Fabrication workflow
From approved drawings to shipped segments: the steps of a typical steel bridge fabrication project.
Fabrication
Fabrication capabilities
How steel bridge structures are fabricated, assembled, inspected and prepared for shipment.
Shop drawings and detailing
How design drawings become fabrication drawings, and what is checked during approval.
Welding procedures and welder qualification
Qualified procedures, qualified welders and documented inspection are the basis of weld quality.
Trial assembly
Assembling segments in the shop to confirm fit and geometry before shipment.
Tolerances and camber
Geometric tolerances and camber, and how they are measured and recorded.
Verified fabrication data
Specific capacity figures are provided on request for your project.
