A Chanen joint venture was selected by Swift Aviation Services to provide construction management services for its $14 million project at Sky Harbor International Airport.
The expansion included a new two-story administration building, two aircraft hangars, an Air-Evac office, fuel farm, shade canopy and an apron. The hangars were pre-engineered and totaled almost 70,000-square-feet; one provides storage while the other serves as a maintenance facility. The pre-engineered Air-Evac office is nearly 13,500-sq-ft. The apron is a combination of concrete and asphalt, making it more stable and less vulnerable to the extremes of heat and monsoon cooling of the Arizona summer.
The shade canopy is supported by just 4 pillars. Upon completion (2003), it was the largest shade structure of its type in the US.- ClientSWIFT AVIATION SERVICES

Included were an assembly building, central plant, flight test facility, warehouse and a paint hangar.
The two-story, 340,000 sq.-ft. Advanced Development Center was built to serve as a giant laboratory for development of new rotocraft programs and advanced versions of the Apache AH-64 and Model 500 Series helicopters. The facility includes a 225,000 sq.-ft. engineering center, a three-story, 270,000 sq.-ft. corporate headquarters, a 17,000 sq.-ft. computer room, a 200-seat auditorium and a cafeteria. A 250,000 sq-ft. material center contains a quality-assurance laboratory and warehouse.

Terminal IV
Phoenix, Arizona
The City of Phoenix Aviation Department selected a Chanen joint venture to manage both the design and construction phases of the $280 million Terminal IV project at Phoenix Sky Harbor International airport. The facility, designed by DWL Architects + Planners included a seven-story terminal; a four-story, 3,400 car parking garage, two three-story 28-gate concourses; two two-story 16-gate concourses and an additional 700 car parking structure for rental car consortium.
Although a significant number of tenant requested design changes were made late in the design phase, the project management team was able to minimize the delay and maintain the original construction schedule. To keep the project on schedule, the team divided the work into 14 separate bid packages and used three general contractors. this procedure met the city's funding requirements and allowed fast-track construction of the project.
Chanen's Jerry Olden was awarded the City of Phoenix "Heart and Soul" award for his work on the project.- ClientCITY OF PHOENIX - AVIATION DEPARTMENT

Chanen was the design-build contractor for two US Airways concourse interiors at Terminal IV, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. This $53 million, 129,000 sq.-ft. project, involved tenant improvements and complex equipment integration. The two concourses have 28 gates housing the majority of US Airways's facilities including a laser outbound/inbound baggage system. The system includes aircraft loading bridges, baggage handling conveyors. preconditioned air to each aircraft and flight information display systems. (FIDS).
By using the same mechanical, and electrical subcontractors as Terminal IV, Chanen expedited an early start, saving time and money. Two months work was also saved by starting installation of the main power conduits early thus eliminating time-consuming removal of already constructed elements. the project was completed at the same time as the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport Terminal IV, a $280 million project that was managed by a Chanen joint venture under a separate contract with the City of Phoenix.- ClientUS AIRWAYS

Terminal II featured a luxury coffee shop, branch bank, cocktail lounge, retail stores and automatic baggage-handling equipment. The facility, constructed using 152-ft. precast concrete tees, increased terminal space at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport by six times.
While Terminal II is set to be demolished, it has served the citizens of Arizona and millions of tourists for over 45 years with airline service by American Airlines and TWA.- ClientCITY OF PHOENIX AVIATION DEPARTMENT

Arizona Air National Guard (AANG)
Phoenix, Arizona
A Chanen joint venture was chosen to be the construction manager for the 161st Aerial Refueling Wing of the Arizona Air National Guard facility as a part of the construction of a third runway for Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. Since the current facility is in the path of the new runway, it was necessary to relocate the ANG. The project involves the construction of 16 separate buildings including a steel aircraft maintenance hangar and approximately $21 million in general site work. Building, site and utility demolition; construction of apron and connecting taxiways and utilities are also part of this portion of the project.
Major project architects/engineers include: The Benham Group, Lawrence Enyart Architects, Argus Consulting, Ganos Associates Architects, Smith Group, ADM Group, Harding Lawson Associates, Schneider Gadbery Shay + Partners Architects, Parsons Brinkerhoff Quade Douglas, and Cullen/Burr/Transystems.- ClientCITY OF PHOENIX AVIATION DEPARTMENT

Runway 3
Phoenix, Arizona
Chanen provided construction management for the $157 million City of Phoenix Runway 3 project at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The project was divided into nine segments involving 16 design consultants and six general contractors. The project includes the construction of a 7,800 ft.-long by 150 ft.-wide runway and relocation of the 161st Aerial Wing of the Air National Guard. Included in construction was a new taxiway, high speed exits and cross taxiways, related aprons, full instrumentation and lighting, new ANG facilities and a three-mile section of the Salt River Outfall. A new road from 24th Street to the new Air National Guard base was built, plus placement of storm, sanitary, water, electric, communications and gas utilities.
One of the largest items in this segment of the work was the replacement of a three-mile long section of the Salt River Outfall (SRO). The SRO carries storm runoff from the cities of Phoenix, Tempe and Mesa to the Salt River south of the airport. The existing pipeline was deteriorating. The work was complex and called for placing the pipe beneath two live taxiways as well as beneath the new third runway. This was done by jacking the pipe beneath the taxiways to avoid having to cut them and interrupt air traffic.
Runway 3 is the first new Runway at Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport in decades.- ClientCITY OF PHOENIX AVIATION DEPARTMENT
