The Challenge:

Our biggest hurdle wasn’t just the structural complexity but the ultra-tight construction release deadline. With a compressed steel fabrication schedule, our client needed results quickly, but delays from the design team left us with only a few days to update the model and complete the piece detailing. To make things even more challenging, the client rejected our proposed sequencing and required a “one-shot” delivery, adding significant pressure to the process.

Our Expertise:

Despite the high pressure and short timeline, we leveraged custom automation features within our detailing software, such as auto-connections and drawing cloning, to maximize efficiency. This allowed us to speed up model updates, streamline the creation of piece details, and ensure accuracy. Even with these tools, we faced an intense 36-hour marathon of non-stop work to meet the deadline.

The Result:

In the end, we delivered the project on time, providing fully detailed and error-checked drawings despite the condensed schedule. The successful outcome showcased our ability to handle extreme time constraints without compromising on quality. The wraparound moment plates, facade steel support, and cantilevered balconies were detailed to perfection, reinforcing our reputation for delivering high-quality structural steel detailing under pressure.
