WIND TOWER GONE - AN UPDATE
Submitted by Jeff Buster@rea... on Sun, 01/29/2006 - 23:52.
When I drove by the back of the Science Center on January 24th, the three steel turbine tower sections were gone. Just the brown lawn - dead where the tower had been stored.
I assume the tower had been craned onto a low bed and taken to a welding shop where it would be set up in a straight line on a series of rollers and welded back together AND radiographed.
Question: wouldn't it have been more cost effective to take it directly to the welding fabricator without the pit stop at the GLSC? Someone fill me in please.
