阿肯色州退伍军人公墓位于伯德耶，位于克劳利山脊国家风景区拜韦。为了建立一个尊敬的纪念碑，我们的退伍军人，该网站旨在充分利用这一风景如画的环境。整个遗址由墓葬区、欢迎中心、维修设施、收容所和仪仗队区组成。

The Arkansas State Veterans Cemetery at Birdeye is located along Crowley’s Ridge National Scenic Byway. In order to create a respectful memorial for our Veterans, the site was designed to take full advantage of this picturesque setting. The entire site consists of the burial sections, welcome center, maintenance facility, committal shelter, and honor guard area.

站点与建筑的集成在纪念退伍军人的生活和服务的同时，增强了现有站点的功能。欢迎中心位于墓地的西边，形成一条大弧形，可俯瞰墓地。前面的立面更像是一个庄严的空间，里面有简单的混凝土和木材材料。

The integration of site and architecture enhances the existing site while memorializing the lives and service of Veterans. The welcome center is located on the western edge of the cemetery and forms a large arc with views out over the cemetery grounds. The front façade is more of a solemn space with simplistic materials of concrete and wood.

这座建筑是围绕着一个中央入口天篷组织起来的，它打开了，以一种恭敬的方式欢迎游客进入这个空间。整个建筑的细节开始增加，当你到达大楼的后面时，它就变得更加生动活泼了。后面的外墙可以看到墓地的圆形景观，让游客们可以庆祝士兵的生命。

The building is organized around a central entrance canopy that opens up, welcoming the visitors into the space in a respectful way. The details begin to increase throughout the building, making it a livelier place as you reach the back of the building. The back façade opens up for a circular view of the cemetery, allowing visitors to celebrate the life of the soldiers.

欢迎中心由胶水层合木框架上层建筑组成，由混凝土基础上的木柱或混凝土挡土墙支撑。外墙有两种类型：一种是6“金属柱，带有绝缘和预加工的青铜色金属立式衬砌在石膏护套上；另一种是结构、板状、混凝土挡土墙。屋顶是由舌和槽木甲板下的刚性绝缘在碾压沥青片下的一种轻，反光的颜色。

The welcome center is comprised of a glue-laminated wood framed superstructure supported by either wood columns on concrete bases or concrete retaining walls. There are two types of exterior walls; one type is a 6” metal stud with insulation and prefinished bronze colored metal standing seam siding over gypsum sheathing, the other type is structural, board formed, concrete retaining walls. The roof is composed of tongue and groove wood decking underneath rigid insulation underneath a rolled asphalt sheet of a light, reflective color.

院舍位于坟场东南边缘，可俯瞰园景湿地。这是一个安静，庄严，覆盖的亭子，设置在地形与树木和植被。其目的是为以庄严方式进行的安葬服务提供临时住所。

The committal shelter is located on the southeastern edge of the cemetery site overlooking the landscaped wetland. It is a quiet, dignified, covered pavilion set in the terrain with trees and vegetation. It is intended to provide a temporary shelter for an interment service to take place in a solemn manner.

它位于一个与行政、维护和埋葬作业相隔离的区域，不受噪音和休闲游客的影响。它并不打算成为整个墓地经验的焦点或强烈的视觉元素。该庇护所包括座位为10-20人，一个无盖铺面地区约50个额外的人，一个铺面的地区，一个荣誉卫士，和一个储藏室。

It is located in an area visually isolated from the administrative, maintenance, and burial operations, sheltered from noise and casual visitors. It is not intended to be a focal point or strong visual element of the total cemetery experience. The shelter includes seating for 10-20 people, an uncovered paved area for approximately 50 additional people, a paved area for an Honor Guard, and a storage closet.

在收容所北侧形成的板子混凝土承重墙既支持屋顶，又能保护邻近车道的隐私。该掩体由胶水层合上层建筑组成，位于南侧的木柱上，并在北侧的混凝土承重墙上形成浇铸。收容中心的屋顶由三个相互抵消的小屋顶组成。屋面结构由舌、槽木铺装、青铜色立缝金属屋面组成。

A board formed concrete bearing wall on the north side of the committal shelter provides both support for the roof and privacy from the adjacent drive. The shelter is comprised of glue–laminated superstructures resting on wood columns on the south side and on board formed cast in place concrete bearing wall on the north side. The roof of the committal shelter consists of three small roofs offset from one another. The roof construction is composed of tongue and groove wood decking under bronze colored standing seam metal roofing.
