<strong>John</strong> <strong>Wayne</strong> <strong>Airport</strong> - <strong>Terminal</strong> C<br />

McCarthy Building Companies is the general contractor of <strong>Terminal</strong> C. Founded in 1864,<br />

McCarthy Building Companies is one of the oldest construction firms in the United States<br />

offering extensive experience with lightweight concrete.<br />

TXI in the Mix<br />

Catalina Pacific, a Cal Portland Company , supplied over 3,000 cubic yards of lightweight<br />

concrete to Bomel Construction Company Inc , the concrete subcontractor. Catalina Pacific is<br />

a well-known and established ready mix producer in Southern California. They have excellent<br />

testing facilities and extensive experience working with TXI. TXI’s Frazier Park lightweight<br />

aggregate plant (aka. Pacific Custom Materials), also located in California, supplied the<br />

lightweight aggregate.<br />

Both Catalina Pacific and TXI Frazier Park were ready to step up to the challenge of producing<br />

and delivering 3,000 PSI lightweight concrete mix. TXI Frazier Park supplied enough lightweight<br />

aggregate to make 3,089 cubic yards of 110 PCF lightweight concrete – approximately<br />

2,000 cubic yards of lightweight aggregates.<br />

Mr. Ed “Griff” Sparks, Catalina Pacific laboratory manager, and Mr. <strong>John</strong> D. Halverson, the project<br />

sales representative, both summed it well, saying:<br />

”Since service is a key component to our business model, it was a must to require our suppliers to<br />

have the same sense of professionalism. All orders from Catalina Pacific Concrete were professionally<br />

handled, Frazier Park Lightweight Aggregates were delivered with no issues and its quality met<br />

our high quality standards.”<br />

<strong>John</strong> <strong>Wayne</strong> <strong>Airport</strong> is owned and operated by the County of Orange. It is the only commercial airport<br />

and one of two general aviation airports in the county and is located approximately 35 miles south of<br />

Los Angeles, between the cities of Costa Mesa, Irvine and Newport Beach.<br />
