstruct
• Zero Divide:• Educate all stakeholders• Self-sufficient facility• State-of-the-art, digitally integrated
Fort Hood Agriboard Buildings
Compost Facility
• Consolidate composting activities at the our biosite
• Will generate usable compost (DOT grade) for ranges, housing, and consumers
Inert Material Management Unit
• Inert Material Management Unit collects C&D for reuse
• Project to develop a contractor-operated service that takes in wastes and generates materials for reuse on Fort Hood
• No cost contract via Qualified Recycling Program
Silicon Crystalline vs. Thin Film PV
Demo will track the following:
• Installation issues
• Hourly power generation
• Peak power generation
• Total power generation
• Efficiency
• Degradation
• Maintenance requirements
• Cost comparison (procurement, maintenance, output)
PV and Wind Energy Demonstration
Sustainable Parking Lot
Identify native grass mixtures on a regional level Develop a methodology at an installation level
that:
• maximizes vegetation growth
• maximizes traffic tolerance
• improves parking lot sustainability
• reduces maintenance requirements
Low Impact Development (LID)
• Bioswale in existing drainage ditch• Captures first flow pollutants and retains
water to prevent erosion down stream

Other Biobased Products Used in Construction
• Lubricants• Hydraulic elevator fluid• Transformer fluid• Solid surface materials• Wheat-straw board• Erosion control• Sealants and coatings
Issuances & Outreach
Manufacturers: Do your homework.
• Write model specifications for your biobased products and provide them to design professionals
• Get ASTM testing done for your products• Get manufacturers’ organizations and standards’
organizations approval• Provide good data sheets and MSDS • Show samples to designers
Engineers & COs:What can you do?
• Ask for biobased products• Biobased products are main stream• Put language in contracts and specs• Show samples to your customers • You may already be using biobased products
and you don’t know it.• Dispel the myths: Biobased does not mean just
straw-bale houses!
Thank You!
