Structural concrete is the other half of our name. Slater forms, reinforces, places and finishes cast-in-place concrete structures for drainage, flood control and site work, from a single headwall to a hillside energy dissipator poured by boom pump.

What we build

  • Cast-in-place walls, slabs and vaults
  • Headwalls, wingwalls, cutoff walls and spillways
  • Energy dissipators, drop structures and outlet works
  • Structural concrete packages on bridges, culverts and pump stations
  • Concrete-only scopes on larger civil jobs

Who hires us

General contractors and developers bring us in when a job has concrete structures they don’t want to self-perform. Public agencies and flood control districts hire us directly for concrete improvements on drainage and flood control facilities.

How we run the work

Our crews handle the forming, rebar placement, pour and finish. We keep forming material, shoring and our own equipment on hand, and we plan the pour (access, pump setup, supply, inspection) before we mobilize. That is how hillside structures with no truck access still go in on schedule.

FAQ

Questions we get about structural concrete

Do you self-perform forming and rebar?

We form, set, place and finish with our own crews. Reinforcing is placed to the shop drawings and checked before every pour so inspections go the first time.

Can you work on remote or steep sites?

Yes. We have poured hillside structures where trucks could not reach the deck and the only way in was a placing boom. We plan access, staging and pump setup before we mobilize.

Do you work as a sub to general contractors?

Most of our structural concrete work is for general contractors and developers. We also contract directly with public agencies on concrete-only packages.

What drawings do you need to price a job?

Structural plans, specifications and the geotechnical report if there is one. Send what you have and our estimator will tell you if anything is missing.
