RUSH Construction excels in the performance of challenging and difficult projects. Some of the projects pictured above, completed at the Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Station over the years, include the KSC Utility Shop Facility, Life Support Facility, Fire Station No 2, Roof Fall Protection, LC39B Water Tower, and Space Launch Complex 40 and 41 Lightning Mitigation Systems (see below).
