Yuengling Brewery Expansion- Pottsville, Pa.

Client: Miller Brothers Construction
Project: 400 tons of structural steel fabrication and erection for a new brewery expansion
Services provided: Detailing, Fabrication, Erection, Project Management
Industry: Industrial
Project turnaround: 3 months

JGM provided the structural steel fabrication and erection for Yuengling Brewery’s new fermentation tanks. JGM was contacted for this project due to our ability to meet the aggressive schedule and continue to coordinate with the other trades as the designs were completed during the shop drawing phase. The project’s success was based on our ability to coordinate with both the pre-cast manufacturer and the tank manufacturer. Due to the tight site condition, JGM also provided a very detailed erection plan. JGM coordinated all truck schedules down to the minute in order to ensure plant and construction operations could continue. This project was completed one week ahead of schedule and with zero injuries.

Testimonial:
“It took approximately 18 months from concept to completion on the brewing cellars expansion project that was recently completed at our Mill Creek facility. The structural steel portion of the process for which JGM supplied the steel, rigging and project management was incredible to watch. They finished ahead of schedule, did it in a safe manner and there were so few errors or issues on the steel fabrication when they went to install it that it was hard to believe. During their time onsite, they were all business and interested in doing everything they needed to do to make their portion successful. It was a pleasure working with them and I would recommend them to anyone. A job well done.”
