What We Build in This Market
What We Build for Civil Infrastructure and Water Control
Large welded structures and assemblies built to customer drawings for infrastructure and water-control projects, where geometry has to hold from the shop floor to the site.
Large Welded Structures
Structures and frames built to customer drawings, sized and sequenced for the geometry the project requires.
Project-Specific Fixturing
Fixturing and handling developed for the part rather than adapted from stock tooling, so location repeats across a run.
Controlled Welding & Geometry
Deliberate weld sequencing and in-process geometry checks on long structures, where distortion accumulates across dozens of joints.
CEF is supporting a hydroelectric project in Indiana with large welded structures and expanded robotic-welding capability. Additional application details and project photography are being documented.

Recent Work
Civil Infrastructure Jobs We’ve Completed
Real fabrication work from our shop floor in this market.
Built for These Jobs
Scale and Process Control for Infrastructure Work
Capacity & Equipment
Parts and structures to 20,000 lb, lengths to 60 feet, certified welders across all major processes, and on-site CNC machining for mounting faces and critical tolerances.
Finishing & Full Assembly
Full assembly completed in-house. We offer sandblasting, painting, powder coating, plating, and galvanizing, so equipment leaves ready for the field.
Why CEF
Built for Structures That Have to Hold Their Shape
Medium to large parts and mechanical assemblies where cutting, forming, welding, machining, and finishing all have to come together on one program.
- ISO 9001:2015 certified — quality system documented through every operation
- Laser, plasma, oxy-fuel flame, shearing, production sawing, miter sawing, and cold sawing in-house
- Press brake forming, bending, bump forming, and plate rolling on-site
- Certified welders across a full range of metals including aluminum, high-alloy steel, and nickel-based alloys
- On-site CNC machining for precision bores, drilled surfaces, and critical tolerances
- Full assembly in-house, with finishing services including sandblasting, painting, powder coating, plating, and galvanizing
- Fabrication capabilities and inspection services built to meet the requirements of demanding programs
- In business since 1990 — Milwaukee, WI
