Item 13.  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
          ----------------------------------------------

         Messrs. Roger W. Thiltgen and T. Richard Mathews have an ownership
interest in DIASU Building Inc. which leases office space to the Company under
agreement providing for monthly rental payments of $9,952. The Company's
management believes that the terms of these leases are no less favorable to the
Company than those which could be obtained from an unaffiliated third party.

         On March 1, 1994, the Company acquired all of the Capital Stock of
Brown-Minneapolis Tank & Fabricating Co. ("BMT") from Mr. Irwin Jacobs. The
consideration paid by the Company to Mr. Jacobs was comprised of the following:
(i) $11,515,000 in cash; (ii) 1,600,000 shares of Common Stock; (iii) a
$500,000 unsecured subordinated promissory note; and (iv) contingent annual
cash payments for a period of five years beginning as of October 1, 1993, in an
amount equal to 50% of the BMT Calculated Profit Amount (as defined in the
Stock Purchase Agreement) for each of the fiscal years ended September 30, 1994
through 1998, inclusive; provided, however that in no event shall the aggregate
contingent payments to Mr. Jacobs exceed $9,000,000. For fiscal years 1995 and
1996 this contingent purchase consideration amounted to $424,000 and
$1,355,000, respectively.
