Project Snapshot

Project type: Commercial manufacturing facility

Location: USA

Project scale: Large

Client type: Main Contractor

Project status: Completed

Software: Tekla Structures, AutoCAD, Ideastatica

Scope of work: Large-scale structural steel and RC detailing

The Challenge

  1. The project involved high volumes of structural steel, requiring consistent and repeatable detailing.
  2. Tight programme requirements demanded steady drawing output without compromising quality.
  3. Inconsistent detailing could disrupt fabrication flow and site sequencing.
  4. The contractor required a detailing partner capable of managing scale without loss of control.

Our Detailing Approach

  1. We implemented a systematic detailing process, focusing on repeatable modelling standards and connection logic.
  2. Tekla models were structured to support high-volume output while maintaining clarity and accuracy.
  3. QA/QC checkpoints were embedded into the detailing workflow to ensure consistency across drawing packages.
  4. Drawing releases were planned to support continuous fabrication and erection.
  5. All detailing was delivered in accordance with AISC standards and US construction practices.

Deliverables

  1. Fabrication-ready shop drawings.
  2. Coordinated GA drawings.
  3. Assembly drawings supporting erection sequencing.
  4. Fabrication files aligned with high-volume shop production.

Results & Value Delivered

  1. Delivered consistent detailing outputs across a large steel package.
  2. Supported uninterrupted fabrication through reliable drawing quality.
  3. Reduced rework and clarification queries.
  4. Enabled steady site progress on a large commercial project.

Value to the Client

  1. Delivered scalable steel detailing capability for a large-volume project.
  2. Reduced fabrication risk through standardized detailing.
  3. Improved predictability in shop and site operations.
  4. Demonstrated strong experience in large-scale US commercial steel projects.
