Fire-distorted structural steel straightened in place
Fire severely distorted 250 structural steel members in 6 bays of Ballistic Missile Early Warning System Transmitter-Computer Building at Clear, Alaska; some of longer members suffered lateral deflections of 3 ft; to save time and costs of replacing these members, they were repaired in place; special straightening method used oxyacetylene torch with heavy duty tip and hydraulic jack mounted on post to exert constant force on beams being straightened.
