Nucor-Yamato Expanding Piling Production at Blytheville

Nucor-Yamato Steel Co., a joint venture between Nucor and Yamato Kogyo Co. Ltd., has approved a $115 million plan to expand the production of hot-rolled sheet piling. The project at Nucor's steel mill in Blytheville, Ark., is expected to be completed in early 2014.

Upon completion, the project will add several new sheet piling sections, increasing the single sheet widths by 22 percent and providing a lighter, stronger sheet covering more area at a lower installed cost. The new sections will provide Nucor’s piling distributor customers with the broadest range of American-made piling solutions available, Nucor claims. The company’s sheet and H-piling products service applications including marine construction, bridge and highway construction, heavy civil construction, storm protection, underground commercial parking and environment containment projects in the infrastructure and construction industry.

"This investment enhances Nucor-Yamato Steel's ability to make innovative, cost-effective sheet piling designs. These investments not only enhance our steel industry leadership status, but most importantly position Nucor to meet the growing demands of our customers," says Daniel R. DiMicco, Nucor's chairman and chief executive officer.
