United States Department of Energy

National Nuclear Security Administration National Security Campus

This 1,572,278 square foot, secure, campus houses large and microelectronic manufacturing spaces, cleanrooms for component assembly and testing, laboratories, mission critical operations, offices and warehouse space for the Department of Energy. The campus houses 2,500 employees.

Within the campus is an administrative space consisting of a 3-story, 340,250 square foot steel frame office building. For security purposes, the building was designed to be flexible to allow what are referred to as "outer", "middle", and "inner" areas and access is restricted accordingly. The building uses both demountable partitions and fixed walls in order to help achieve this flexibility. As such, the spaces are adaptable and can be reconfigured in a quick and cost effective manner, when needed. The skin of the administration building consists of a combination of concrete panels with sandblast finish, precast metal panels on mechanical penthouses, and a mixture of strip and punched glazing.

The campus houses non-nuclear, high-tech electronic components and assemblies on a large scale for the NNSA in support of the national defense effort. Spaces provided for large-scale, microelectronic manufacturing and critical process-related production spaces in a clean environment include microelectronic and component assembly and electrical fabrication; excess and reclamation processes; labs and engineering labs; manufacturing; specialized materials production; plastics and rubber processes; testing and inspection; paint and heat treating; inspection and testing; packaging; special warehouse storage; and shipping.

Of approximately 1.5 million square feet of usable space, it includes more than 150,000 square feet of modular and fixed Class 100, Class 10,000 and Class 100,000 cleanrooms for assembly, electrical fabrications and testing. The mechanical systems are constructed to control and prevent cross-contamination.
