Progress continues on Phase 1 of Sabal Aviation’s Hangar Development project at Melbourne International Airport, with the successful completion of the second concrete slab pour. This stage marks a critical step in the foundation work and sets the pace for the structural development of the new aviation facilities.
The pour took place under precise scheduling and coordination with our on-site teams, ensuring proper curing conditions and high structural integrity.

With Florida’s fluctuating weather patterns, timing was everything, and our crews worked efficiently to deliver quality without compromise.
This second slab pour completes the foundation of the Phase 1 hangar units, designed to accommodate heavy-duty aviation activity and provide direct access to the runway. As part of our ongoing commitment to excellence, contractor Brandon Development is partnering with aviation engineers to ensure all infrastructure meets FAA compliance and future-proof operational needs.
As we look ahead to vertical construction, the groundwork laid ensures resilience, durability, and performance. Stay tuned for more updates as we begin forming the structural skeleton of the hangar in the coming weeks.
