Data Structures continues to progress the replacement of an existing 62m UM50 radio mast in the Midlands of Ireland with a new 62m SLX4T Radio Mast, due for completion this summer.

The project has involved several significant site restrictions, requiring careful planning, phased delivery works and continuous engagement with both our client and their customers to ensure minimal disruption throughout the programme.

Key challenges on site included:

  • Restricted site access due to a low SWL stream crossing, preventing concrete trucks, delivery vehicles and crane access. To overcome this, the mast installation is being carried out using double-certified gin poles to maintain lifting SWL compliance.
  • Antenna line-of-sight and path profile constraints, requiring detailed coordination to determine the optimum mast elevation and phased installation sequencing alongside planned radio outages.
  • Maintaining and improving existing radio coverage throughout the transition phase, involving commissioning of the new mast and RF antenna arrays before the phased decommissioning of the existing structure.

The completed infrastructure will support improved communications capability while ensuring continuity of service during the transition period.

Interestingly, the existing UM50 mast being replaced was originally installed more than 30 years ago by members of the current Data Structures team, highlighting decades of experience in delivering critical communications infrastructure across Ireland and the UK.
