Services
Pre-engineered steel supply
Our pre-engineered steel supply service delivers precision-manufactured components for efficient construction. We use the VP Command System to ensure accurate measurements and material optimization. This approach reduces waste and labor costs while maintaining structural integrity. Clients benefit from faster project timelines and cost-effective solutions tailored to their specific requirements.
Steel erection services
Our steel erection services combine advanced engineering with experienced field crews to ensure rapid, safe installation. We coordinate closely with construction teams to maintain project schedules. The use of pre-fabricated components minimizes on-site adjustments, reducing labor hours and potential errors. This results in faster completion times and consistent quality across all projects.
Architectural planning
We provide comprehensive architectural planning services that integrate aesthetic requirements with structural functionality. Our team collaborates with architects to create customized designs that meet building codes and client specifications. This includes 3D virtual tours and daylighting solutions that enhance natural lighting while maintaining structural efficiency.
LEED-certified construction
Our LEED-certified construction services focus on sustainable building practices and energy-efficient designs. We incorporate eco-friendly materials and systems that reduce environmental impact. Projects like the Bentley Arena demonstrate our ability to achieve LEED Platinum status through innovative insulation, energy recovery systems, and sustainable site development.
Custom design solutions
We offer custom design solutions that address unique project challenges, such as the 110-foot clear span requirement for the Standard Builders Inc. project. Our team develops specialized structural approaches that maintain aesthetic appeal while ensuring functionality. This includes decorative elements like color bands and custom canopies that enhance visual appeal without compromising structural integrity.
