Project Snapshot
Project type: Industrial warehouse
Location: Ireland
Project scale: Medium
Client type: Main Contractor
Project status: Completed
Software: Tekla Structures, AutoCAD, Ideastatica
Scope of work: structural steel detailing
The Challenge
- The warehouse layout was logistics-driven, requiring careful sequencing of steel delivery and erection.
- The project was delivered on a fast-track program, leaving little margin for delays in detailing.
- Drawing releases needed to align closely with fabrication and site erection priorities.
- Any delay or misalignment could impact downstream trades and overall schedule.
Our Detailing Approach
- We adopted a schedule-focused detailing strategy, planning modelling and drawing outputs around fabrication and erection sequences.
- The steel structure was modelled in Tekla with clear member logic and erection order in mind.
- Drawing packages were issued in phased releases, aligned with site and fabrication priorities.
- Close coordination with the contractor ensured detailing outputs matched real site logistics.
- All detailing was delivered in accordance with Eurocodes and Irish industrial practices.
Deliverables
- Fabrication-ready shop drawings.
- Clear GA drawings supporting site coordination.
- Assembly drawings aligned with erection sequencing.
- Fabrication files suitable for shop production.
Results & Value Delivered
- Enabled on-schedule fabrication through timely drawing release.
- Supported efficient site erection without sequencing conflicts.
- Reduced fabrication queries through clear, practical detailing.
- Improved overall program certainty.
Value to the Client
- Delivered schedule-aligned steel detailing for a fast-track project.
- Reduced risk of delays caused by late or unclear drawings.
- Supported predictable fabrication and erection workflows.
- Demonstrated strong experience in Ireland-based industrial steel projects.
