Structural Steel Detailing, Drafting & Design

Structural steel drafting and detailing includes highly complex drawings created to benefit steel fabricators and erectors during installation. We produce detailed plans and designs that interpret the location and specifications of every steel component such as the steel beams, braces, joists, trusses, and columns that are to be installed in a steel structure.

Our detailing experts use Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) softwares that enable 3D steel detailing designs. These softwares allow us to pre-construct the steel frame in a virtual environment where the entire process is streamlined and accurate. Moreover, with three-dimensional views, complicated designs become more manageable and help in predicting potential conflicts. 

Our computer-aided 3D steel detailing acts as a reference for fabricators and erectors, thus minimizing the chances of misalignment. With this added precision, the final steel structures are always secure and sustainable. Some of these reference drawings include the following: 

Shop Drawings

These are specifically made for steel fabricators. They consist of structural steel detailing requirements that are exactly needed during the fabrication process. These instruct the workers on how each steel component is supposed to be built. They include information such as material specifications, number, size, etc. in order to fabricate them for assembly. 

Erection Drawings 

As the name suggests, these are created to benefit the steel erectors. It includes the basic details of how the fabricated steel components should be assembled or erected. These structural steel draftings provide dimensional plans to position each individual component. This way, erectors have an absolute illustration during fieldwork that helps them know the exact location of every part as they assemble the entire steel framework.
