Craven County Maintenance Building
New Bern, NC
In an effort to consolidate their vehicle storage and maintenance operations, Craven County officials contacted C. R. Francis/Architecture to design a shop building for the Craven County Water & Sewer Authority and the Craven County Vehicle Maintenance Department. Due to the configuration of the site, the shops were divided into two wings of four bays each, joined by a shared strip of office spaces. The storage/service bays receive natural light through translucent roof panels, and are heated by overhead radiant heaters. The Water & Sewer shop was developed with an area dedicated to a workshop, and the Vehicle Maintenance Shop has a parts storage area. Vehicle Maintenance also required an outdoor oil storage shed, and a covered car wash area. The facility was designed using pre-engineered building components with the offices clad in brick veneer facing the residential development across the street.
