Working closely with engineers and architects, we help our customers surpass the expectations of their clients.
Services offered
Working closely with engineers and architects, we help our customers surpass the expectations of their clients.
Steel Construction
(Turn-key / Full Service) Using our proven process of managing the steel construction portion on both large and small projects, we can take your project from the budgeting stage through the installation of the steel package. Being a trade partner, you can rely on us providing accurate steel products and paying careful attention to avoid the issues that may become costly to schedules and budgets.
Fabrication Only
(Structural Steel Fabrication) Our reputation precedes us. As such, in addition to fabrication on our full-service projects, we also offer Fabrication Only Services to our customers and other steel fabricators alike. Trusting the quality and dependability we continually provide on our products, many other steel fabricators (both larger and smaller than us) have grown to rely on Division 5 as a trusted source for their fabrication needs.
Erection / Installation of Structural Steel
Understanding that the end products are what our customers will ultimately have their name on and/or use, we will diligently work with the General Contractor or Construction Manager to ensure that the steel products we provide are installed per plans and specifications. By using a very select group of qualified steel erectors, we can ensure that the quality you expect from us as your steel fabricator will be achieved in the field. As a team, we can adjust quickly for issues that may arise due to unexpected changes in the field conditions, and we strive to minimize downtime, maintain schedules, and assist in correcting those field conditions in a professional manner.
Conceptual Estimating / Budgets for Steel Packages
Our experience in the industry and various types of construction projects gives us the knowledge required to offer our customers conceptual estimating and/or budgetary pricing for steel packages based on narratives or "napkin" sketches. By doing this, our customers can have confidence that the budget we give will cover them for a complete structural steel package. These services also help to establish the relationship and familiarity with our customer's project, so when they do have a full design, we can get a jump on the project's construction while we are finalizing our estimate. This can help reduce the upfront downtime involved with a contractor tying to bid-out the structural steel package. Oftentimes, this can accelerate the construction schedule by 2-3 months.
Construction Industries Served
In addition to our traditional customers, we are also a trusted partner to many larger steel fabricators. We maintain a high-quality of standards and have been proven to meet and exceed the expectations of those in our trade.
Featured Project
Gainesville Raceway
About the project
This 84 ton, 8,000 square foot, 3-story new construction project utilized 70ʹ rolled, wide flange, steel beams at the roof, and additional steel framing to support a sloped glass curtain wall. Other features included galvanized steel planking and multiline galvanized handrails for the stairs and landings, as well as steel supported stadium-style seating.
Where we came in
This unique and iconic building offered quite a challenge to meet the tight schedule of completion while maintaining job site conditions to remain operational during construction. In addition, it required us to coordinate much of the supporting steel framing with multiple trades.
Featured Project
Collegetown Phase 2
About the project
Completed in 2016, this 150,00 square foot, 7-story steel-framed project utilized 420 tons of structural steel framing, bar joists, metal decking, and miscellaneous steel to create a mixed-use of retail and residential space for students and visitors.
Where we came in
This project required substantial coordination and tight schedules to accelerate the owner's project completion date while working around a busy college campus's activities and holiday schedules. Despite this and several other obstacles, Division 5 Steel, Inc. was able to bring it's phase of the overall project to completion three weeks early.
Featured Project
Collegetown Phase 3
About the project
On this project, Division 5 Steel provided 450 tons of structural steel, bar joists, metal decking, stairs, and railings to construction another 7-story, 183,000 square foot mixed-use of retail and residential space for students and visitors of Tallahassee Florida's College Town area.
Where we came in
As the sister project to College Town Phase 2, this project also required the preplanning and coordination of accelerated schedules for the project, along with the additional obstacle of coordinating around the simultaneous construction of a precast concrete parking structure on the same site. Working with tight job site access and around a major college with multiple campus activities and holiday schedules, shows that Division 5 Steel, Inc. is able to repeatedly perform for our customers.
