Why TrueNorth Steel
MULTIPLE CULVERT REHABILITATION SERVICE OPTIONS
TrueLiner™
As America’s infrastructure ages, owners, contractors and engineers are challenged to determine effective methods to keep roads and bridges functional and safe for users. The most common structures, and in many cases the oldest structures, are culverts and small bridges. These critical structures are often in either high traffic areas or they are in remote areas and either condition makes removal and replacement costly and disruptive. Rehabilitation is usually the lower total cost alternative to removal and replacement and TrueNorth Steel’s® TrueLiner™ is a highly effective way to repair and upgrade culverts and small bridges.
TrueLiner™ is a slip lining method that utilizes sections of weathering steel liner sections manufactured specifically for each project to provide the optimal shape and size required to maintain hydraulic capacity and or passage of vehicles and pedestrians.
