Structural steel detailing services involve creating detailed drawings and models of steel structures such as buildings, bridges, and towers. These drawings and models are used by engineers, architects, and contractors to ensure that the steel structure is fabricated and erected accurately and safely.

The process of structural steel detailing typically involves the following steps:

  • Reviewing the design: The steel detailer reviews the design and specifications of the steel structure provided by the engineer or architect.
  • Creating detailed drawings: Using computer-aided design (CAD) software, the steel detailer creates detailed drawings of the structure, including plans, elevations, sections, and details.
  • Generating 3D models: The steel detailer may also create 3D models of the structure to provide a more comprehensive view of the design.
  • Specifying materials: The steel detailer specifies the types and grades of steel to be used in the structure, as well as any necessary connections and hardware.
  • Checking for conflicts: The steel detailer checks the drawings and models for conflicts with other trades, such as mechanical and electrical systems.
  • Coordinating with fabricators and erectors: The steel detailer coordinates with the fabricator and erector to ensure that the structure is fabricated and erected correctly.

Overall, structural steel detailing is a critical component of the construction process that helps ensure the safety and accuracy of steel structures.
