LAX West Concourse Electrical Improvements

This project at the Los Angeles International Airport involved re-feeding this gate with new power, cutting over the old 4160 power servicing existing switchgear, removing the 4160 transformers and re-feeding the existing gear out of new 480 volt gear. To do this, Shimmick installed conduit, welded supports, switchgear and Buss Duct over the roof of Gate 123, pulled cable thru some existing conduits, existing live manholes, existing live pull boxes and terminating.

The project was on an accelerated schedule that Shimmick met, even with the unique circumstances of the job and the very strict security and badging process at LAX.

Additional work included roofing demo and repair, stucco removal and repair and welding to existing beams and columns. Shimmick completed the work on the roof without any damage to the finished ceiling below.
