The superstructure of the elevated antenna bay will be a combination of structural steel and reinforced concrete. The research laboratory facility will consist of research and test labs and meeting space. The superstructure of the antenna silo will consist of fabricated structural members and plate steel. However, construction of the silo foundation only is within scope of the project. Supply and erection of the tower is NOT in scope. Site improvements will include site storm drainage, a new access road to the site that also connects with the existing northerly access road, and asphalt parking areas. Decommissioning and demolition of the existing structures is required once the proposed new facility is constructed and online. Work is expected to be performed in phases sequentially.
