Space Shuttle Program Historic Properties 5-25NASA-wide Roll-up Report5.3.7 Type 7: Engineering and Administrative FacilitiesTwenty-six assets are classified as Type 7 resources. The Engineering and AdministrativeFacilities group includes test stands and associated control centers, wind tunnels, arc jetfacilities, and R&D facilities.• Propulsion Test Stand A-1 at SSC• Propulsion Test Stand A-2 at SSC• Propulsion Test Stand B-1 at SSC• Propulsion Test Stand B-2 at SSC• Coca I Test Stand at SSFL• Coca Control Center at SSFL• Acoustic Model Engine Test Facility (TF 116) at MSFC• Structural Dynamic Test Facility at MSFC• Test and Data Recording Facility (TF 115) at MSFC• Advanced Engine Test Facility at MSFC• Control Facility at MSFC• Materials and Processes Laboratory at MSFC• Structures, Dynamics and Thermal Vacuum Laboratory at MSFC• National Center for Advanced Manufacturing at MSFC• Arc Jet Laboratory at ARC• Atmospheric Reentry Materials and Structures Evaluation Facility (ARMSEF) atJSC• 14-inch Trisonic Wind Tunnel at MSFC• Abe Silverstein (10 by 10) Supersonic Wind Tunnel (SWT) at GRC• 8 by 6 SWT at GRC• Aircraft Landing Dynamics Facility (ALDF) at LaRC• SSME Hardware Simulation Laboratory (HSL) Block II Facility at MSFC• Crew Systems Laboratory at JSC• Avionics Systems Laboratory at JSC• Multi-Purpose High Bay Facility and Neutral Buoyancy Simulator (NBS) atMSFC• Shuttle Orbiter Final Assembly Building at Palmdale• Communications and Tracking Development Laboratory at JSCEleven of the 26 assets are located at MSFC, four each are at JSC and SSC, two each arelocated at GRC and SSFL, and one each is at ARC, LaRC, and Palmdale. All are eligibleunder NRHP Criterion A for their exceptionally significant associations with the SSP;some are also distinguished by their design and construction, and thus, are eligible underCriterion C in the area of Engineering.Four of the 26 historic properties are affiliated with more than one property type. Thosewhose primary function is as Engineering and Administrative Facility are describedbelow. Properties with a secondary Type 7 affiliation include the Shuttle Orbiter FinalAssembly Building (150) at Palmdale, described as a Type 2: Vehicle Processing FacilityJuly 2008Archaeological Consultants, Inc.
