3D Model of the Steel Structure

We develop a precise and detailed 3D model representing the complete steel structure for visualization and data extraction.

General Arrangement Drawings

We generate clear General Arrangement (GA) drawings illustrating the overall layout, member locations, and main dimensions of the steel structure.

3D Views Drawings

We produce illustrative 3D view drawings extracted from the model to provide enhanced visualization of complex areas or connections.

Steel Fabrication Drawings

We issue comprehensive fabrication drawings (shop drawings) with all necessary details required for the accurate manufacturing of individual steel members and assemblies.

Parts and Erection Drawings

We supply detailed drawings outlining individual parts alongside clear erection plans guiding the safe and efficient assembly of the steel structure on site.

Parts, Cutting, Bolts lists

We generate accurate reports detailing all individual parts, material cutting requirements (like CNC data), and necessary bolt summaries for procurement and assembly.
