We offer shop drawing/detail drawing/fabrication drawing that is used for every project. If you don't have shop drawings of your project, we can generate shop drawings with the help of your engineer and exciting drawings.
Understanding of shop drawing
what are Shop Drawings? Shop drawings (also known as fabrication drawings) are detailed plans that translate design intent. They provide fabricators with the information necessary to manufacture, fabricate, assemble and install all the components of a structure. This includes materials and dimensions required, as well as explanations for assembly, installation, and erection. In general, engineers, steel detailers, steel modelers, and fabricators are responsible for creating shop drawings. They generally include the following information:
- Information required for fabrication, such as dimensions and special instructions including connection details
- Applicable fabrication standards
- Installation and erection information
- Dimensions that require on-site verification
- Comparisons to the construction documents to enable approval by the architect or engineer
- Notes on changes from the construction documents to enable approval by the architect or engineer.
Why Shop Drawings are ImportantPrecise, accurate structural steel fabrication drawings are essential and can help:
- Ensure clear communication between the architect or designer, the client, and the fabricator.
- Ensure that the fabrication process flows seamlessly, as there is no need to halt fabrication to confirm missing details or dimensions. In this way, shop drawings help to expedite the timeline of construction.
- Provide the fabricator with sufficient detail to ensure that steel elements are structurally sound and adhere to all necessary safety, quality, and project standards.
- Reduce, or even eliminate, fabrication rework by resolving issues and clashes early on. As such, unnecessary expenditure on additional labor and materials is avoided.
