Modular Pipe Bridges

Bullard Company is adept at packaging process pipe into modular units for groups of above ground pipelines, pipe bridges, pipe trusses and pipe racks. In just the past 2 years, we have logged over 100,000 labor hours in welding and assembling of these packaged pipe systems.
There are many reasons as to why these modular systems are so popular:

Lower Cost

 

  • Modular designs compatible with shop production reduce field labor. Less field labor requirements reduce the risk jobsite labor shortages and labor cost escalation.
  • System designs based upon thoughtful comparison of constructability issues against cost constraints. For example: comparison of foundation requirements against truss size to achieve the most economical cost.
  • Most or all pipe fitting done in shop environment lowers overall cost.
  • Faster shop weld times versus field welding means lower cost per weld.
  • Coatings, heat trace and instrumentation when performed in a shop environment lowers cost
  • Minimizes risk that project will not be completed on time.

Smallest Possible Construction Footprint

  • Fewer on-site welders
    • More control over site labor
    • Less chance of on-site accidents
    • Down to zero site welding by using flange connections
  • Faster Installation regardless if we install or owner installs
  • Less impact on production

Highest Quality (Shop Controlled)Weld quality is typically superior in a shop environment than in a field environment

  • Shop quality control including inspection process is superior to field environment.
  • Minimum exposure of construction process to weather.

Our modular pipe systems are a perfect fit in today's market for above-ground multiple pipelines in racks, trusses or bridges. We have the expertise in all the areas required to provide a turnkey solution - from design and fabrication to installation. Our modular pipe racks and bridges are better built, cost less and install more quickly. The advantages of our modular systems make traditional construction methods obsolete.
