We collaborated with Stantec to design an expanded Enlisted Unaccompanied Personnel Housing (EUPH) site at Camp Bull Simons, a military installation south of Crestview, Florida, serving as a key training site for Green Berets and paratroopers. Our goal was to improve living conditions and quality of life for the growing number of enlisted personnel stationed at the base by adding two new EUPH buildings to the existing site.
Our design incorporated two housing buildings, a courtyard, pickleball and basketball courts, a picnic pavilion, landscaped green spaces, and additional parking. A primary technical challenge involved stormwater management: we evaluated the existing detention pond to confirm it could handle runoff from the new development and designed the site to safely direct all stormwater to the pond, preventing flooding and erosion.
We developed the design in compliance with standards from the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the Unified Facilities Criteria (UFC), and the Architectural Barriers Act (ABA), ensuring the facility met safety and accessibility requirements for Department of Defense installations. The completed site design delivered a practical, regulation-compliant layout that expanded housing capacity and recreational opportunities for service members.
