SEEING THEBIG PICTURETHROUGH YOUR PERSPECTIVETransforming ideas into reality requires more than just vision. It demands resources, technical knowledge, and a
commitment to safety, quality and durability. For more than 90 years, clients have looked to Hirschfeld to fabricate
complex, time-sensitive structural steel components for critical applications including bridges, structural, industrial and
nuclear projects throughout North America. They know we look at projects from the client’s point of view, delivering
lasting quality on time and on budget. As a result, Hirschfeld is the clear choice for projects of every size and scope.
Building history for generations
Over the years, Hirschfeld has grown into one of the largest fully integrated fabricators
of highly engineered structural steel components in North America. Headquartered in
San Angelo, Texas, we fabricate more than 100,000 tons of steel annually and serve a
wide range of end markets including transportation infrastructure, industrial development,
commercial construction and power generation. Our ten facilities give us a national
presence, an industry-leading footprint, and the ability to deliver products quickly.
As a result, our company is a leader in the expansion and redevelopment of the U.S.
transportation and energy infrastructure systems, for both government-funded and
privately-funded enterprises.
Every project fabricated by Hirschfeld is completed in strict accordance with the client’s
needs, with the highest quality and in a timely manner. Using the latest computer modeling
technology and production techniques, our Company fabricates every project to the most
exacting specifications. And we provide clients with sophisticated tools to monitor the
progress of their projects through the entire manufacturing process. Today’s HirschfeldHirschfeld has worked with most of the country’s top contractors, architects and structural
engineers. For instance, Hirschfeld has worked with 20 of the top 25 contractors listed
in ENR magazine’s most recent listing of the Top 400 Contractors. We have advanced
facilities in Texas, Alabama, North Carolina and Virginia, and a technical services office in

Becoming experts in the industries we serve
Hirschfeld is active in a number of critical business sectors, including producing
components for bridges, structural applications, industrial and nuclear facilities,
and international markets.
Each of these sectors brings its own specific demands for quality, safety and reliability.
In all of these cases, not only businesses, but lives depend on our Company’s ability to
deliver excellence. From our beginnings as a company dedicated to repairing oil field
equipment and simple steel structures to today, we’ve grown because we listened to our
customers, responded quickly to their demands, and provided fast and responsive products
and services. We’ve continually improved and updated our processes and equipment,
expanded our product offerings to meet demands, and added cross-functional systems
that have enabled us to diversify while maintaining our standards of quality.
Hirschfeld holds the highest possible certifications from the American Institute of Steel
Construction (AISC) for:
• Standard for Steel Building Structures
• Simple Steel Bridges
• Major Steel Bridges
• Fracture Critical Endorsement
• Sophisticated Paint Coating Endorsement-Enclosed (Highest Ranking of P-1 Enclosed)
AISC’s independent auditing company confirms that all our facilities have the personnel,
knowledge, organization, capacity, equipment, experience and procedures to produce
work that meets their stringent standards. Our long history of innovation and extensive
experience gives us another advantage as well.

Bridges are both the literal and figurative links that allow people, goods and
communities to come together. Building bridges requires adhering to the
highest standards of safety and quality, because without them, our lives
come to a standstill. Yet for all their sturdy practicality, bridges can be
beautiful, too. Fabricating components that are strong yet light, durable yet
appealing, presents a special set of challenges. One that the designers,
engineers and craftsmen of Hirschfeld are able to meet time and time again.

Today’s energy needs and global warming are creating both challenges and
opportunities. At Hirschfeld, we see this as a tremendous privilege to help
create new sources of energy to power American industries. How? By
building state-of-the-art wind towers and related components which are
not only good for our environment, but good for everyone. And that’s good
business, and smart thinking and responsible corporate citizenship. Just
what our customers and business partners have come to expect from us.
Wind
Generating the power of collaboration
Entering the wind energy market requires the right timing and the right partner. And that’s
exactly why Hirschfeld Industries has joined forces with Martifer Energy Systems to create
Martifer-Hirschfeld Energy Systems LLC, a company to serve the wind power sector.
Martifer-Hirschfeld Energy Systems combines Hirschfeld’s expertise in infrastructure
manufacturing and Martifer Group’s expertise in producing towers, coverings and gearboxes
for wind turbines, all at a time when the demand for wind-driven energy is growing. In the
beginning, the companies joined forces in 2009 to develop a factory in San Angelo, Texas.
This 40-million-dollar, state-of-the-art facility has the capacity to produce 400 towers a
year by the year 2013.
Our partner, Martifer Energy Systems, is based in Oliveira de Frades, Portugal, and is part
of the Martifer Group, which is active in metallic construction, energy systems, electricity
generation, wind farm construction and biofuels in more than 20 countries worldwide. They
have been active in the North American market since 2007.
WE RECOGNIZE RENEWABLE ENERGY MAKES A STRONG IMPACT IN THE
QUALITY OF LIVES AROUND US, AND WE ARE DEDICATED TO HELPING
SUSTAIN THAT QUALITY THROUGH CONTINUED INNOVATION AND DESIGN.

HIRSCHFELD’S INTENT IS TO INCREASE OUR GLOBAL PRESENCE IN
THESE MARKET SECTORS:
• POWER
• OIL AND GAS
• MINING AND METALS
Going the extra mileHirschfeld’s Transportation division provides captive transportation services, representing a
significant benefit for our customers. Due to the difficulties inherent in transporting large
steel structures, third-party transportation providers struggle to deliver fabricated components
without damage or delay. Because of the size and weight of Hirschfeld’s fabricated steel
products, the transportation division has substantial expertise in hauling heavy, oversized loads.
This highly specialized fleet of trucks, combined with our national network of fabrication plants
and experience in delivering components to the international market, means you can rely on
us to deliver in a timely manner, time and time again.
Bringing precisionand details togetherConverting engineering drawings into shop drawings for fabrication operations or third-party
construction requires exceptional precision and painstaking attention to detail. Consteel
Technical Services, acquired by Hirschfeld in 1998, performs these services for our clients in
the U.K. and continental Europe. Since it was founded in 1976, the firm has developed a
proven track record of success detailing designs for stadiums, commercial buildings, high-rise
office buildings, hotels, and convention centers, as well as industrial and manufacturing plants.
To ensure the highest levels of precision, Consteel’s detailing team is made up of fully
qualified draftsmen with a wealth of experience in structural design, detailing and steelwork
fabrication. Using the latest software programs, including TEKLA Structures, AutoCAD and
our own in-house proprietary software, they create precision drawings that meet or exceed
national and international industry standards. The result? Steel components that are picture-
perfect for every application.
Building strong relationships
Hirschfeld works to build strong, ongoing relationships with all of our stakeholders,
including our customers, employees and their families, shareholders, alliance partners,
vendors and the communities in which we work and live.
Our employees use the most advanced technology and fabrication techniques to
manufacture products that meet or exceed customer expectations and deliver these
products in a timely manner. Moving ahead, we hope to strengthen and build on our existing
relationships, and to enter into new business ventures with companies around the world.
We are excited by emerging possibilities, and eager to prove ourselves with new challenges.
We will continue to work side-by-side with our clients from conception to fabrication
and installation in order to ensure the success of every project. At Hirschfeld, we believe
our relationships should be as enduring as the steel components we fabricate.
