Segment Reporting [Abstract]

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

BUSINESS SEGMENTS

In the fourth quarter of 2015, the Company changed its reportable segment structure to improve transparency. The Company now has five reportable segments and its management structure was changed to align with this new reporting structure. A new reportable segment, Energy & Mining, includes the businesses primarily serving the energy and mining end markets. This segment includes the access systems applications businesses and offshore structures business that was formerly part of the Engineered Infrastructure Products (EIP) segment, and the grinding media business that was formerly included in the "Other" category. The remaining businesses from the EIP segment was also renamed "Engineered Support Structures". The last change in the reporting structure was moving the tubing business from the "Other" category to the Irrigation segment. Prior year information in this footnote has been updated to match the new reportable segment structure.

Reportable segments are as follows:

ENGINEERED SUPPORT STRUCTURES: This segment consists of the manufacture of engineered metal

structures and components for the global lighting and traffic, wireless communication, and roadway safety

industries;

ENERGY AND MINING: This segment, all outside of the United States, consists of the manufacture of

access systems applications, forged steel grinding media, on and off shore oil, gas, and wind energy structures;

UTILITY SUPPORT STRUCTURES: This segment consists of the manufacture of engineered steel and

concrete structures for the global utility industry;

COATINGS: This segment consists of galvanizing, anodizing and powder coating services on a global

basis; and

IRRIGATION: This segment consists of the manufacture of agricultural irrigation equipment and related

parts and services for the global agricultural industry and tubular products for industrial customers.

Due to the business reorganization and restructuring activities that occurred in 2015, there are no longer business operations included in Other for fiscal 2016. In 2015, the Company had other businesses and activities that individually were not more than 1% of consolidated sales.

The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 1. The Company evaluates the performance of its business segments based upon operating income and invested capital. The Company does not allocate interest expense, non-operating income and deductions, or income taxes to its business segments.
