Where Welding Shows Up on DOT & Heavy Civil Jobs
Most DOT welding calls aren’t “new fabrication” — they’re field fixes, tie-ins, and schedule-critical repairs that keep crews moving and keep inspections from turning into rework loops. Here’s what we’re commonly brought in for on highway, bridge, and heavy civil scopes:
- Structural tie-ins & connection welding: field connection welds, clip angles, embeds, plates, stiffeners, and site mods
- Bridge-related repairs & reinforcement: cracked members, retrofit plates, brackets, gussets, and corrective welding per spec
- Misc metals for infrastructure: handrails, stairs, ladders, platforms, guards, bollards, barriers, and equipment supports
- Heavy equipment & attachment repair: mounts, lugs, brackets, cracked welds, and reinforcement to reduce downtime
- Schedule saves: emergency welding, punch-list closeout, and rework correction to get you back on plan fast
