Shop drawings, erection drawings and submittals for your structural steel and miscellaneous metals, handled through Heartland Steel and coordinated with our fabrication shop in Woodway, Texas.
Most steel problems in the field start on paper. A missed dimension or an unclear connection in the shop drawings turns into a piece that does not fit when it reaches the site.
When detailing runs through the same company that fabricates your steel, the drawings are reviewed with the shop in mind. Questions get answered before steel is cut, and you have one company accountable for both.
Steel detailing is the process of turning the engineer's and architect's design drawings into shop drawings and erection drawings. Shop drawings show how each piece is fabricated, and erection drawings show where each piece goes and how it connects in the field.
The drawings and documents your team needs to review, approve and build the steel package.
Piece drawings for beams, columns, braces and assemblies, showing how each member is cut, drilled and welded.
Plans and elevations that show where every piece goes, with piece marks that match the steel on the truck.
Drawing packages submitted to your team, the architect and the engineer for review and approval.
Questions raised early and drawings revised when the design changes, so the shop builds the current version.
Connection design when the project calls for it, plus the material and bolt lists that drive purchasing, fabrication and erection.
Approved drawings go straight to our shop in Woodway, where the steel is built to match.

Your team, architect and engineer review them.
Approved drawings go to fabrication.
Detailing comes with our steel packages for general contractors across these building types.
Detailing is the first step of the steel package.
Steel detailing turns the engineer's and architect's design drawings into shop drawings and erection drawings. Shop drawings tell the fabricator how to build each piece, and erection drawings show where each piece goes on site.
Shop drawings show how each individual piece of steel is cut, drilled and welded in the shop. Erection drawings show the full layout of the structure, with piece marks that tell the field crew where each member goes.
Yes. Detailing is handled through Heartland Steel as part of our turnkey packages, and it can be included with fabrication scopes so drawings and fabrication stay under one contract.
Yes. We fabricate from approved shop drawings, whether they come through Heartland Steel or from a detailer already on your project.
Yes. Connection design comes with detailing through Heartland Steel when the project specifications call for it, so connections are designed, drawn and fabricated as one coordinated package.
Shop drawings are submitted to the general contractor, who typically routes them to the architect and engineer of record for review. Fabrication starts once the drawings are approved.
