Fabrication

Steel fabrication is the process of transforming raw metal into usable solutions for construction and assembly by shaping and welding them to their desired forms. The fabrication of steel requires complex welding and forming techniques, as well as equipment, and leaves little room for error. It’s crucial to partner with a highly skilled steel fabrication company to achieve the best results for your next project. Our experience ranges from structural steel fabrication to heat recovery steam generator systems and everything in between, and is what makes us the right partner for the job.

You can invest in cutting-edge fabrication services from the experienced professionals at Goodhart Sons, Inc. We are a fully equipped industrial steel fabricator with over 175,000 square feet of production space and more than 8 decades of experience. See how our fabrication capabilities and knowledge can be used to meet your project needs.

Custom Heavy Plate Fabrication

Heavy plate fabrication is the process of rolling plates into cylinders using forming, bending, cutting, welding and assembling techniques.  We offer an extensive range of heavy plate fabrication services, including:

  • Custom heavy plate fabrication
  • Heavy plate bending
  • Heavy steel plate fabrication
  • Steel plate cold forming
  • Steel and alloy plate welding
  • Steel plate straightening
  • Press brake forming
  • Steel plate hot forming
  • Steel plate cutting
  • Steel plate heat treating

Structural Steel Fabrication and Erection

We offer structural and access industrial steel fabrication and erection services for companies looking to build complex structures for their industries. The structural steel erection process involves fabricating, lifting, and assembling a network of steel segments to create an intricate building frame. We also offer structural steel painting services, where we finish your structural steel beams to ensure that they remain preserved for years to come.

You can view one of our previous structural steel fabrication projects to see our services in action.
