Twelve piece marks, one detailing package
Each service below is tagged the way a real steel piece is tagged - a unique mark that follows it from drawing to shop to field.
PM-01 · Shop Drawings
Structural Steel Shop Drawings Alabama
Complete structural steel shop drawings built to the AISC 303 Code of Standard Practice, covering beams, columns, girders, and bracing for fabrication-ready release. Every piece mark is dimensioned, labeled, and cross-referenced against the engineer of record's design drawings before it reaches your shop floor. We flag connection conflicts, bolt-pattern clashes, and missing design information early, so RFIs stay low and your fabricators start cutting with confidence instead of guessing at intent.
PM-02 · Erection
Steel Erection Drawings & Sequencing Alabama
Erection drawings and plans that tell your ironworkers exactly what goes up, in what order, and how it connects, with piece marks matched precisely to the shop drawing set. We sequence columns, beams, and bracing by lift stage, mark field bolts versus shop bolts, and note crane-critical picks. Clear erection sets reduce field rework, keep crews moving safely, and shorten the gap between steel delivery and topping out on Alabama job sites.
PM-03 · Connections
Steel Connection Detailing (Bolted & Welded) Alabama
Engineered and detailer-designed connections for moment, shear, and brace conditions, built around AISC 360 and AWS D1.1 requirements. We detail bolted shear tabs, welded moment plates, gusset plates, and higher-risk connections with full weld symbols and bolt callouts. Every connection is checked against the specified load path and the building's risk category before release, so fabricators and inspectors see a drawing that matches the structural engineering intent exactly.
PM-04 · Base / Anchor
Base Plate & Anchor Bolt Detailing Alabama
Base plate and anchor bolt layouts coordinated tightly with the foundation and civil drawings so bolts land where the concrete crew actually poured them. We detail plate thickness, weld sizing, grout space, and bolt projection for column bases, equipment supports, and embedded connections. Getting this piece right the first time avoids the costly field fix of re-drilling or field-welding a base plate that doesn't match the anchor bolt pattern already cast in place.
PM-05 · Misc. Steel
Miscellaneous Steel Detailing Alabama
Stairs, guardrails, handrails, ladders, platforms, and canopy steel detailed to match your project's architectural and life-safety requirements. This is the steel that gets built last and inspected hardest, so we detail tread pans, stringer connections, rail post spacing, and platform framing to code-compliant tolerances. Miscellaneous steel is released as a coordinated package so your fabricator can price and build stairs and rails alongside the main structural steel.
PM-06 · Tekla
Tekla Structures Steel Detailing Alabama
Full 3D steel models built in Tekla Structures, generating shop drawings, erection drawings, NC/DSTV files, and material lists straight from a single intelligent model. Modeling connections in 3D catches clashes between steel, embeds, and adjacent trades before fabrication instead of on the job site. If your fabricator runs Tekla or needs DSTV output for CNC equipment, we deliver a model built to their workflow, not just a set of 2D sheets.
PM-07 · SDS/2
SDS/2 Steel Detailing Alabama
Structural steel detailing produced in SDS/2 for fabricators and detailers who work in that environment, including automated connection design, shop drawings, erection sets, and NC file output. We match your existing SDS/2 project standards, macros, and drawing templates so files drop straight into your production workflow without a format translation step or a second round of setup on your end.
PM-08 · BIM / Clash
BIM Steel Modeling & Clash Coordination Alabama
Steel models built to LOD 300-400 and coordinated against architectural, MEP, and civil models before fabrication begins. We run clash detection between structural steel and ductwork, piping, and embeds, documenting conflicts with markup so the design team resolves them on screen instead of in the field. Coordinated steel models keep your general contractor's federated model clean and your steel package free of surprise conflicts at erection.
PM-09 · 3D Modeling
3D Structural Steel Modeling Alabama
Construction-accurate 3D models of structural steel framing, used for design review, owner presentations, and constructability studies before drawings are released. Models show true member sizes, connection geometry, and clearances, giving engineers and contractors a way to walk through the frame and catch layout issues while changes are still cheap to make, well before steel is ordered from an Alabama mill.
PM-10 · PEB
Pre-Engineered Metal Building (PEB) Detailing Alabama
Detailing for pre-engineered metal building systems, including primary rigid frames, secondary framing, girts, purlins, and bracing, coordinated with the building manufacturer's design output. We produce erection drawings, anchor bolt plans, and material lists that match the manufacturer's connection standards, helping general contractors and erectors move straight from steel delivery to erection without re-verifying dimensions in the field.
PM-11 · Fabrication
Steel Fabrication Drawings & Material Takeoffs Alabama
Fabrication-ready drawings paired with accurate bills of material and takeoffs, so your shop can order material, plan cut lists, and quote the job from one reliable package. We list piece marks, quantities, grades, and weights per member, cross-checked against the shop drawing set, reducing the back-and-forth between estimating, purchasing, and the drafting table on tight-schedule Alabama projects.
PM-12 · Outsourcing
Steel Detailing Outsourcing for Fabricators & Contractors Alabama
An extension of your detailing department for fabricators, subcontractors, and general contractors who need overflow capacity without hiring. We work inside your existing standards, software, and drawing templates, taking on full projects or specific packages during busy stretches. You keep the client relationship and final sign-off; we handle the drafting hours in the background, scaled up or down as your workload changes. See our full services for related drafting support.
