Projects - SSAB Steel Plate Mill

TARSCO, A TF Warren Company, was chosen as the preferred contractor to erect the QL-6 Main Filtration Tank as part of the SSAB expansion project for a new advanced line of quenched and tempered steel plate at their facility in Axis, AL.  TARSCO was awarded full project Engineering, Procurement, Fabrication, Construction, and Coatings (EPFCC) responsibilities for the 100’ x 48’ cone roof tank including all civil, foundation, coatings, tank insulation, and electrical implementation work.

The tanks unique components consisted of a 100’ long stainless steel filtration wall with removable modules, full access catwalk, monorail supports, access doors, and internal ladders which were detailed using our state-of-the-art 3D imagery design.

TARSCO utilized the REDIPLATE ™ process, developed by TF Warren Company’s Blastech Company. This process removes all mill scale from the steel plate and is then protected with inorganic zinc coating which is a weldable coating.  Final coatings were performed by Blastco, another TF Warren Company, which specializes in shop and field coatings.  SSAB’s utilization of TF Warren Companies, TARSCO, Blastech and Blastco, under their unique single point of focus Project Management system places all the responsibility for a turnkey solution with one company thereby insuring exceptional results at a cost savings to the end user.

We continue to pride ourselves on holding our commitment to safety, quality, and customer relations paramount above all else.  Proper training, communication and self-awareness provided an incident free workplace throughout construction.  Field crews completed this project maintaining a 100% radiography success rate.
