Wind Generator - Rebar "Cage"


On August 12th, a crew of two showed with a heavy pickup and flatbed trailer with a lot of rebar on it. They went to the marked tower site and became constructing a most interesting contraption they called a Cage. They explained that the cage will go in the hole and provide the reinforcement of the base on which the equipment will be constructed.
The Cage is 16'6" in length so that 6 inches or so is out of the ground to reinforce the six inches of concrete required to be above the ground.
