Manure Overpass Saves Time And Money
 ✖  |
Professional manure hauler Chad Tasch no longer worries about working around roads...he just goes over them. Where once he would lay dragline hose for half a mile or more to get to a culvert, his manure overpass saves time, and that saves money.
“I came up with the idea when a neighboring landowner refused to let us run pipe across his land to get across a road,” says Tasch, Tasch Custom, LLC. “I had to lay 3/4-mile of pipe to get around him. Now I can set up my bridge in about 2 hrs. Tearing it down when I’m finished takes only half an hour.”
Tasch worked with Halbach Welding, a local metal worker, to design and bend the pipes. The pipeline bridge exceeds the 13-ft., 9-in. height and 33 ft. from the center of the road requirements for Wisconsin road overpasses. End supports are designed to rest in the roadside ditches, out of the way of passing traffic.
“The end supports are very stable and don’t need to be tied down or anchored,” says Tasch. “There’s no vibration from the liquids being pumped through it.”
Tasch uses a telehandler to assemble the 20-piece pipeline bridge. It can also be used to cross streams.
Tasch used his patent pending manure bridge for five seasons before offering it for sale. He says he wanted to be confident it would work. With more than 30 setups and removals behind him, he feels it has proven itself. He says pricing of the unit depends on the size of the pipe it’s designed to support.
