Borough Steel Transmission Pole
In June 2011 Eastern Caisson
completed a turnkey foundation for a steel transmission pole for the
Borough of Chambersburg, PA. The job consisted of drilling a 72"
diameter caisson 25' deep thru 10' of rock. Eastern Caisson supplied
and placed temporary casing, the rebar cage and concrete, placed and
aligned the anchor bolts, formed the caisson above ground, and hauled
the drilling spoils from the job site.
What made the project unique was the proximity to existing overhead power lines and guy wires, working along an existing roadway, and the rock excavation. Eastern was capable of performing the work by utilizing its low clearance drill rig consisting of a CAT 330DL with a Bay Shore Systems LoDril DH60 attachment which provided the necessary clearance from the power lines and the power to excavate the rock within the estimated time frame. ![]() 108"
Cell Tower Foundation in North Brunswick, New Jersey
Eastern Caisson completed a 108"
diameter 31' deep cell tower foundation in North Brunswick, New Jersey.
Eastern mobilized their Calweld 155 mounted on a 118 Linkbelt. The extra power was needed because the foundation required 21' of rock to be removed to reach design elevation. A 102" diameter cage, consisting of 36 #11 Bar's (30' 6" in length) was set into place with our 118 Linkbelt 60 Ton crane. A 108" diameter form was placed to give the caisson its required 1' reveal and a 44 bolt anchor bolt assembly was set and leveled. 80 yards of concrete was then placed to finish the caisson.
