Company History

For many years in the Washington, D.C. area, Williams Enterprises erected bridges for a local fabricator. When that company stopped fabricating steel bridge girders, Williams Enterprises, using many of their qualified people, built a steel bridge girder fabrication shop in Manassas, Virginia, for the primary purpose of keeping its steel bridge erection business in the area.

Founded in 1985, the company became the Fabrication Division of Williams Enterprises. Its mission was to fabricate bridges for the nation's highway system. In October 1987, the company acquired a second facility in Richmond, Virginia. In August 1992, the employees and assets of the Fabrication Division were transferred to the newly formed Williams Bridge Company. Today, WBC is a leading member of the Williams Industries, Inc., corporate family.

WBC has steadily grown and has become a major fabricator of structural steel for bridge superstructures. The company is fabricates heavy industrial and commercial structural steel in addition to large, complicated plate weldments and other specialized products.

WBC maintains the highest standards with an AISC Category III Certification with both "Fracture Critical" and "Sophisticated Paint" endorsements. The American Institute of Steel Construction is the most widely recognized association in the nation, representing and serving the fabricated structural steel industry. Many state highway departments award business only to those few firms who meet AISC's stringent guidelines.
