MOP Towers Repair and Replacement
Kelsey Structural provided the structural design/retrofit of (13) existing 48’ tall wood framed guard towers, (2) existing 60’ steel towers, and new foundations for (3) 60’+ steel towers at Naval Base Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Poor soil conditions, high winds and seismicity, and the marine environment required careful design considerations and detailing to provide cost-efficient repair solutions for the existing towers. The project design followed the provisions and requirements of the current NAVFAC building code.
