Data centers and semiconductor plants demand power, water, and precision at industrial scale. GBI builds the infrastructure that makes them run.
Data centers and chip fabs are among the most schedule-driven, capital-intensive construction environments in the country. Every day of delay carries real cost. Every megawatt, every gallon of cooling water, every foot of piping runs to a tolerance that can't slip. And every trade has to hand off cleanly to the next — because the schedule doesn't leave room for rework.
That is the environment GBI was built for. The tank, structural, mechanical, piping, and electrical work these facilities require is the same work GBI has self-performed for oil and gas, mining, and power owners for over two decades — under the same code stack, the same QA program, and the same accountability model.
Medium- and low-voltage distribution, MCC buildings, switchgear, generator paralleling, controls, and fiber. Cable tray, conduit, wire pulls, and terminations at gear and panels — all self-performed by GBI I&E crews.
Chilled water plants, cooling towers, air handlers, and cooling fan installation. Large-diameter mechanical systems that move heat off the load, installed by GBI crews and turned over ready to run.
Chilled water, condenser water, glycol, and fuel oil piping installation to ASME B31.3 where applicable. Field welding, spool erection, hydro testing, flush and fill, and turnover under one QA program.
Chiller plant structures, catwalks, pipe racks, generator support, and equipment platforms. Erected and installed by GBI crews to project drawings.
Fire water, cooling water, glycol, and diesel fuel storage. Fabricated to API 650, AWWA D100, and ASME Section VIII where applicable — the same tank capability GBI has delivered to industrial owners for decades.
ASME Section VIII pressure vessels under GBI's U and U2 stamps, plus custom process skids and plate steel weldments produced in the Plymouth, Utah fabrication shop for installation by GBI crews — a critical capability for chip fab process systems.
Data center and fab projects live or die on how well the trades hand off to each other. Tanks feed into mechanical, mechanical feeds into piping, piping feeds into electrical, electrical feeds into controls. When GBI is on the job, all of those disciplines report to one project team under one QA program. The left hand knows what the right hand is doing.
GBI came up doing schedule-critical work for midstream operators, mining owners, and power plants — environments where a shutdown costs more per day than most industries earn in a quarter. That schedule discipline transfers directly. Advanced facilities push the same lever.
ASME U and U2. ASME S. National Board R. API 650 and 653. AWWA D100. ASTM. NFPA. Licensed Professional Engineers on staff. New build through in-service repair, one contractor, one QA program — a combination few contractors carry.
GBI's Plymouth, Utah fabrication shop produces tanks, pressure vessels, custom skids, and plate steel work for our own installation crews. Shop capacity is scheduled around field need, not the other way around — which means fewer vendor interfaces on the fabricated scope, and one less critical-path dependency on a 24-month build.
