The Early Construction Corporation works under the U.A. National Pipe Fabrication agreement, a charter member of the Pipe Fabrication Institute.  The Early Construction Corporation holds the following stamps for work: “U”, “R”, “S”, and PP”.  In addition, the facility has the ability to perform associated work that includes nondestructive examination, hydrostatic testing, and painting. Please feel free to request additional information about our fabrication facilities.  We would be more than happy to arrange a site tour of our facilities with our expert pipe fabrication team.

Some of our projects involve “real-time” fabrication, in which the customer requires pipe fabrication to be developed on a daily and weekly basis in response to existing changes on the projects. We have the ability to coordinate the changes between their site teams and the fabrication shop, thereby eliminating any requirements for additional deliveries, on-site labor costs for downtime, or project delays.  Operators and procedures are qualified and maintained in strict accordance with ASME Sect. IX and AWS D1.1.  In house testing capabilities include all sandblasting and painting, ceramic lining and localized PWHT. Hydrostatic test pressure up to 9,000 PSI is available, and radiography is subcontracted to a qualified level III consultant located within a 5-10 minute drive of our shop. We have a fleet of approximately 30 vehicles available for full in house delivery capabilities readily available for deliveries anytime on any day of the week.
