Technical Capabilities
Quality-Controlled Engineering Drawing & Model Delivery
A drawing or model package is only useful when its scope, source information, revision history and checking responsibilities are understood. This is how each package is set up, checked and handed over.
What Checking Means Here
Our agreed drawing and model review may include checking references, dimensions, member identification, drawing-to-model consistency, material schedules, document numbers and revisions. Where a second-person check or independent technical review is contractually required, the assignment is resourced and planned for it. Engineering design verification or statutory approval is provided only through qualified professionals under a separately established scope.
- Included
Self-Check / Production Checking
Whether the drafting or detailing output agrees with the approved input, dimensions, references, registers and scope. The extent depends on the agreed procedure.
- Where resourced and agreed
Peer / Senior Checking
A second-person review, only where it is resourced and part of the accepted procedure for the package.
- Where included in scope
Interdisciplinary Model Review
A geometric or information-interface check against supplied reference models. Not a guarantee of clash-free construction.
- Not included
Design Verification / Independent Certification
Engineering analysis and professional assessment, separate from drawing checking and provided only under a separately established scope.
- Client / contract role
Client Acceptance
An agreed submission status under the contract, not automatic legal approval or fitness for construction.
- Requires verified source
As-Built Verification
The actual final field condition needs a reliable, authorised source, not inference from the last construction drawing.
Technical Delivery Sequence
Seven stages, scaled to the size of the package and the project's own procedures. The scope of each check and the authority to accept engineering changes are defined by the project.
- 01
Scope & Deliverable Definition
Output list, models, drawing types, package boundaries, interfaces, submission stages, design authority and exclusions confirmed.
- 02
Approved Technical Inputs & Queries
Source drawings and models, issue status, specifications, applicable codes and editions and missing engineering decisions recorded; RFIs and technical queries raised for incomplete or contradictory data.
- 03
Production Setup & Coordination
Grids, model coordinates, templates, layer and part-mark conventions, fabrication preferences, reference models and file versions agreed.
- 04
Drafting, Modelling & Detailing
The commissioned output prepared from accepted source material, keeping related drawings, schedules and models linked as required.
- 05
Defined Production Checks
Scope-specific completeness, dimensions, references, revision tags, model-to-drawing consistency and material reconciliation checked under the agreed procedure.
- 06
Client Review & Technical Changes
Submitted for the designated review; returned comments logged, approval sought for engineering changes, and contracted revisions distinguished from scope changes.
- 07
Controlled Issue & Handover
Agreed native, PDF, model and schedule files issued with registers and transmittal records. As-built updates only from verified final information, where included.
Records and Handover
Depending on the size of the package and your document control procedure, the following records can be set up and handed over with the deliverables.
- Input Register
- Technical Query (RFI) Log
- Drawing and Deliverable Register
- Drawing Check Record
- Mark-Up and Comment Log
- Transmittals
- Final Issue Register
- MTO Reconciliation
Input / Output Traceability
An example of the records a steel fabrication package can carry, so every output can be traced back to the input revision it came from. The records are defined by contract.
Inputs recorded
- Input drawing revision
- D-04
- Connection information
- Approved connection details
- Coordinate basis
- Agreed drawing and model coordinate scheme
Outputs recorded
- Drawing sheet list
- Sheet numbers and member marks
- Steel quantities
- Source revision recorded on the schedule
- Client review
- Review status per sheet
- Issue record
- Transmittal ID
Illustrative workflow only. It does not represent existing internal software or automation.
Responsibility
Design Approval Stays With the Engineer
Our deliverables are produced from approved design information and checked within the agreed production scope. They are not an engineering approval, and they do not replace review by your responsible engineer or approvals by authorities and certifying bodies.
Codes & Standards- Comments returned in writing and closed out before re-issue
- Every revision identified with its description
- Assumptions shown on drawings for your verification
- No quality-management certification is claimed
Common Questions
How changes, technical queries, checking and close-out are handled on a package.
What happens when an approved design drawing changes?
The effect on the model, shop sheets, quantities and document revisions is assessed and incorporated according to the contracted revision process.
Can you check the structural adequacy of an existing design?
Only under a separate, qualified design-verification scope. Ordinary production checking is a different activity.
How are technical questions communicated?
Missing information, conflicting dimensions and interface issues are recorded and submitted as clear technical queries or RFIs to the designated client engineer.
What do you provide at close-out?
The contract-defined native formats, PDFs, models, material reports, issue registers and supporting files.
Need a package checkedand handed over properly?
Tell us your document control requirements and review cycle. We will set the package up around them.
