Structural Steel Fabrication and Design in North Texas

Posted on January 5th, 2017 by RWM Admin

The majority of our production is fabricated structural and miscellaneous steel. We specialize in projects of complex design and those having architecturally exposed shapes.

In order to specialize in these complex designs, we utilize in-house detailers that are trained in the latest technologies, software, and codes. Our detailers utilize SDS/2 and AutoCAD to achieve the most accurate, and up to date drawings.

We maintain partnerships with a small group of subcontract steel erectors which utilize the latest safety procedures and equipment; while maintaining the highest of quality workmanship. We coordinate closely with our steel erectors to develop a successful flow of steel and erection for an efficient, safe, and productive jobsite.

We have a highly-trained workforce to fabricate structural steel in our facilities complying with AISC, local, State and federal agencies prior to delivery to the project site. Our fabrication abilities are serviced by the following equipment:
