We are pleased to announce that Helmkamp, along with design-build partners Graycor, Vestal Corporation and Salas O'Brien have been awarded Wieland Group's landmark, multi-phase project to expand and modernize its East Alton facility, positioning Wieland as a key contributor to the energy transition and a renewable future. This transformational project, currently in preconstruction, highlights the unique and industry-leading technical knowledge and abilities of our joint construction team - Helmkamp and our partner Graycor, as well as our design partners, Vestal Corporation who will provide MEP design services, and Salas O'Brien who will provide process engineering design services. Helmkamp and Graycor have also been chosen as the construction team for the Casting Unit 6 (CU6) project, representing the first project in the overall capital investment plan. The project mobilized in April and when complete will increase casting capacity and the quality of copper production at the facility which originally opened in 1916.

✨ Some big & exciting equipment lifts were performed for an industrial client this week where the Helmkamp Construction Co. and Barnhart Crane & Rigging teams did a super job coordinating this effort. ✨ Here are some details about what you see in these photos: • This was a 2-crane lift utilizing a 350-ton & 550-ton crane. • The 110’ belt filter was transported to the foundation on an SPMT (self-propelled modular transporter). • The belt filters and rigging weighed approximately 130,000 pounds (65 tons). • Mobilization, set up of cranes, lifting & setting of 3 belt filters, and demobilization were all completed in 4 working days. Great job to all involved for the safe & smooth execution of this process. We are excited and proud to help this Gypsum Production Facility come to life at Prairie State Generating Company! #helmkamp #builderofchoice #since1938 #industrial #thinksafety #worksafely #safetyalways #callhelmkamp
