Heavy Civil Construction

The construction world is changing as the demands of major facility and bridge erection force the contractor and owners to shorter and more demanding schedules. Modular construction methods are calling on companies like Barnhart to develop the capabilities to move, lift and erect major structures such as roof trusses, bridge segments and in some cases complete plants. While these methods of erection have been utilized around the world for some time, the US is in the beginning stages of this type of construction technique.

We offer many of these services through existing and emerging technologies.
