| 摘要： | A concrete paving constractor in Florida reports success in a range of projects. Brevard Concrete Paving started small, with one truck and trailer, and the firm's initial projects were jobs such as the installation of residential kerbs, pedestrian walkways and driveways. Soon, the firm had branched out to a wide range of duties such as paving filling station areas and work for the Florida Department of Transportation. As the firm grew, the projects it was asked to complete continued to grow in size and complexity, which meant the types of equipment to build them also needed to expand. Brevard Concrete poured kerbing for a few years using two Power Curber 150 Extruders that were bought in 2017 and 2019. Then, as needs grew, the firm ordered a 5700-D curb and gutter machine that was delivered in 2020. It was immediately put into service, and in 2021, the company slipformed nearly 24,400 linear metres of kerb with it. As the work expanded even further and the company realised it needed an additional tool, a Power Curber 7700 Multipurpose Machine was ordered. The firm won the contract to expand an aircraft taxiway at what used to be Patrick Air Force Base. Located just a little south of Cape Canaveral, the base is now Patrick Space Force Base, one of six active installations of the new service branch. Patrick was originally a Naval Air Station, opened in 1940, and then turned over to the Air Force in 1948. The recent change in status for the installation meant that improvements were needed to increase capacity. |
