Specifications and Photos - Franklin Co.pdf

This is a specifications and photographs document for the Franklin County Department of Transportation regarding communication tower removal services in Iowa. The document provides detailed information about an Allstate-manufactured tower (Model F00398A) located at the DOT garage in Latimer, Iowa (coordinates: 42°47'57.4"N, 93°21'31.0"W). The tower, originally installed in 2011, stands 180 feet tall and is equipped with side-mounted DB224 antennas and associated cabling. The tower is situated adjacent to an ISICS Franklin #33 tower and is landlocked, necessitating specialized removal equipment and expertise. Original installation drawings are included in the document, though the weight specifications for individual sections and the total tower weight could not be verified.

The removal project presents specific logistical challenges requiring a professional crane and tower crew due to the landlocked nature of the site and proximity to existing infrastructure. The document indicates that the specifications and photographs provided are for reference purposes only and do not constitute a guarantee of the tower's actual configuration. Bidders should note that site conditions, access limitations, and the necessity for specialized equipment are critical factors in preparing proposals for this tower removal service. No pricing information, contract value, incumbent contractor details, proposal due dates, or award timelines are specified in this document; these details would be contained in the full solicitation or RFP materials.
