The difference begins at the design phase.  Our design team includes four in-house engineers among several other well-qualified and highly-experienced design experts.  Our senior engineer, who has a doctorate in civil engineering and is certified in over sixty states and provinces in North America, carries out a final review of the design for every project.  Our design methodologies have been reviewed and approved by numerous independent engineers and building officials and are backed by physical testing that has been carried out by independent laboratories at major universities and the largest steel supplier in the world. 

Over the years, we have revolutionized the industry by introducing the world to the A-Model, weld-free base plates, arch-type carports, among many other developments.  We have also designed countless custom applications for the arch system including modified arch shapes and dimensions and various trussless roofing applications.  Our investment in engineering, which has totaled in the millions of dollars over the years, is what sets us apart from the competition in ingenuity and quality of design and allows us to tackle projects that would otherwise be untenable.
