Another day, another successful heavy haul in Barnhart Red. Our Houston team recently received two vessels ship-side at the Port of Houston and transported them safely to Formosa Plastics in Point Comfort, Texas. The move brought together two heavy haul workhorses: a 14-line THP and a 9-axle STZ. With careful planning, coordinated execution, and a safety-first approach, the team delivered another strong example of heavy transport. #Barnhart #HeavyHaul #HeavyTransport #PortLogistics #Industrial #Goldhofer

What if your team could see new ways to reduce outage time without leaving your site? Yesterday, we brought our Rigging Demonstration Trailer to Tennessee Valley Authority Sequoyah Nuclear Plant to show teams how engineered rigging tools and concepts can help improve safety, reduce labor hours, and lower maintenance costs. Live demonstrations help teams visualize better options before the work begins. Contact your Barnhart representative to schedule a demo at your facility. #MindsOverMatter #Barnhart #Rigging #NuclearPower #Maintenance

June is #NationalSafetyMonth. 🦺 Safety is one of our core values and a culture our teams have been building for decades. Through programs like our Tactical Self Preservation classes, Barnhart University, and hands-on field training, team members across the company receive training that supports safer decisions, stronger communication, and greater responsibility for one another on the job. This month, we are proud to join the National Safety Council in moving safety forward. What does safety mean to you? Share your thoughts in the comments. ⬇️ #Barnhart #NSM #Safety #MindsOverMatter

Bond Technologies is currently building one of the most ambitious machines in company history: a large-scale Friction Stir Welding platform for NASA - National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Multipurpose Weld Tool (MWT). Bond’s Agilis platform (GG7) will be the basis for NASA’s Multipurpose Weld Tool (MWT). Bond is in the late stages of building the gantry-style welder. Once complete, the system will be delivered and installed at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Designed for welding rocket bodies, propellant tanks, and other large-scale flight hardware, the system represents a significant step forward in solid-state joining capabilities for aerospace applications. The Gantry Weld Tool represents the largest footprint gantry machine ever built by Bond Technologies and the company’s first full-scale rocket welding system.

Good Morning All! ☢️ We're looking for a Nuclear Project Manager here at our Barnhart Chicago branch! ☢️ Between the professional structure, unique projects, great benefits, and incredibly collaborative community full of brilliant, helpful co-workers (from top to bottom!), I cannot speak highly enough about Barnhart. We're the industry leader in what we do for a reason! 🫂 If it's any testament to that, I relocated all the way from New York to Chicago just to work here! And even as a biased New Yorker, I must admit, Chicago is a pretty awesome place to live. Plus, the team we have at the Chicago branch is, objectively, one of the best. 😉 The ideal candidate would have experience in Project Management within the Construction or Nuclear industry (preferably both) and a team-oriented "go-getter" mindset! 👊🏾 The posting is linked below. Come join our team!
