Every now and again we get a special request. This is a project we have been working on with the State of Alabama for a new boat ramp in Moundville on the Black Warrior River. The contractor was concerned about the gravel base they installed for the ramp, rolling up under the push in slab and affecting the finished elevations of the ramp. The contractor purchased these 6" I-beams for the slab to slide on and to support it as they push the slab into the water. We assisted the contractor in setting these I-beams at the correct elevation and slope. Pretty neat change of pace Friday job.
