Bridge Construction
Herberger Construction specializes in building durable bridges using advanced techniques like Continuous Concrete Slab (CCS) and Pretensioned Prestressed Concrete Beam (PPCB) systems. Our expertise covers interstate bypass bridges, historic covered bridge repairs, and complete bridge replacements. With over six decades of experience, we deliver structurally sound solutions that meet modern transportation demands while maintaining historical integrity when required.
Pile Driving
We provide essential pile driving services for bridge foundations and retaining walls using concrete, steel, and timber materials. Our crews install support systems that withstand environmental stresses and heavy loads. This critical infrastructure work ensures long-term stability for transportation projects across varied Midwestern terrain and soil conditions.
Retaining Walls
Our retaining walls support critical infrastructure projects including roadway overpasses and agricultural hillside developments. Engineered for durability, these structures prevent soil erosion while maintaining structural integrity. We construct walls that complement bridge systems and highway projects with precise engineering standards.
Pump Stations
We build pump stations for water management applications including canal supply, land drainage, and sewage transfer systems. These facilities ensure proper water flow control for agricultural and urban infrastructure. Our engineering solutions handle complex hydraulic requirements while maintaining environmental compliance standards.
Culverts
Herberger engineers and installs culverts designed to channel water beneath roadways with lasting effectiveness. Our systems prevent roadway erosion while maintaining traffic flow integrity. These critical drainage components are built to withstand heavy vehicle loads and extreme weather conditions over generations.
