Curved Tube Steel and Angle for the Digestive Health Institute in Great Falls, Montana
We were recently involved with some bending for the Digestive Health Institute of Montana, the largest gastrointestinal (GI) medical group in Montana. Approximately 30,000 pounds of bent steel was shipped to Great Falls, MT for fabrication. This project was unique due to the wide range of materials needing to be rolled. We bent the following materials: Tube Steel 12" X 4" X .250" WALL A500 GR B Tube Steel 12" X 2" X .250" WALL A500 GR B Tube Steel 3" X 1½" X .120" WALL A513 Tube Steel 3" X 1" X .120" WALL A513 6" X 3½" X 5/16" ANGLE A36 5" X 3" X ¼" ANGLE A36 4" X 4" X 3/8" ANGLE A36 3" X 3" X ¼" ANGLE A36 7" X 4" X 3/8" ANGLE A36

Grant Campus in Brentwood, Long Island, New York. Albina Co., Inc. bent the steel spiral stringers for the project. The steel spiral stringers consisted of spiral bent tube steel 20" X 4" X .500" WALL A500 GR B the easy way to a 14 ft. plan view radius. We also bent the landings to a similar radius. We also spiral bent tube steel 14" X 10" X .500" WALL A500 GR B the easy way to a 19 ft. plan view radius and the landings also to a similar radius.

Meet Brian and Jaime Smith-March Madness...Size Doesn't Matter, Big or Small!
We are basketball junkies in our family and we love watching March Madness! We love it because all scenarios are represented: big history-rich dominating schools vs. small underdog first timers, big boisterous coaches vs. the silent tactical types, and big 7-footers vs. small point guards. This last scenario is true in our family as I stand at 6'6" and Jaime almost a foot shorter. You can see below why Jaime, who actually played D1 college basketball, implemented a "no shot blocking rule" when we first started dating!! Meet Brian and Jaime Smith We think that this big vs. small comparison carries over so well into our business because we have the capability to bend steel for many different scenarios as well: big high-profile structural steel projects vs. small precision parts for manufacturing and industrial applications, large projects with mass quantities of bends vs. small one-piece bends for a one-time job and we are also a small, family owned business, yet we are the premier bending expert in the entire nation. No matter the job, big or small, we would love the opportunity to be Your Bending Expert.
