El Zagal Flood Wall, Fargo ND photo

Rapidly deployable aluminum stop logs from TK (Thyssenkrupp-Bautechnik) supplied by Prairie Supply Inc and installed by Reiner Contracting are put to the test in Fargo ND. The system was erected in under 20 minutes, proving its effectiveness during a flood emergency.

  • Location: Fargo , North Dakota
  • Industry: Flood Control
  • Completion: Oct 21, 2016

Products & Services Used:

  • U.S. Army Corps of Engineers & DOT Specifications
  • Flood Protection Services
  • Aluminum Stop Log System

This floodwall is just south of the El Zagal golf course on Elm Street in Fargo. The project was constructed by Reiner contracting out of Hutchinson, MN for the Fargo Diversion authority. The 64’ wide road closure has 7 center posts and is 8 stop-logs tall or about 6 ft. These pictures are from the test assembly done by the contractor for the city employees and the engineers. Once the main flood wall was completed and the framework for the removable portion installed, the road closure section can be installed and removed in less than 15 minutes. This flood fighting technology eliminates the need for sand bagging, dike construction and other labor intensive and slow to assemble temporary flood fighting solutions.

City of Fargo Employees and Contractor's with Reiner assemble the deployable stop logs for the road closure section of El Zagal Floodwall in less than 20 minutes. This flood fighting solution is quick, relyable and much more aesthetically pleasing for any park or cityscape than dirt dikes and sand bags.

The 57 North and BSA Surgical Center is a state of the art $12 million facility that is currently being constructed in north Bismarck by Kraus Anderson Construction Company. This project is a great example of how Prairie Supply works to get involved in every aspect of the project that we are capable of. We have been working on this project since the start of the budget proposals and are currently working with Glass Concrete on the foundations where we provide the rebar, materials, and forming. We will be supplying Herzog Coatings with all the waterproofing and foundation insulation along with working directly for Kraus Anderson on the masonry rebar, shoring, and potentially winter heat. There has been a lot of people from Prairie Supply involved and they have all shown a great team effort in making it all happen for our customers. Read More
