Owen Industries & Career RockIt!

by | Feb 24, 2020 | Company, PVS Structures

Owen Industries attended two additional schools last week for Career RockIt. Some of our employees went to Karen Western Elementary and visited with a 3rd and 4th grade class. The kids were amazed by all the steel products that Owen’s produce that is all around them. Tony Wredt, one of our Estimators, had the kids teach him how to take a selfie!

Our next stop was Alfonza W Davis Middle School. We met with a 6th and 7th grade class taking a Technology and Living class. The module they were starting was on CNC Manufacturing. The students were very interested in the different type of jobs we have, and how most do not require a college degree.

PVS Structures at the Zoo!

by | Dec 31, 2019 | PVS Structures

PVS Structures is assisting in building the new stingray complex at the Henry Doorly Zoo. The project will be completed in three phases. Though the project is only about 120 tons of steel, it is architecturally challenging as the building itself is in a curved shape and the roof above through the entire shape waves at the roof line in contrast to the building layout. We look forward to bringing you new updates on this exciting project!

PVS Structures Hosts RediCor Breakfast

by | Oct 11, 2019 | PVS Structures

PVS would like to thank our customers and partners who attended our breakfast seminar.  This year we partnered with Paul Johnson, PhD, PE, Design Build Supervisor at the Nucor Detailing Center who presennted on Vulcraft’s RediCor Modular Steel Form System, and brought a demonstration piece that our participants were able to walk through.  Time is money in the construction industry and this system can cut schedule time significantly, since RediCor allows you to erect steel as you put up the core without having to wait for the concrete. 

We look forward to hosting you for our next breakfast seminar – if you have any topics you think we should cover, please let us know!
