Structural reinforcement & retrofit

A specialty most erectors will not take on. We reinforce existing structures, including occupied facilities, where shoring, sequencing, and field judgment matter as much as the steel itself.

  • Joist reinforcement
  • Beam reinforcement
  • Column reinforcement
  • Coordination with engineers of record

Turnkey steel packages

Single point of accountability for the steel scope. We handle detailing coordination, fabrication, and erection through one PM team and one schedule.

  • Detailing coordination
  • Fabrication through trusted partners
  • DSE or PSS erection by AISC requirements
  • Submittals, RFIs, shop drawings, and field coordination
