S.B. Ballard and Nucor
Industrial Construction Powered by Steel
Flexibility is critical in maintaining position as a regional leader in the design/build industry. Known widely for our innovative construction projects in Southeastern Virginia and beyond, S.B. Ballard continues to forge new relationships to meet the needs of the industrial and manufacturing sectors.
That’s why, as the only Nucor Building Systems partner in the region, we are able to create new efficiency, gain strength and lead innovative projects with custom manufactured steel buildings.


S.B. Ballard is notable in the region for its green building practices.
Sustainably Strong Steel – Responsibly Built
S.B. Ballard is notable in the region for its green building practices, which is one of many reasons we are proud to partner with Nucor. Steel is THE most recycled material on the planet, which makes it an ideal choice for sustainable and “green” building. Most Nucor building systems are manufactured with over 70% recycled steel, making it a responsible choice for industrial construction. Nucor is a member of the USGBC® (U.S. Green Building Council) and is an ISO14001:2015 Certified Building Manufacturer. This certification ensures stringent adherence to proper waste management and environmental protection protocols. Most of S.B. Ballard’s Nucor installations also include a proprietary Cool Coating Technology, which generates lower environmental temperatures, and reduces smog and heat island effects. The revolutionary coatings, originally developed for the U.S. Military’s Stealth Aircraft, also provide energy reduction for cooling in hot summer months.
