Blackford County Fixed Wireless Broadband Infrastructure

The project encompasses work at several sites. Each site will consist of a 40’ x 40’ compound that contains a three-legged, 180’ tall fixed wireless broadband communication tower, an 8’ x 8’ fiberglass equipment shelter, an electrical transformer, and an electrical service disconnect switch on a pole. Each compound will be surfaced in gravel. The foundation for each tower will consist of three concrete piers, extending into the ground and onto a reinforced concrete mat foundation. The shelters, generators, and transformers will have concrete bases. Each compound is enclosed with a chain link fence with barbed wire along the top. The project will be bid and constructed using multiple trade packages. The following packages are bid at this time: Trade Package 03C: Cast-in-Place Concrete Trade Package 13: Pre-Fabricated Equipment Shelters Trade Package 26: Electrical Trade Package 31: Earthwork Trade Package 32F: Chain Link Fence Trade Package 35TL: Self-Supported Tower (Labor Only) Trade Package 35TM: Self-Supported Tower (Material Only)
