Design & Shop Detailing Combined
In addition to our standalone structural engineering and shop detailing services, we offer a combined service that can streamline the design and documentation process. The advantages of our combined structural engineering design and shop detailing service include:
- Design and detailing of a structure can proceed in parallel.
- Baigents can prepare workshop detail drawings directly from the engineering computations, using marking plans to show the overall extent of the structure and minimal structural details.
- Significant time savings are achieved because the workshop detailing can begin prior to the finalisation of construction issue engineering drawings.
- One organisation is responsible for the entire preparation of documentation. The possibility of detailing problems is significantly reduced.
- Changes in the engineering design are easily and quickly incorporated into the workshop detail drawings. The interface between separate engineering and detailing organisations is eliminated.
- Interaction between our design engineers and our detailers occurs on a regular basis and ensures that the steelwork is constantly reviewed to provide the most cost efficient steelwork in terms of simplification of fabrication and ease of erection.
- Our clients achieve cheaper prices for the steelwork when the fabricator is presented with clear shop drawings showing accurate tonnages.
- A number of fabricators can be used to expedite the fabrication work.
