Here are some pictures from a challenging two sided 14 by 48 digital sign installation on the Florida State Fairgrounds in Tampa Florida. Selective Structures did the fabrication and install. Formetco supplied the digital sign. The installation was complicated because it occurred in an extremely wet area next to a pond. Here’s a picture story of construction.
Constructing a road to the site due to the wet ground.
A steel sleeve was inserted into the ground to prevent the foundation from collapsing. The sleeve was 10 feet high.
The sleeve was cut off 2 feet above the ground.

The foundation was 36 feet deep.
