Custom Structural Equipment & Access Platforms

EQUIPMENT & ACCESS PLATFORMS, PROCESS EQUIPMENT SUPPORT (PIPE RACK), & TOWERS

Equipment & Access Platforms are similar but serve two distinct purposes. Equipment platforms or process equipment support (pipe racks) are designed to support a specific piece or pieces of equipment. Access platforms are designed to access controls and/or maintenance areas of the equipment. Additional structures such as training, antenna, and equipment towers, also fall under this category. Process equipment supports are used to support piping, conveyor, HVAC, and electrical.

PRE-FABRICATED NUT & BOLT COMPONENTS, CUSTOM DESIGNED FOR YOUR SPECIFIC APPLICATION

Whether your application is complex or straightforward, your requirement will be manufactured using structural steel components with nut-and-bolt construction to your exact specification. We use state-of-the-art software to collaborate with you during the design phase. We incorporate your equipment models into our software to ensure proper fit and clearances. We provide the option to have your platform partially pre-assembled before shipping to minimize field installation time.
