was to be utilized for the second and not the
first shot, it was decided to set all wall and

ceiling reinforcing steel and weld rather than tie

it; the cage of the reinforcing steel was then cut
one foot from the floor and moved out of the

line of sight. After the first experiment, the cage
was set back in place and two splices were welded on to tie the cage to the steel protruding

out of the base. The station was then formed

and poured monolithically. This procedure proved to be very satisfactory due to thecritical
time element.

Station 1311.04 - 80% Complete

In order to retain cover over Station

1311.04 during high tides, a 15-foot retaining

wall was built on the ocean side of the building
by driving rail piles in the reef and covering
them with planking. A total of 1,032 cubic
yards of concrete was used for these stations
with an average 28-day cylinder break of 3,733

of plus 16 feet. The platform was located on an
existing slab next to Station 24. A User-furnished detector was mounted on the station at

an elevation of plus 17 feet. Five pair of signal
wire were run from Stations 1312.01 to 1311.04.

No power was required.

These stations were heavily reinforced concrete underground pits in which User-furnished
coaxial cable was spliced and branched off to
various detector stations. Station 1314 was 12’4” x 11'-8" x 11'-6” high with 2’-6 inch walls and
