Rocket test cantilever concreting needs massive timber tower
Major construction feature is casting concrete overhang that extends 52 ft from remainder of structure; thickness of arm is 40 ft at haunch and 15 ft at outer end; huge cantilever is supported during concreting by 100-ft high timber tower designed for earthquake resistance; new facility will be capable of testing rocket engines having as much as 1,000,000 lb of thrust.
