• Concrete rectangular and circular tank design
• Deep foundation wall systems
• Deep pile foundations systems
• Wind lateral resistance systems
• Seismic lateral resistance systems
• Bridge crane and monorail hoist support system

A different challenge occurs when a plant is performing poorly. The causes of the problems need to be identified and corrected through either capital improvements or operational adjustment. An approach to meeting the challenges is to bring in experienced personnel to guide plant staff through the learning process and to train them on operating and maintenance procedures.

Jones & Henry’s operators and engineers have assisted many communities in modifying operation and maintenance approaches to enhance plant performance. Additionally, we provide personnel to meet temporary needs.

Our operators have many years of experience and hold the highest licenses in their respective states. Our engineers, who are also highly experienced, assist in identifying equipment problems and designing solutions to these problems.
