Precision Engineering for Load-Bearing Needs

Plan Structural Steel Fabrication in Arlington

Every building project relies on steel that can support the loads it's designed to carry, and you can't afford guesswork when it comes to beams, columns, and headers. When you partner with Shen Co Metal Works, you're working with fabricators who double-check every measurement and weld to ensure your Arlington structure meets engineering specifications. You'll feel the solid heft of a perfectly cut I-beam and hear the steady rhythm of our saws and grinders preparing materials in our climate-controlled shop.

Our structural steel fabrication Arlington TX services include beams, columns, headers, and supports for construction. We handle shop fabrication with precise measurements and welds, offer installation services for residential and commercial builds, and use heavy-duty materials engineered for durability. We work closely with contractors, builders, and architects to ensure every piece arrives ready to install and meets project timelines.

Schedule your steel fabrication Arlington TX project consultation to review plans and confirm material specifications.

What's Included in Our Structural Steel Fabrication?

Every project begins with detailed plans and specifications. Beams, columns, headers, and supports are designed to carry the calculated loads, meet building codes, and integrate seamlessly with the overall structure. Steel is selected based on grade, thickness, and application, then cut to exact dimensions using precision equipment that ensures square edges and accurate lengths.

Welding is performed in a controlled shop environment where conditions are optimal for strong, consistent joints. Each weld is visually inspected, and critical connections are tested to confirm they meet engineering standards. Shen Co Metal Works coordinates with contractors, builders, and architects throughout the fabrication process, making adjustments as needed and providing updates so everyone stays informed.

When fabrication is complete, components are delivered to your site and, if installation services are requested, erected by crews experienced in structural steel placement. The result is a frame that's plumb, level, and ready to support the next phase of construction.

Key Benefits of This Service

Structural steel provides strength, flexibility, and speed compared to other building materials. Our fabrication process ensures components fit together seamlessly on-site, reducing labor costs and construction delays.

What types of steel do you fabricate?
We work with wide-flange beams, channels, angles, and hollow structural sections in various grades. Material selection depends on load calculations and environmental factors outlined in your engineering plans.
Do you provide installation as well as fabrication?
Yes, our crew can deliver and install structural steel using cranes and rigging equipment. We coordinate with general contractors to ensure safe and timely placement.
How do you ensure accuracy in fabrication?
We use CNC plasma cutting and laser measuring tools to achieve tolerances within one-sixteenth of an inch. Each piece is test-fitted before leaving our shop.
Can you work from architectural drawings?
We regularly collaborate with architects and engineers, interpreting their drawings and offering fabrication insights that improve buildability. Any questions about dimensions or connections are resolved before cutting begins.
What is the typical lead time for fabrication?
Most projects require two to four weeks from approval of drawings to delivery, depending on material availability and shop workload. Rush orders can be accommodated for time-sensitive builds in Arlington.

Whether you're framing a new commercial building or adding structural support to an existing facility, the quality of your steel fabrication determines long-term stability and safety. Our welds meet AWS D1.1 standards, and every beam is marked for easy identification during installation.
