The challenge

What the site needed

A fenced telecom compound, with a steel lattice tower and a raised equipment shelter, needed five new drilled concrete foundations set into its gravel yard, each location flagged out ahead of time.

What we built

The system we designed and installed

The crew augered each hole with a digger derrick inside the fence line, lined it with corrugated casing, and lowered a rebar cage into place with the derrick.

The foundations were poured in tube forms and finished near grade, then the forms came off and the gravel was regraded around them. Drilling, the pour, and the finish took four working days in July 2023.

The outcome

What it means for the site

The compound now has five finished concrete foundations in place beside its equipment shelter.
