One of America’s premier aviation training bases, the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma, Arizona needed a rapidly deployed communication site in order to upgrade its system without a long-term shutdown. The site, located on a remote mountain called Baker’s Peak, had very difficult access for vehicles and construction equipment.
Oldcastle Precast Communications teamed up with Oldcastle Services to demolish the old site and towers, prepare the new site, and install a precast cell block foundation, three communication towers and a precast 1,200-square-foot MaxiMod Shelter. The entire project was completed in eight working days and resulted in two additional projects that were awarded to Oldcastle based on our performance.
