Texas Highway Patrol Training Building

The Texas Department of Public Safety’s Texas Highway Patrol Training Building is a 3,600-square-foot modular building composed of 5 modules. The modules were prefabricated at the Palomar Modular Buildings facility in DeSoto, Texas, before being shipped to the site in Austin for installation and final finish.

The modular building floor plan includes offices, restrooms, a conference/training room, and core support spaces such as a kitchen area, a copy room, and an IT/Telecom room. The windows are single-hung, dual low E-vinyl, and equipped with exterior security bars. The building also features a comprehensive HVAC system, energy-efficient LED lighting, electronically secured doors, and durable, low, maintenance floor and wall coverings. The exterior is finished with a 29 gauge galvalume roof and 26 gauge hi-ribbed r-panel steel siding. The 14×70 modules were delivered and then forklift set on the natural soil site.
