Steel Embed Fabrication

A heavy-duty embed plate is the best way to attach steel to concrete. It consists of a steel plate welded to lugs and then cast in a concrete bed. Finishes add durability to the steel and help it resist damage from water and humidity. This ensures reliable long-term construction in demanding applications, such as infrastructure and architecture. Bridges and other large structures require the highest quality materials, coatings, and fabrication techniques.

We can fabricate an embed steel plate in-house to your project’s specifications with speed and accuracy. Inaccurate dimensions or inadequate materials in embed plates can cause major construction delays, so it’s important to work with a shop that has experience with large-scale fabrication. Get exactly what you need for a strong foundation with ASM’s embed plate fabrication services.

Materials

A quality embed plate begins with superior metal. ASM’s embed steel plate fabrication is available in the following materials and grades:

• Galvanized steel
• Cold-rolled steel
• 300-series stainless steel
• 400-series stainless steel

Galvanized steel, cold-rolled steel and stainless steel all provide extra protection from the elements in steel embeds. Spring steel is durable and elastic, with excellent yield strength. We also work with specialty metals. Keep your project’s foundation strong by choosing the best materials for your custom embed plates.

Finishes

Metal finishes provide additional dependability and custom properties. ASM offers the following finishes:

• Powder coating
• Galvanized
• Pre-finished
• Chrome plated
• Electroplated
• Hot-dipped galvanized

Steel can resist damage from environmental conditions with galvanized, plated, or powder coatings. Projects in the infrastructure and architectural industries require durable steel. Even indoors, humidity and general wear and tear can damage metal structures.

Surface treatments keep steel from cracking and staining over time. When freshly galvanized steel is embedded in concrete, salts form that protect the coating. Hot-dipped galvanized coatings provide a thicker layer of protection.
