SUTTON (416) 722-8343 Moris Por pili Mortgage Broker T.F. ak: ' Steel-plate culvert under construction Work should be completed in the next few weeks on construction of a culvert under Regional Road 8 just west of the New Scugog Arena. The culvert is not the familiar concrete box kind that has seen widespread use under Ontario roads. The one under construc- tion is called a multi-plate pipe arch, and when the two sections are completed it will be 112 feet long, nine feet wide, twelve feet high, 27,000 pounds and it will sit more than twelve feet under Regional Road 8. } While this kind of culvert construction is not exactly new, it.is getting more and more use in Durham Region for several reasons. The first is speed and convenience. Not counting excavating and back-filling, the actual assembly time by three workers is about two weeks. This means that traffic disruption during con- struction can be kept at a minimum. Another advantage is cost. The construction of this kind of culvert is cheaper than the concrete box kind. A crane is used to lower the sections of steel plate into place. Workers bolt them together lightly and then go over the bolts later on with an air compressor: Three men and a crane operator are working on the actual assembly, and if all goes well the second section should be ready for back-fil- ling by the middle of next - week.
