Our Services

We supply not only customized engineered solutions, but also provide a range of field and fabrication services to implement those solutions on your project.

More specifically, these are some of the areas where the Sonoran Group can have a positive impact on your wet utility projects:

  1. Engineering Services by Professional Engineers

  2. Fabrication of steel pipe and fittings such as headers, manifolds and special bends

  3. Supply of Welded Steel Pipe (WSP / AWWA C200), Prestressed Conccrete Cylinder Pipe (PCCP / AWWA C301), Concrete Cylinder Pipe (CCP / AWWA C303) and associated accessories

  4. Manufacture of PCCP Emergency Repair Kits

  5. Constructability Reviews and Tie-In Methodology

  6. SOP development for Large Valve and/or accessway installation on existing pipelines

  7. Condition Evaluation of existing pipe material and appurtenances

We specialize in the pipe materials that represent the most risk for our customers.

 

Engineering and Design

Our engineers routinely perform designs in accordance with AWWA M9 and M11, but also have experience with other design manuals and standards outside of AWWA.

Shop Drawings and Layout Services

Sometimes, at or before your project is designed, it is beneficial to create a model to visualize the solutions available to the project team.

We have both 2D and 3D modelling capabilities to bring concepts to life.

Our drafting team specializes in large diameter piping systems and are able to quickly model constraints that most engineering firms miss such as:

1.       Required Dimensions for Fabricated Steel Water Pipe Fittings (per AWWA C208 and M11)

2.       Miter End Cuts and Hoop Tension Concentration

3.       Outlet Design and Reinforcement

4.       Joint Harness and Restraint

5.       Anchor Ring and Thrust Block / Thrust Wall Design

6.       Civil Appurtenance Clash Detection (Manholes, Valves, Vaults, Actuators, etc)

Fabrication

Our in-house fabrication team can build anything. A collection of welders, fitters, and industrial coating specialists - we like to brag that we have the best of the best. They make our engineered solutions reality.

Field Services

As our capabilities evolved, it was a natural progression for us to migrate our abilities into the field to better serve our customers. 

No matter if it’s a difficult connection or you simply need a quick hand – we’re here for you.

All of our employees are competent in excavation safety and confined space entry.  We have worked on projects all over Arizona for a multitude of clients – both inside and outside of Wastewater Treatment Facilities, Water Treatment Plants, and Surge Systems.

We specialize in working with General Contractors by supplementing their horsepower with our unique abilities to assure a successful project.
