Fabrication Notes
A shop drawing has to survive the fab floor and the field: a fabricator cutting to it, a fitter welding to it, and an ironworker matching piece marks on-site. We detail structural steel for North Carolina fabricators, contractors, and engineers so the package matches how your crew actually builds.
Drafting Buddies models in Tekla Structures, checks for fit, and delivers steel shop drawings, erection drawings, and connection details on schedule. We work from engineer-issued design drawings - we don't stamp structural calculations - and hand back a coordinated set your shop can fabricate from directly.
From Charlotte high-rises to warehouse frames across the Piedmont, North Carolina shops get the same named-detailer workflow, AISC-checked drawings, and fast-track options when the mill order can't wait.
Serving fabricators & contractors statewide
Member Schedule
Ten steel detailing services, tagged the way your fabrication shop already tracks steel - jump to any mark below.
Beams · Columns · Braces
Full detailing for beams, columns, braces, plates, and framing members - dimensioned, marked, and ready for fabrication. We work from engineer-issued design drawings to produce a complete structural steel model your shop can fabricate from directly.
Fabrication
Member-level shop drawings with dimensions, bolt patterns, weld symbols, and piece marks - the exact information your fabrication shop needs to cut, drill, and assemble each piece correctly the first time.
Cut & Assembly
Detailed cutting and assembly drawings built for the fab shop, not just the field. We separate fabrication intent from erection intent so your team gets exactly the drawing type each stage of the job needs - including fabrication CAD sets.
Field Install
Erection plans that lay out member identification, framing sequence, and field installation details clearly enough for the crew hanging iron to move fast and stay accurate on-site.
Bolted · Welded
Bolted, welded, moment, shear, and braced-frame connections detailed to match the engineer's design intent - clear enough that there's no guesswork on the shop floor about how two members meet.
3D Modeling
Full steel detailing built natively in Tekla Structures - accurate 3D models that generate shop drawings, erection drawings, DSTV files, and IFC models directly from a single coordinated source.
Clash Detection
Coordinated structural BIM steel models - in Tekla or Revit - run through clash detection against MEP and architectural models before fabrication starts, so conflicts get caught on screen, not on site. Aligns with our BIM services in North Carolina.
Estimating Support
Accurate steel quantity takeoffs and bills of material pulled straight from the detailed model - giving estimating and procurement numbers they can order from with confidence.
Drawing Review
Every drawing set is reviewed against the design documents and AISC standards before it reaches your shop - checking dimensions, connections, and coordination so errors get caught before steel gets cut.
By Building Type
From commercial office buildings to warehouses, industrial plants, multifamily structures, and institutional projects - we detail steel to match the codes, loads, and schedule pressures each building type brings.
Fabrication Notes
We detail for the shop floor and the field, not just the model - so drawings match how your crew actually builds.
Native Tekla, Revit, and SDS/2 workflows, with DSTV and IFC exports ready for CNC and coordination.
Every set is checked against the design documents and AISC standards before it leaves our shop.
Realistic schedules communicated up front, with fast-track options when your project timeline demands it.
Tools & Software
Native steel detailing for member modeling, connections, shop drawings, DSTV export, and IFC models from one source.
Revit-native structural models and coordination when the project BIM standard requires it.
Structural steel detailing and fabrication modeling for shops standardized on SDS/2 workflows.
CNC-ready fabrication files for direct import into beam lines, plasma tables, and drill lines.
Coordinated IFC exports for clash detection and multi-discipline BIM modeling exchange before fabrication starts.
Federated clash detection against architectural, MEP, and civil models before steel is ordered.

Specification Notes
Shop drawings are member-level fabrication sheets - dimensions, bolt patterns, weld symbols, and piece marks your shop uses to cut, drill, and assemble each piece. Erection drawings are for the field: member identification, framing layout, and installation sequence so the crew hanging iron can place steel accurately on-site. We produce both from the same coordinated Tekla model.
