Pro software, non- destructive testing, structural repair design, welding (per AWS D1.5M/D1.5), corrosion repair, abrasive blasting, lead-based paint removal over and on water, wire rope replacement, cathodic protection removal and installation, and design and replacement of hoist controls and switches and replacement of existing crane with rehab work on the crane rail system.
