Celebrating 40 Years of Exceptional Engineering Excellence!
For four decades, Mark Holland has been an invaluable asset to our company, consistently displaying an unwavering commitment to innovation, expertise, and steadfast dedication. Throughout his illustrious career, Mark has played a pivotal role in shaping the very foundation of our organization, guiding us through technological advancements and pushing the boundaries of engineering excellence.
Mark’s passion for the craft, relentless pursuit of perfection, and unyielding work ethic have inspired and positively influenced countless colleagues, resulting in a stronger and more prosperous organization as a whole. This can be proven by his 2:00 am emails.
Mark has been instrumental in leading some of our most groundbreaking projects, turning complex challenges into triumphs. His depth of knowledge, unparalleled expertise, and visionary thinking have not only elevated our company’s reputation but also significantly contributed to advancements in the field of engineering itself. This ultimately culminated in Mark receiving the AISC lifetime achievement award earlier this year, one of AISC’s highest honors.
Beyond his professional accomplishments, Mark has selflessly shared his knowledge and experience, shaping the careers of numerous individuals within our organization (including both the current president and general manager). His willingness to guide and nurture talent exemplifies their commitment to fostering a culture of growth, learning, and collaboration.

On behalf of the entire organization, we extend our warmest congratulations and our sincere thanks to Mark Holland. We look forward to many more years of collaboration and continued success as we embark on new frontiers together.
This is one of over 100 precision-manufactured cast steel nodes that CAST CONNEX is engineering and manufacturing for Paxton & Vierling Steel Co. for use in the construction of NASA’s Mobile Launcher 2, which is being designed, constructed, and commissioned by Bechtel Corporation in support of the NASA – National Aeronautics and Space Administration #Artemis Mission.
Cast steel nodes provide significantly enhanced structural performance, reliability, and robustness compared to conventionally fabricated connections. Our components are also dramatically simplifying fabrication and construction of the rocket launch tower, while also reducing weight – an important consideration for a mobile structure.
I had a great week meeting with some of PVS’s outstanding project partners. What a privilege it is to be involved in this project with this team.
