Thornton Steel offers connection design for all projects. Connection design is one of the most important aspects of working with structural steel. When starting a new project, our project managers, detailers, and erectors work closely with our connection design engineers to ensure the most efficient and safest design of connections throughout detailing, fabrication, and erection.

By closely coordinating our team—connection engineers, project managers, detailers, and erectors—with the project engineers, we develop the safest and most productive connection designs, accelerating schedules while maintaining the highest standards of safety and quality.

Effective connection design is critical to value engineering. Bringing our team onboard early in the design phase of a project helps reduce expense by offering consulting on the most cost-effective solutions while maximizing fabrication and erection productivity.
