Our Expertise Includes:

- 2D Drawings and 3D Modeling: We handle detailed 2D drawings, shop and erection drawings, and much more, harnessing the power of advanced 3D modeling software to ensure accuracy and precision in every detail.

- Structural Steel Detailing: Our services are designed to produce complete and accurate fabrication drawings for all structural steel elements as per the design drawings. This meticulous attention to detail supports efficient fabrication and installation processes.

- Pre-Installation Structure Analysis: Utilizing SDS2 and Tekla software, we perform thorough structural analyses prior to installation. This proactive approach helps identify and resolve potential issues, ensuring a streamlined construction process.

- Diverse Structural Capabilities: We have extensive experience detailing various types of steel structures including commercial buildings, high-rises, residential complexes, school buildings, office buildings, industrial/technological buildings, and Pre-Engineered Buildings (PEBs).

- Erection Plans and Installation Details: Our detailed erection plans, elevations, sections, and details are crafted for the proper and safe installation of structural steel, enhancing on-site efficiency and safety.

- Advanced 3D Structural Steel Detailing Programs: Our use of cutting-edge 3D detailing software allows us to virtually pre-construct the steel frame in a 3D environment. This capability provides a comprehensive 360-degree view of complex framing connections and helps foresee potential conflicts before they arise.

Comprehensive Fabricator and Erector Support Services:

To ensure that the fabrication and erection processes are as smooth as possible, we offer a full suite of support services including:

- Detailed Reports and CNC Files: Preparation of complete and accurate reports and CNC files for the shop and field.

- Material Interchange Files: Creation of detailed material interchange files to streamline the fabrication process.

- BIM Integration: The majority of our detailing information is exported directly from the Building Information Model (BIM) to ensure 100% coordination with the fabrication drawings.

Since the detailed drawings are interactively tied to the model, this approach ensures 100% connectivity of steel members. However, as with any program, the quality of the output depends on the quality of the input. The real power of these programs is realized when we combine these tools with the extensive experience of our structural steel detailers. . Their expertise allows us to optimize the design process, catching potential issues early and ensuring that every component is accurately represented in the model. This synergy between advanced technology and seasoned professionals not only streamlines workflows but also reduces errors and rework, ultimately saving time and resources. By leveraging this combination, we can guarantee precision in our projects, leading to more reliable structures and client satisfaction. Investing in both state-of-the-art software and skilled detailers is essential for staying ahead in today's competitive construction environment.

At Structural Drafting Group, we are committed to delivering structural steel detailing services that not only meet but exceed industry standards. Our expertise and advanced technological approach enable us to tackle projects of any scale and complexity with confidence and precision. Whether you are building a commercial high-rise or a specialized industrial facility, our team is equipped to support your project's success from conception through to completion.
