Components

73" ground solar screws, rail components

Maybrook 1 & 2 is a fixed-tilt solar system constructed on approximately 45 acres of land just south of Poughkeepsie, NY. This project utilizes the state-of-the-art Titan Duo Fixed-tilt technology system produced by APA Solar Racking. Considering the geographical location of the project, a system was needed that could withstand category 5 hurricane winds of up to 160mph, and snow loads of up to 100 pounds per foot.

Rated at 8 Megawatts, Maybrook 1&2 in Montgomery, NY utilized approx. 35 tons of 73” hot dipped galvanized ground screws as the foundation for the solar racking system. Montgomery is known for harsh weather year-round and rocky terrain, so a solar racking system was needed that could both penetrate the rough soil and perform during the most intense inclement weather. With the lowest part count per MW, the TITAN system offers ease of installation allowing projects to meet tight schedules. From start to finish, the project lasted about 9 months; with finished galvanized screws shipping to the jobsite in January 2025, the system being online in September 2025. A notable benefit is this project has the potential to power 800 homes, which reduces the electricity rates for those consumers.

Protecting America's Infrastructure One Dip at a Time

Connesville Bridge

Crawford Avenue Bridge's $11.5 million rehabilitation project replaced the 65-year-old structure with a 490-foot, six-span steel stringer bridge featuring hot-dip galvanized girders, cross frames, and splice plates for corrosion protection near the Youghiogheny River. The new design includes expanded vehicle capacity, a seven-foot bike lane, and six-foot sidewalk for enhanced pedestrian and bicycle safety.

Northside Transit Center

The Northside Transit Center is the culmination of many years of effort to improve the public transportation infrastructure in the Northside community. Metro broke ground on the transit facility at the end of October 2019, and just less than a year later, bus service began.

Assonet River Bridge

The south coastal rail project is to provide a new southern line of the MBTA commuter rail system that will restore service between Boston and Southeastern Massachusetts.

Magnum Piering, Inc.

When driving steel piling into the ground, who knows what the steel may come into contact with. Moisture, minerals, acids, rocks, tree roots, the list can go on and on.
