Our Expertise

Expert Steel Erection Across Diverse Industries

The structural steel erection industry serves critical sectors, including commercial construction, public infrastructure, and heavy manufacturing. At WeldIT, we provide specialized erection techniques tailored to the unique demands of each project in the Houston area.

Conventional Steel Erection

This versatile technique involves the meticulous on-site assembly of steel components for various production and commercial projects. Our skilled Houston team ensures every piece is cautiously positioned and securely connected to guarantee the structural integrity of the complete framework.

Bolted Steel Erection

This method utilizes high-strength bolts and nuts for connecting metal additives, offering flexibility for easier disassembly or future modifications. WeldIT combines engineering precision with speed to deliver reliable, sustainable structural solutions for modern commercial builds.

Welded Steel Erection

For initiatives demanding the highest structural integrity, we fuse metal additives through expert on-site welding. This technique offers superior energy and durability, making it the ideal choice for heavy industrial frameworks. Our AWS-certified weld crew ensures every connection is precise and incredibly strong.

HOW IT WORKS

From Concept to Creation: Our Steel Erection Procedure

Successfully executing a structural project requires following a series of critical, necessary steps. WeldIT follows a proven six-step procedure to ensure every steel structure we erect in Houston is built for maximum durability and safety.

Step 1

Foundation Preparation

First, we verify the foundation is level and engineered to support the structure's weight. Anchor bolts are then used to securely fasten the initial steel components to the base.

Step 2

Structural Steel Delivery

Before erection begins, all components undergo a rigorous inspection for flaws or damage following transport to the Houston job site.

Step 3

Assembly of Steel Components

Using precision cranes or hoists, our team assembles the primary framework on the ground before lifting sections into position to be permanently bolted or welded.

Step 4

Installation of Secondary Steel

Once the primary skeleton is secure, we install essential secondary parts, including platforms, handrails, and industrial stairs, to finalize the structural construction.

Step 5

Load Testing

Next, we conduct comprehensive load tests to ensure the structure can safely withstand the specific operational weight and environmental strain it will experience.

Step 6

Inspection and Maintenance

To conclude the build, a final safety audit is performed. We also establish a routine maintenance schedule to ensure the structure remains secure and in optimal working order for years to come.
