After extensive spring flooding, ice damage and severe erosion, access to the Sykeston, North Dakota City Park was extremely limited. After assessing the situation FEMA was forced to replace the existing structure with a new 15’ diameter structural plate pipe.
The contractor who was selected for the job had no experience with assembling a structural plate pipe. To assist the contractor with the installation, the plate was assembled in a staging that was prepared with a solid subgrade. TrueNorth Steel staff were able to assist the contractor with plate layout and, with the help of the TNS team, the plate pipe was built in no time at all. Setting the plate in place and backfilling went very well with no issues.
