"Midwest Steel, Inc. is recognized as a World Class Partner."

Computerized AS/RS are designed for automated storage and retrieval of parts and/or items in manufacturing, distribution, retail and wholesale. In the last two years, Midwest Steel, Inc. has been the “contractor of choice” for nine design build AS/RS projects with Fastenal.

Midwest Steel’s specialty of high tolerance AS/RS racking is accomplished through a highly collaborative process. An innovative core team of engineering, project management, detailing and installation professionals develop thoroughly integrated design, fabrication and erection of AS/RS structures. Midwest Steel provides custom designs which balance volatile material prices, fabrication and transportation costs with installation schemes matched to the site conditions.

Through a proven Design Build process, the Midwest Steel team provides:

• Concepting and System Layout with Corporate Partner Logistics Teams.
• Coordination with the Design Build General Contractor that includes detailed pre-project planning and timely updates on budgets and schedules.

• Structural slab analysis, foundation design and existing building structural analysis.
• Site-specific and detailed rack design, fabrication and installation, including safety plans.
