Project: Emergency Rail Replacement
Complex 40, Cape Canaveral Air Station
Estimated and served as onsite supervision for rapid response to demolish the existing Mobile Service Tower Rail System from the parked position to the rollup locked position when the Mobile Service Tower is mated to the Umbilical Tower.

These were removed, transported, off loaded, and stored at Complex 37. We then built the new foundations utilizing a Symons Form system. The new rail system consisted of approximately 600,000 lbs of formed and tied rebar, 3,000 yards of special mix concrete, integral formed electrical cable trays, drainage systems, and a built-in electrical vault. After the form systems were removed, the foundation system was backfilled and the pad surface was restored with new asphalt. This contract was performed in 42 calendar days, and the construction team was paid a $90,000.00 incentive bonus for early completion.
Value of Contract $1.89 Million
Support of Titan IV at Complex 41
Martin Marietta, Cape Canaveral Air Station
Estimated and managed the installation of all ground support equipment in the lower AGE on Launch Pad 41 that included the fuels, oxidizer, and inert gas service panels that provided commodity services to the Centaur Upper Stage rocket that rides a top the Titan IV launch vehicle. The systems were installed on the mobile service tower, the umbilical tower and the mobile launch platform. Additionally we built and installed a two-stage pressure reducing station for the environmental control system that provided cooled Gaseous Nitrogen to the launch vehicle to precluded hydrogen gas build up during critical launch phases. These systems operated at 70 inches of static pressure and delivered the Gaseous Nitrogen to the launch vehicle through 20 double walled aluminum ducts. The project was manned by 100 workers and was coordinated with efforts of multiple trades and contractors on-site. All work was performed within time constraints required to meet the Titan IV vehicle launch schedules.

NASA, Vandenberg Air Force Base, CA & John F Kennedy Space Center, FL Relocate Orbiter Access Platforms VAFB to KSC
Served as Project Manager for project to disassemble the US Air Force Orbiter (Space Shuttle) access platforms located in the Orbiter Check Out Facility Building V-19, a hanger located at Vandenberg Air Force Base in South Central California. The platforms and all on board mechanical/electrical systems were disassembled and packaged for sea voyage, into nine manageable pieces the largest weigh approximately 120 tons. They were placed on bogies (wheel assemblies) and transported to an ocean dock and placed on a barge for oceanic transport to Kennedy Space Center. This required careful coordination with regard to removal of structural, mechanica1 and electrical systems as they had to be reassembled at the Kennedy Space Center. Once the orbiter access platforms arrived at KSC they were reassembled relative to their X,Y and Z axis positions that were recorded in California so that they could be place back into service and used to process the new orbiter Endeavor that replaced the orbiter Challenger.
Value of Contract $10 Million
