The founders of B&T (who are still actively involved) come from a background of working with steel fabricators and erectors.  This, combined with the company’s design expertise, gives us an understanding of the erection process from both viewpoints - the designer and the contractor. 

Erection experience

Our successful participation in various aspects of several major structures has given this firm the depth in personnel and design and analysis tools to ensure the successful completion of the projects we pursue. Our record and credibility are valuable assets to the contractor in dealing with owners and designers.
