Facts About Structural Steel Detailing Services

Description:

The industry of structural steel detailing services seems to be on the upraise. It used to be a field where only protractors, pens, pencils, and calculators used to work. However, over a few years, advanced technology has taken over and made the job easier for a steel detailer. These days, manual drafting is steadily going obsolete. The primary reason behind this would be that most detailers are now being experts in computer-aided drafting, widely known CAD. In comparison with other industries, the steel detailing turns out to stay here for a longer time. However, what would be the actual reason behind it? Here are some of the interesting facts and aspects that you must know about steel detailing services. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Structural steel detailing is a process of
creating shop drawings for a steel fabricator.
Generally, a steel fabricator is a company that
offers or installs the framework of steel for a
construction project.

The job of a steel detailer is to generate such
drawings that a fabricator would use to cut as
well as weld all the essential aspects together.
Not just that, but a steel detailer also creates
an instructional layout to ease the erection and
installation of the entire steel framework.
3
Lighter Form
  • When compared with wood, steel is a lighter
    element. Thats quite true. Although if you
    compare a piece of wood with a piece of steel,
    you might not believe this fact, however, owing
    to the method of construction necessary to frame,
    steel turns out to be lighter than wood.

4
Less Investment of Money
  • Now, if the element would be lighter, the efforts
    and money invested in completing the entire task
    would decrease as well. It would need lesser
    working hours to assemble the frame. Also, the
    shipping cost would be smaller too as the weight
    to ship would be less.

5
Faster Process of Construction
  • Another reason why designers are selecting
    structural steel to work with is that the process
    of construction is more rapid. Almost all of the
    steel components can be acquired in the
    prefabricated state.
  • One can even procure standard shapes and sizes
    that come pre-engineered and ready to install
    from the manufacturer. This simply means that a
    massive project can be assembled within a few
    weeks.
  • Also, having prefabricated material means that
    the time consumption for measuring and cutting
    would be lesser when compared to wood framing.

6
EnvironmentFriendly
  • Moreover, selecting structural steel to build a
    building is also good for the environment. Being
    one of the most recycled materials, an
    approximate of 80 tons of steel are recycled
    every year.
  • Apart from being environment-friendly, the
    original steel is also greener. Steel
    construction fits with joints and airtight seams
    that means there would be less requirement for
    additional insulation.

7
Proficient Workers
  • People working in the structural steel industry
    are specially trained in this domain and all the
    skills, masterful logic, reasoning, and
    mathematics that go with it. Therefore, you can
    ensure nothing but amazing results.
  • Although the requirement of master skill levels
    in math might decrease, however, people would
    have additional proficiency when it comes to
    specific software and computer usage.
  • Once mastered, people would be competent in
    geometry and trigonometry rather than calculating
    or memorizing anything manually.

8
No Drawbacks Whatsoever
  • There wouldnt be any drawbacks of using
    structural steel detailing software. It decreases
    the chance of human error, makes the job more
    accessible, and endorses unified brain-storming.

9
Ability to Take 2D Prints
  • And then, it also provides an option to take a
    print out of the 2D version to give the detailer
    the ability to show mock-up to the client before
    spending complete time and money to create 3D
    rendering. With a steel detailing software,
    tracking changes or editing the initial plan
    would be more comfortable. This way, the
    following feedback would be seamless for both
    creator as well as the client.
