PT&P designed and manufactured 157 embed plates for a construction company in Texas. Embeds are essentially anchor bars used to secure steel to the concrete. The plate is ¾” x 14″ x 18″, and the Nelson studs are ¾” x 7″. All components are fabricated from carbon steel with a hot-dipped galvanized finish. Visual and Q.C. tests were performed prior to shipment. This job was a 15-day turnaround in order to meet the customers’ construction schedule.
Embeds are usually set in concrete foundations, floors, or piers and are a key component in the construction industry for connecting steel to concrete. Virtually all “grass-roots” projects such as chemical, power, refinery, solar, food processing, mining, and green energy plants contain embedded steel as a part of its foundation. These can also be used in automotive, semiconductor, and now battery plants. We have the ability and knowhow to custom manufacture various sizes, types and can utilize different materials to meet our client specifications.
Our Houston based manufacturing operations allow us to meet tight delivery schedules at most project job sites allowing for cash flow management of the project and substantially reduced supply chain risk. Typically embeds and anchor bolts have time criticality considerations because the concrete construction teams must mobilize in a timely fashion so logistics and cost can be managed effectively.

Within these cooling towers, screen guides are used in a gravity-flow distribution system where supply water flows or cascades down over successive offset levels of horizontal screens or splash bars into a basin. These guides provide a means by which screens or splash bars are supported from a concrete structure. The screens are intended to lower the temperature of water by causing the water to spread over large areas to promote maximum exposure to airflow as it cascades from the top of the tower into the lower basin. One side of the guide provides a “slot” by which screens or other types of “surfaces” can be installed. The other side of the guides are fitted with bent “strip anchor bars” similar to those used for embed plates. As a manufacturer of embed plates, we also supply these for mining facilities, semiconductor plants, wastewater treatment plants, or any construction site where there is steel attached to a concrete panel or slab.
