A Modular Pipe Rack Lowers Your Cost
A modular approach reduces costs in several ways:
- Modular designs that are compatible with shop production lower field labor needs, reducing the risk of labor shortages and labor cost escalation.
- Thoughtful system designs consider constructability issues alongside cost constraints, such as comparing foundation requirements against truss size to achieve the most economical design.
- Most pipe fitting is completed in a controlled shop environment, lowering overall costs.
- Faster shop weld times, compared to field welding, reduce the cost per weld.
- Performing coatings, heat tracing, insulation, and instrumentation in a shop environment also lowers costs.
- The modular approach minimizes the risk of delayed project completion.
A Modular Pipe Rack Improves Quality and Streamlines Installation
A modular approach reduces your construction footprint:
- Fewer on-site welders, iron workers, and laborers
- More control over site labor
- Fewer chances of on-site accidents
- Minimal or no site welding due to flanged connections
- Faster installation, whether we install, or the owner does
- Less impact on production
Weld quality is typically superior in a shop environment than in a field environment. Additionally, shop quality control, including the inspection process, is superior to that of field environments, and minimal exposure to weather helps ensure the best quality.
Modular Loading Rack Piping in Our Shop
Our modular pipe systems perfectly fit today’s market for above-ground pipeline racks, trusses, or bridges. We offer turnkey solutions, from design and fabrication to installation. Our modular pipe racks and bridges are built to a higher standard, cost less, and install more quickly than traditional methods.
The advantages of our modular systems make traditional construction methods obsolete.
Loading Rack Module Ready to Ship
Loading racks are an excellent opportunity to apply our modular pipe system capabilities. While the structural steel portion is typically built in modules, we can also design systems that include all pipe pre-installed and ready for tie-in. We can even offer insulation and heat tracing pre-installed. The benefits of building loading racks in modular units with pre-installed pipe include:
- Lower cost
- Better quality
- Faster and safer installation
