Metal Fabrication Design
Structural steel fabrication is the framework of our daily lives, from agriculture hoppers and silos to petroleum tank-access ladders and stairs to utility water towers and tanks. Southern Metal Fabricators has spent more than 32 years fabricating steel structures and their essential support systems and components.
Plus, we’ve invested in a fleet of industry-leading automation for materials processing in order to serve as your off-site structural processing center. Below are just a few of our custom, structural steel fabrication and processing capabilities.
We also provide front-end design services as part of our full-service custom metal fabrication offering. So if you know basically what you need, but aren’t sure how to get there, our in-house engineers can develop your concept into a properly certified specification. Just give us whatever you have — “stick man” drawings on the backs of paper napkins are perfectly acceptable — and we’ll work it up.
If your custom metal fabrication project requires it, we’ll also collaborate with professional engineers from other disciplines to make sure everything is done right.
Projects we regularly provide design and engineering services for include:
All of these projects require knowledge of metal, but also regulations, such as those developed by Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the American Welding Society. Because we do so many of these types of jobs, our engineers know what to anticipate and can ensure that any design-build plans are up to code before any fabrication begins.
If you’ve got a design (or even just an idea) and are looking for a custom metal fabrication shop that can run with it, contact us or call us at 1-800-989-1330.
