Engineering for Bessemer Industry

Bessemer is an industrial city in western Jefferson County, founded as an iron and steel town and still home to heavy industry and manufacturing.

Our four experienced engineers focus on practical, real‑world solutions that move projects from concept to completion with clarity and confidence.

Typical work includes design-build structures, transfer chutes, reverse-engineered replacement parts, platforms and stairs, and custom equipment. Designs are optimized for fabrication and installation because the same company builds and installs them.

For existing equipment and structures, 3D laser scanning and precision measurement let us capture accurate as-built conditions before we design a modification or replacement.

Our Engineering Capabilities

  • Four experienced in-house engineers
  • Design-build packages, concept drawings and structural steel detailing
  • Reverse engineering with 3D laser scanning and metrology-grade scanning
  • Transfer chute design and material flow analysis
  • Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and stress analysis
  • AutoCAD, Advance Steel, Tekla and Autodesk Inventor
