Structural steel in Somerville, Massachusetts

Triple-deckers, condo conversions and Union/Assembly Square development.

Platinum Structural Steel provides structural steel installation in Somerville, Massachusetts. Somerville is the densest city in New England and it is built almost entirely out of triple-deckers, most of which are being converted to condos one at a time.

Platinum Structural Steel provides structural steel installation in Somerville, Massachusetts. That produces a very specific steel market: basement girders, lally columns, first-floor beams for open plans, and new stair and deck framing, all on lots with three feet between buildings.

Platinum Structural Steel plans Somerville permitting and access.

Platinum Structural Steel provides structural steel installation in Somerville, Massachusetts. Somerville Inspectional Services requires a permit and stamped structural drawings for load path changes. The practical constraint in Somerville is not the permit, it is the street: crane setups, material delivery and even a boom truck usually require a street occupancy permit and neighbor coordination, and many blocks simply cannot host a crane. We plan most Somerville residential work as hand-rigged or sectioned steel for that reason.

Original girders that have taken a permanent set, on lally columns sitting on the slab with no footing. Replacing both together is the standard scope here.
