NIPSCO Flue Gas Desulphurization
Walters provided structural steel to the Babcock & Wilcox Construction company, who were carrying out a $75-million refurbishment of the Northern Indiana Public Service Company’s R.M. Schahfer Generating Station. The generating station supplies power to the people of Wheatfield, Indiana.
- 2,400 tons of steel distributed across multiple structures
Walters completed all the detailing and fabrication of structural and non-structural steel. We also handled all logistics for delivery to Indiana and performed the installation on-site.
Despite logistical challenges, including coordinating with other trades on the installation of mechanical platforms, this project was fast-tracked, finishing two months ahead of schedule. The client had requested that the erection be completed within 9 months. We were able to top off the project and reduce the erection schedule from nine months to seven.
