PROJECT INFORMATION
Project Title: Replace AFN Radio Transmission Tower, Camp Kinser
Project Location: Okinawa, Japan
Product Service Code (PSC): Z2BG – Repair or Alteration of Electronic and Communication Facility
NAICS Code: 236220 – Commercial and Institutional Building Construction
Project Magnitude: Between ¥100,000,000,000 and ¥500,000,000,000 (Japanese Yen) (FARS 36.204)
Construction Type: Design-Bid-Build (DBB) Construction
Project Description:
This project is to replace the American Forces Network (AFN) 300-feet (91.44 meters) Amplitude Modulation (AM) medium frequency antenna system tower and install new radials. The project is located at Camp Kinser transmitter site, near Building 951, Okinawa, Japan. The existing AFN AM radio transmission tower antenna system at Camp Kinser will be replaced by a new cylindrical guyed tower antenna system. The new Antenna System will consist of a new cylindrical guyed tower mast, Antenna Tuning Unit (ATU) and bonded guy wire to the top of the tower (insulated such to provide an effective 379.5-feet (115.67 meters) of antenna length). Electrical scope of work will include the removal of the existing overhead power feeder for the existing tower, and provision of new underground feeder, new LED fencepost lighting and weatherproof receptacles, and power connections to supplement the function of the new antenna system. Structural work will include demolition and provision of a new AFN Radio Transmission tower system and the demolition and provision of new tower and guy wire foundations. Civil work scope will include support to construction activities such as minor grading work for the new Antenna Tuning Unit (ATU) pad and areas directly above new foundations, removal and providing new typical precast concrete chain link fence around the area directly below the tower that will be affected by the tower demolition work, and fence affected by the required site access to the project.
