         This Amendment No. 10 amends and  supplements the Schedule 13D filed on
March 5, 1990 as amended by Amendments  Nos. 1 through 9 (the "Schedule 13D") by
the UNR  Asbestos-Disease  Claims Trust (the "Trust") with respect to the Common
Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of UNR Industries, Inc., a
Delaware  corporation  ("UNR"). All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and
not  otherwise  defined  herein have the  meaning  ascribed to such terms in the
Schedule 13D.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.
- -------  -----------------------

         Item 4 of the  Schedule 13D is hereby  amended by adding the  following
paragraph immediately before the final paragraph of such Item:


         The Trust has reviewed its investment in UNR and has determined it will
explore a possible sale of its block of Common Stock to a potential  acquiror of
UNR, merger or recapitalization of UNR, or a future sale of its shares in one or
more public or private  offerings.  The Trust is in the process of  retaining an
investment  banker to advise the Trust with respect to its options and to assist
the Trust in  implementing  a program  to  achieve  the  Trust's  objectives  of
maximizing the value of its investment in UNR and liquidating such investment as
promptly as it is practical to do so.


                                    SIGNATURE


         After reasonable  inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
certify that the information  set forth in this statement is true,  complete and
correct.
