Structural Repair Spotlight – Full Column Replacement Project

This project involved a complete column replacement inside an existing metal building, a challenging job with unique engineering requrements.

An overhead crane had been retroactively attached to the building’s rigid frame without proper engineering review. Over time, repeated heavy lifts caused structural failure at weak points in the framing.

Our team stepped in to assess the damage and worked with engineering to design a full replacement capable of safely handling the increased loads.

The customer, an offshore oil and gas support company specializing in fabrication of high-pressure fire suppression skids, requested to perform the column welding themselves. We collaborated closely, providing:

✅ Detailed repair and engineering plans
✅ Cut and prepped steel
✅ Shoring and temporary supports
✅ Removal of the damaged column
✅ Installation of the new column

This project required precise coordination between multiple teams, careful planning, and strong communication to ensure an incident-free, on-schedule completion.

Teamwork and adaptability made this one a success!
