Gerdau is supplying more than 12,000 tons of reinforcing steel for a $791-million runway expansion at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in Broward County, Fla., one of the fastest-growing airports in the nation. The south runway will be widened from 100 ft to 150 ft and lengthened from 5,276 ft to 8,000 ft, providing space for two parallel runways than can accommodate 27% more flights. The impressive design includes a gradually rising slope toward the east, reaching a six-story height that is supported by a retaining wall.
