Turning the First Sod of Soil for our Casabamba and Puerto Maldonado FM Sites

26 May 2017

It is 98 days until the 10th Anniversary celebrations at Diospi Suyana.  The countdown is on to getting the Diospi Suyana FM transmission sites finished beforehand if possible.  We will do our best!

Casabamba: a 2.6m deep test pit has been dug for the tower soil to be analysed by the geotech enabling the tower foundations to be designed.  We hope to award the contract for the structural work within the next few days.  The 50m tower for Casabamba has been purchased from our now established supplier ICESE SAC based in Lima.

Puerto Maldonado: the subcontractor has started excavating the large four individual foundations for our 50m high tower, also from our supplier ICESE SAC.  Being the rainforest region, it is hot and humid and there are a lot of biting insects.  It’s not everyone’s cup of tea.
 
Manually excavating soil geotech pit for the 50m tower foundations in Casabamba – it would be unthinkable to do this by hand in affluent places like Australia.
In the Amazon rainforest near the city of Puerto Maldonado, the foundations are being dug for the Diospi Suyana's next 50m high FM broadcast tower.
Here is an AutoCAD drawing plot of our ICESE SAC 50 meter high free standing lattice steel towers for Casabamba and Puerto Maldonado.
