It’s not the Welding it’s the Grind

Welding repair can apply to anything from gigantic excavation bucket that has a broken tooth, structural steel I beams and forms, to a common vehicle rim that has been cracked or damaged.

With all of these repairs there are many different processes used to accomplish the weld. A few of these are GMAW (Gas, Metal Arc Welding), Arc, MIG (Metal, Inert Gas) or  TIG (Tungsten Inert Gas).

Repair welding is not just the process of welding but also includes grinding. A skill that sometimes goes unnoticed but a necessary evil in most welding repair.

The Welding Shop Calgary team is expert in welding repair.

The Great Welding Extension

How to extend your flatbed truck.

A flatbed truck has a platform bed that is entirely flat and level with no sides or roof. This configuration serves quick loading and unloading of varying sized payloads without having to worry about the item being able to fit into a confined or closed body vehicle.

Extending the deck on one of these trucks could be for a number of reasons. Usually to expand payload but any number of scenarios can be accomplished and The Welding Shop Calgary has built hundreds of different configurations depending on the clients needs.

These deck changes can add years of working life to your flatbed truck and save thousands of dollars of the purchase of a new truck.

What is a Staging Platform

A staging platform is a temporary structure used to support a work crew and materials to aid in the construction, maintenance and repair of all other man-made structures. Staging platforms are also used to gain secure height access for repair work or to hold large industrial equipment such as generators or large air conditioning units.

Staging platforms can be temporary or permanent structures and can include heavy duty load bearing transoms, ladders or stairways for the ingress and egress of the platform.

The Welding Shop Calgary has produced many platforms for everything from drilling platforms for the oil industry to smaller urban platforms that accommodate backyard pool equipment.
