Fab Facilities Provide Multiple Benefits

DSI aims to maximize off-site fabrication, and we look for every opportunity to move manhours from the field to one of our regional fabrication facilities. The reason? Off-site fabrication ensures:

• More cost-effective resources
• Safer, controlled work environment
• Reduced on-site labor
• Reduced waste on-site/improved site cleanliness – LEED credits
• Better material and equipment control to prevent losses
• Minimized lay-down requirements – just-in-time deliveries
• Higher labor productivity
• Improved quality control
• Schedule control

High quality, fully-coordinated 3D virtual designs are produced for every project. Pipe spool fabrication drawings and sheet metal duct/fitting cut tickets are digitally generated by our 3D virtual design software for fabricating the following project components:

• HVAC pipe spools and assemblies
• HVAC rectangular and spiral sheet metal duct
• Sanitary plumbing pipe and assemblies
• High purity and industrial grade process pipe and assemblies
• Pipe and duct structural supports
• MEP and process skids and modules

Over the years, we have invested, developed and expanded our fabrication operations, and currently have more than 220,000 square feet of piping, plumbing, clean room and sheet metal fabrication facilities. These facilities are strategically located throughout the U.S. to support our operations.
