Industrial Concrete Construction: Foundations and Structural

IAC and Adelphi Construction self-perform industrial concrete construction for heavy industrial facilities across North America. From deep equipment foundations to complex structural concrete packages, our teams deliver engineered solutions that support critical process systems, high-load structures, and fast-track plant builds.

As part of our vertically integrated EPC services, we coordinate civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical scopes under one project team—reducing risk, compressing schedules, and improving quality control.

Safety is our #1 priority. Every foundation and structural concrete project is executed with strict adherence to OSHA standards, engineered drawings, and site-specific safety plans.

Design-Build Concrete for Complex Industrial Projects

Our design-build concrete construction services allow IAC to engage early in the pre-construction phase. This approach improves constructability, optimizes schedules, and ensures alignment between engineering and field execution.

With 57+ engineers across structural, civil, mechanical, and electrical disciplines, IAC delivers:

• Early-stage constructability reviews
• Foundation load analysis for heavy equipment
• Structural steel integration planning
• Soil compaction testing and concrete testing coordination
• Compliance with CRSI and EPD specifications

This collaborative model is especially valuable for greenfield facilities, plant expansions, and capital improvement projects where schedule certainty and performance reliability are critical.

Full-Service Industrial Concrete Contractor Capabilities

As a self-performing industrial concrete contractor, we execute:

• Deep concrete foundations – forming and pouring foundations over 10 feet deep
• Pile installation – displacement CFA, CFA, driven steel, rotary bored, and other specialized requirements
• Structural rebar cages – engineered, fabricated, and delivered on- or off-site
• Walls, slabs, flatwork, and stairs
• Equipment foundations for dryers, baghouses, silos, MCC buildings, and process systems
• Soils compaction and concrete testing coordination

Our crews are scalable to meet project demands:

• 400+ skilled craft personnel available as needed
• 6-day, 10-hour workweeks when required to maintain schedule
• Nationwide travel capability

Through Adelphi Construction, our wholly owned subsidiary, we self-perform foundations, structural steel erection, mechanical installation, and electrical scopes —giving owners a single source of accountability.

Integrated Foundations for Process Equipment and Storage Systems

Industrial foundations are not standalone scopes—they are performance-critical components of process systems.

IAC designs and installs foundations to support:

• Baghouse and dust collection systems
• Rotary dryers and thermal processing equipment
• Bulk storage silos and dome storage facilities
• Pneumatic conveying systems
• MCC buildings and automated control systems

By integrating foundation design with equipment layout and structural steel, we reduce misalignment, vibration issues, and long-term maintenance challenges. This approach aligns with best practices from organizations such as the Concrete Reinforcing Steel Institute (CRSI) for reinforced concrete performance in industrial environments.

Explore how our concrete and civil capabilities integrate with Bulk Storage, Silos & Loadouts to deliver complete material handling and storage solutions.

Turnkey Foundations and Civil Construction Under One Roof

IAC is a multi-dimensional, fully integrated EPC contractor. That means your foundations, structural concrete, steel erection, and equipment installation are managed as one coordinated scope—not fragmented across multiple contractors.

Benefits of working with IAC & Adelphi Construction:

• Single-source responsibility from concept to commissioning
• Fast-track project execution
• Reduced change orders and field conflicts
• Proven heavy industrial experience across cement, steel, mining, biomass, power generation, and more
• Field-proven safety culture with certified, OSHA-trained crews

From greenfield plant builds to CapEx retrofits and equipment upgrades, our industrial concrete construction teams deliver durable, compliance-ready foundations engineered for long-term reliability.
