Industrial Stacks
Goodhart Sons, Inc. specializes in the fabrication of industrial stacks for a variety of applications. With extensive experience in handling projects of all sizes, we have fabricated stacks with diameters up to 26 feet, including double-wall constructions and stacks with strakes for enhanced performance. We collaborate with owners and stack designers to fabricate high-quality stacks directly from their drawings, ensuring precision and durability in every project.
The Role of Industrial Stacks
Industrial stacks are essential components in multiple industries, serving as critical exhaust structures for emissions control, ventilation, and process efficiency. Whether in power generation, manufacturing, or chemical processing, stacks play a vital role in ensuring regulatory compliance and operational safety. They must withstand extreme temperatures, corrosive environments, and high wind loads, making material selection and fabrication expertise crucial to their performance and longevity.
As part of a comprehensive system, customers often require a fabricator with the capabilities to produce heavy plate duct, dust collection components, and cyclones. Goodhart Sons is equipped with advanced machinery, including weld manipulators, a 40-foot CNC plasma cutting table, a 660-ton Baykal press brake, and sheet and plate rolls, allowing us to fabricate these additional system components, as well.
Experts in Industrial Stack Fabrication
Goodhart Sons has decades of experience in fabricating industrial stacks from a wide range of materials, including carbon steel, stainless steel, and high-alloy metals. Our team understands the strict quality standards and welding procedures required for these structures, and we employ Certified Weld Inspectors (CWIs) to ensure compliance with industry specifications. With advanced fabrication equipment such as weld manipulators, CNC plasma cutting tables, and large-scale press brakes, we deliver industrial stacks built for precision, durability, and efficiency.
Building to STS Code Standards
At Goodhart Sons, we have the knowledge and certifications required to fabricate industrial stacks in compliance with the Steel Stack Standard (STS) under ASME requirements. Adhering to STS code ensures that stacks are designed and built to withstand structural loads, thermal expansion, and environmental factors while maintaining safety and performance standards. Additionally, we follow ASME Section IX requirements for welding procedure qualifications, ensuring that all welding processes meet the highest standards for quality and integrity. Our team is well-versed in the necessary welding procedures, materials, and inspection requirements to meet or exceed STS and ASME Section IX guidelines, providing our customers with confidence in the integrity and longevity of their stacks.
