PROCESS

OHL is a very specialized type of construction requiring years of experience, as well as equipment and tools that have been designed, tried, and proven to do the work. Because transmission of electrical power is normally at higher voltages (From 66kV upto 400kV). The main steps in OHL design and engineering are as follows:

  • Planning and Routing
  • Civil engineering Services
  • Assembly Services
  • Network Services
  • Construction of access road and platforms (both hilly and plain terrain)
  • Construction of foundation (Pile, pad & chimney and rock anchor type)
  • Tower material segregation
  • Ground assembly and tower erection
  • Stringing of conductor
  • Stringing of OPGW
  • Testing and commissioning

CONTRACTING SERVICES

General contracting, often referred to as a traditional delivery system, allows the owner to engage with the architect/engineer to prepare the design of the entire project. Upon design completion, the project scope is competitively bid to a construction firm for a fixed lump sum.

Our responsibilities when serving as the General Contractor include:

  • Providing all materials, labor, equipment and services.
  • Subcontracting with various trade and specialty contractors
  • Applying or assisting in the application process for permits
