Structural Steel Procurement and Building Erection

Structural steel construction provides the framework for industrial facilities requiring long spans, heavy loads, or specialized configurations. Property developers and facility owners throughout the DFW Metroplex choose structural steel when building requirements exceed the capabilities of other systems. We manage complete structural steel packages from procurement through erection and connection completion.

Steel procurement begins during preconstruction with identification of fabricators meeting project requirements. We evaluate capabilities, schedules, and pricing to recommend suppliers. Early procurement decisions are critical-fabrication lead times can exceed 16 weeks for complex projects.

Fabrication coordination ensures shop drawings accurately reflect project requirements. We review submittals, track fabrication progress, and coordinate delivery sequencing with erection needs. Close communication with fabricators prevents field conflicts that impact schedule and cost.

Steel erection requires experienced crews working with appropriate equipment. We plan erection sequences that maintain stability during construction while optimizing productivity. Bolting, welding, and connection completion follow engineered specifications and applicable codes.

Structural steel integrates with other building systems-foundations, metal decking, concrete, and cladding. We coordinate sequencing so that following trades can proceed efficiently. Completion of connections and protection coatings prepares structures for subsequent work.
