Steel detailing services are fundamental for constructing formidable structures

Steel detailing services are constitutive or essential part of any structural engineering project and attention to details is a prerequisite condition in this context. That means technicians executing steel detailing services are required to pay attention to all minute details. Steel detailing process is executed for the deliberate purpose of developing structural drawings that incorporates shop drawings and erection drawings. Structural detailers are the people who develop structural shop drawing along with erection drawings with the close support of structural engineers.

Even a small mistake committed by detailers during steel detailing can results in huge lose of money and time of the project in question. Steel detailing is imperative and compulsory for all kinds of construction project such as building projects, construction of factories and other commercial projects. In other words any structure constructed with steel requires steel detailing services for it.

Drawings developed during steel detailing are used by fabricators, contractors, structural engineers, and construction companies etc. For fabricating a steel component, the availability of structural shop drawings is a must for fabricators. They acquire all the

information about the structural steel components in question from structural shop drawings that are created by detailers. Information incorporated in structural shop drawings include size and dimensions of steel members, material specifications, details regarding welding, painting and bolting and other imperative information associated with the fabrication of the components. All this information must be contained with at most accuracy in the structural shop drawings for the precise fabrication of structural components.

Apart from structural shop drawings erection drawings are equally important for structural steel projects. And hence immaculate erection drawings are developed by steel detailers at the time of steel detailing. Information such as location of individual steel members within the structural framework is included in erection drawings. This assists steel erectors in figuring out where to place which steel component at the time of erection of structures in the proposed locations.

Drawings generated by steel detailers must be approved by structural engineers prior to their dispersal to fabricators, construction companies and other potential clients. In short immaculate structural drawings lead to the construction of effective and formidable structures.
