25 tons

Components

Beams, Stringer Channels, Grating, Stair Treads & Handrails

BridgePort I is intended as a high-capacity storage and distribution center situated on a large 60-acre site, BridgePort I is strategically located within proximity to I-95 and the Outerbridge Crossing to Staten Island, NY. On the banks of the Arthur Kill, the project is situated on a former Act 2 site and involved heavy site cleanup and ground improvements.  Inclusive of one standalone building, the project will boast over 243,600 square feet of usable space.

The rooftop access staircase is constructed from 25 tons of hot dip galvanized steel beam columns, staircases and handrails and assemble at V&S Amboy Galvanizing. The location of V&S Amboy Galvanizing being so close to the jobsite made it possible to send large sections directly to the jobsite for a seamless installation for the General Contractor Alloy Welding.

“Our ongoing partnership with the city resulted in a seamless approvals process, and we look forward to working alongside Mayor Caba and the City to bolster the local economy, showcase the region’s talented workforce, and create new job opportunities”

Protecting America's Infrastructure One Dip at a Time

Bus rapid transit station featuring hot-dip galvanized and painted tube steel construction along East Washington Avenue

Madison Bus BRT Shelter

Madison's bus rapid transit system Phase 1 features 45 stations with hot-dip galvanized and painted tube steel construction, requiring close fabricator-galvanizer coordination for proper vent and drain placement on architecturally exposed structural steel elements. The duplex coating system delivers both required corrosion protection and desired aesthetic color for the transit infrastructure.

APA Hawaii Solar

The Ewa Beach Solar project in Kupono, Hawaii utilized 280 tons of hot-dip galvanized ground screws to support 120,000 solar panels, creating Oahu's largest renewable energy facility with four-hour battery storage capacity. Hot-dip galvanizing was selected for superior corrosion protection in the ocean-proximity environment, ensuring long-term durability for this major grid infrastructure project.

OSU Wexner Medical Center Inpatient Hospital

OSU Wexner Medical Center's $1.9 billion inpatient hospital tower utilized hot-dip galvanized steel for mechanical floors 7-10, including HVAC louvre support and curtain wall systems housing equipment at the top of Ohio State University's largest capital project in history.

One Times Square

Hot-dip galvanizing enabled rapid construction for One Times Square's $500 million transformation, with 220 tons of steel processed in just two days to create the maintenance-free skeleton façade supporting the iconic ball drop building's new museum and viewing deck. This "set it and forget it" approach eliminated costly paint system maintenance while facilitating the historic landmark's evolution into a 12-floor visitor destination.
