The Critical Role of a Steel Detailer
A skilled steel detailer is integral to the success and progress of any construction project. Their expertise goes beyond drafting; they must possess a deep understanding of construction regulations, guidelines, and industry standards. Familiarity with OSHA, AISC, ISO, minimum bearing limits, and best practices is essential to ensuring that every detail aligns with structural integrity and safety requirements. A proficient detailer can simplify even the most complex projects, making them seamless and efficient for fabricators.

Our commitment to delivering exceptional results at reasonable rates has fostered long-lasting relationships with our clients. We welcome the opportunity to impress your company and exceed your expectations.
What We Deliver to Clients
We provide high-quality, detailed 3D models of steel structures that offer a comprehensive visual and structural representation. These models are crucial for design validation, clash detection, and ensuring that all components fit seamlessly during fabrication and construction.
Our 2D erection drawings are meticulously prepared to guide the on-site assembly of steel structures. These include detailed instructions for positioning, alignment, and connections of steel components, ensuring an efficient and error-free erection process while minimizing construction delays.
We deliver a wide range of industry-standard digital files tailored for fabrication. These files include DXF for CNC cutting, KISS for production management, NC1 for machining, and formats like STEP, IGES, and DSTV for interoperability with diverse CAD and manufacturing systems. These ensure seamless integration into your fabrication workflow.
Our foundation plans include detailed layouts and schedules for footings and columns. These specify dimensions, reinforcement details, and load-bearing requirements, ensuring the structure’s base is designed for maximum stability and adherence to engineering standards. These plans help streamline construction while meeting safety and quality benchmarks.
