V&S Schuler Engineering — Burton, Ohio

Tubular Steel Fabrication

Designed specifically to fabricate tapered tubular products, V&S Schuler Engineering’s state-of-the-art facility in Burton, Ohio, is now 68,500-square feet after recent expansion.

We produce embedded structures and base-plated structures using galvanized steel or weathered steel at this facility. Our products include A-frames, H-frames, bus support, switch structures, wood pole equivalents and masts. 

With two bays that are 55’ wide by 550’ long, and seven overhead cranes – several of which can carry up to 30 tons when synchronized – this facility is equipped to handle projects of any size. 

We hold AISC certification, and a Professional Engineer (PE) oversees an experienced technical engineering staff at the facility.

After all pieces for a structure are manufactured, they go to our fitting and welding stations.

All fitters and welders must pass a rigorous skills evaluation conducted by an independent third-party firm, ensuring they’re certified and meet our high standards.

We also have Certified Welding Inspectors on staff.

There are multiple quality checks throughout the fabrication process, and we perform a final quality check once your product is finished. We also prepare it for the protective coating of your choice.

Our shipping department will work with you to make sure your delivery is received in the manner you specify, and we take pride in providing excellent ongoing customer service after delivery.

Modified Erecticon

Modified Erecticon

Modified Erecticon is a system of standardized welded members with related fittings that act as building blocks for substations. All bolt holes are punched on 3″ centers allowing for an exact fit as well as interchangeability. This system also allows for easy expansion later, eliminating the need to cut off existing plates, drill new holes or weld additional members.
