During the 1960's, Hancock Concrete developed arch pipe as large as 169" span, which were used to replace traditional bridge structures. Box culverts and cattle pass were added to the product line in the 1970's. The box culvert has become another prevalent bridge replacement option with structures as large as 14' x 16'. Hancock Concrete's innovation of the 1980's was a large concrete arch structure known as the BEBO system. The company engineers went to Germany and Switzerland to analyze this new bridge concept that was being developed. These large structures are used for stream crossings, underpasses for vehicles and trains, and pedestrian walkways. Hancock constructed the first BEBO bridge structure in the United States for the city of Edina, Minnesota, in 1981. Another innovation in the 1980's was skewed ends for box culverts. When the box culvert goes under the road at an angle rather than perpendicular, the skewed ends line up with the roadway. Also during this period, additional production facilities were added in Cannon Falls and New Ulm, MN. The New Ulm facility has since been relocated to Courtland, MN. There is also a sales office in Minneapolis, MN and a storage yard located east of Moorhead, MN. The operation of Hancock Concrete has been passed through the second generation of Henry's sons, Richard & Gene Schmidgall, and is now under the leadership of Henry's grandsons. Rob is President, Gary is Vice President, Bruce is Inventory & Production Coordinator, and Dave is Director of Maintenance and Service. Hancock Concrete has been a mainstay of the concrete pipe industry and is proud to draw on the abilities of its 194 employees to continue to design, manufacture, and deliver the best concrete products in the industry. They look forward to a challenging and successful future.Hancock Concrete Products Company Address
