Service Overview

Detailing Built Around Real Project Workflows

Pre-engineered metal buildings bring primary framing, secondary members, roof and wall systems, connections, and accessories together as an integrated structural package. Reliable documentation is essential for coordinating these systems from engineering through fabrication and erection.

Our team develops structured PEMB models and drawing packages based on the approved project information. We focus on member relationships, connection information, openings, anchor locations, cladding interfaces, and clear cross-referencing between general arrangements, shop details, and erection documentation.

Quality & Precision Highlights

Engineered For Manufacturing & Field Execution

System Coordination

Alignment of primary framing, secondary members, bracing, openings, accessories, and interfaces.

Fabrication Readiness

Clear member details, marks, dimensions, connection information, and cross-references.

Erection Clarity

Organized plans and elevations that communicate member locations and building assembly relationships.

Scope & Deliverables

What Our Team Can Deliver

The final scope is aligned to the available design information, project stage, client standards, and agreed deliverable requirements.

Structural Modeling

Coordinated representation of the metal-building system, geometry, member relationships, and project interfaces.

General Arrangement Drawings

Plans, elevations, sections, grids, levels, slopes, building dimensions, and framing references.

Primary Framing Details

Documentation for rigid frames, columns, rafters, end-wall frames, and related primary structural members.

Secondary Framing Details

Coordinated information for purlins, girts, eave struts, bracing, and other secondary components.

Roof & Wall Framing

Layouts and details covering roof slopes, wall lines, transitions, openings, edges, and system interfaces.

Connection Detailing

Project-specific connection documentation based on the supplied engineering and design information.

Anchor Bolt Layouts

Coordinated anchor locations, grids, dimensions, orientations, and base references for foundation interfaces.

Fabrication Drawings

Member and component drawings organized for practical review and fabrication processes.

Erection Drawings

Plans, elevations, marks, and references that communicate building assembly and member locations.

BIM & CAD Documentation

Consistent model and drawing outputs supporting coordination, review, fabrication, and project delivery.

Delivery Workflow

From Project Information to Coordinated Deliverables

01

Building Definition

Review geometry, design information, loading criteria supplied by the engineer, openings, accessories, and project standards.

02

System Coordination

Coordinate primary frames, secondary members, bracing, connections, anchor locations, roof and wall interfaces.

03

Fabrication Documentation

Prepare general arrangements, member details, shop drawings, anchor layouts, and coordinated schedules.

04

Erection & Revision Support

Develop erection information, complete quality reviews, and manage comments or revised project data.

Multi-Disciplinary Coordination

Eliminating Conflicts Before Construction Begins

Our engineering and detailing workflow identifies geometry discrepancies, reinforcement congestion, embed clearances, and structural interfaces early to streamline production and erection on site.
