Design-Built Structural Solution

CAST CONNEX offers design-build services for custom-cast steel nodes and components. We leverage steel casting manufacturing to offer our clients unparalleled opportunities for optimization and beauty in structural form.

Elevated design for projects of any budget

CAST CONNEX standardized connectors are available in a range of sizes to fit standard member profiles. These pre-engineered products are affordable enough to be used repetitively or as a one-off. Each connector is designed to simplify fabrication labor, especially in architecturally exposed applications.

Part of a multi-phase renovation project, the new venue boasts video walls, upgraded restrooms, food and beverage service sites, and scenic views.

The large, contemporary canopy that shields the stage and fixed seating is supported by long, tapered columns fitted with CAST CONNEX® Universal Pin Connectors™ (UPCs) at both ends of each member.

Universal Pin Connectors™ are sleek, clevis-type standardized fittings designed to connect to hollow structural section (HSS) elements for use in architecturally exposed structural steel (AESS) applications and provide smooth transitional geometry that is otherwise unachievable using standard fabrication practices. CAST CONNEX® Custom Steel Castings are used to couple the HSS members while providing a smooth “V” shaped reveal at the base.
