Scope of work: Industrial structural steel detailing
The Challenge
- The project required compliance with AISC standards and US fabrication practices.
- Approval processes demanded strict adherence to code and detailing conventions.
- Any non-compliance could result in resubmissions, delays, or fabrication holds.
- The contractor needed detailing outputs that would pass approvals first time.
Our Detailing Approach
- We adopted a code-driven detailing strategy, embedding AISC requirements directly into the Tekla model.
- Structural members and connections were detailed to meet US fabrication and erection standards.
- GA and shop drawings were produced with clarity and consistency to support approval workflows.
- QA/QC checks were applied to ensure compliance before drawing submission.
- Coordination with the contractor and fabricator ensured alignment with shop practices.
Deliverables
- AISC-compliant shop drawings.
- Coordinated GA drawings.
- Assembly drawings supporting erection sequencing.
- Fabrication files suitable for US fabrication shops.
Results & Value Delivered
- Achieved smooth approvals with minimal revisions.
- Enabled uninterrupted fabrication and erection.
- Reduced clarification queries during shop production.
- Supported predictable delivery on a code-sensitive project.
Value to the Client
- Delivered AISC-compliant steel detailing aligned with US contractor expectations.
- Reduced approval and fabrication risk.
- Improved confidence in drawing quality and compliance.
- Demonstrated strong experience in US industrial steel detailing projects.
