Rehabilitation of Runway 13-31 Danielson Airport

The project included designs to rehabilitate the airfield pavements, including the runway, the parallel taxiway, one of the stub taxiways (taxiway ‘B’), and the based aircraft apron at Danielson Airport in Killingly, CT. There were several components of the airfield electrical system that were replaced due to age, including the runway, taxiway, signs, electrical vault, and lighting control systems. Garg provided electrical engineering services, including but not limited to:

• Designing and routing of the power supply side (conduits, cables, fittings, breakers) of the vault to accommodate the new regulators and any upgrades required to support modifications to the vault.
• Providing an existing floor plan to scale showing the existing major components of the vaults and details about systems that were affected and providing examples of these types of floor plans with detailed components to be removed, replaced, or modified.
• Providing a proposed floor plan showing the modifications to be made as part of the project, including new components or components that were moved, cable routing, and other details as needed to provide the Contractor with sufficient information to successfully bid and complete the work.
• Providing an elevation view of the outside of the vault and providing details depicting the mast and antenna for the pilot control system.
• Verifying the existing lighting protection systems (LPS) at the vault were sufficient.
• Designed additional lighting protection, if required, such as lighting rods, grounding wire, and ground rods.
• Providing one-line diagrams for the electrical supply side feeding power to the components of the system, such as the regulator, control panel, and pilot control system.
• Providing technical specifications regarding conformance with required electrical codes and callouts on provided drawings.
