Hydroelectric Penstocks

Penstocks play a critical role in helping water get to a powerhouse – the heartbeat of a hydroelectric facility. Required to withstand high hydraulic pressure under both static and transient conditions, penstocks are designed, fabricated, and erected to precise specifications for maximum safety and lifespan.  TIW brings decades of experience and expertise in the fabrication and field construction of hydroelectric penstocks.

Historical Moments - 1 of 10 sections of a kiln Destined for USA
Huge section of a kiln; 21 ft. in diameter and 44 ft. long, weighing 83 tons. Built in 1974 at our Eastern Ave Toronto facility. This section was transported to a rail car by a police escorted truck because it had to go the wrong way; against traffic; on Lakeshore Blvd. After travelling by rail it was put aboard a ship destined for the United States.
