Pre-Construction Detailing

We provide our Pre-Construction Detailing service through working collaboratively with Design Teams and Main Contractors earlier in the life-cycle of the project. This involves developing the structural steel model in conjunction with the Design Team, identifying design clashes and providing solutions. 

The benefits of engaging ACS to provide this Pre-Construction Detailing service are;

• Early detection of design issues, reducing RFI’s and eliminating late design changes during fabrication.
• Reduction in the lead-in delivery time of steel to site by completing steel detailing earlier in the process.
• Accurate pricing of steelwork by having detailing drawings and material reports available at tender stage.
• Allows the steel fabricator to order material and start fabrication as soon as the contract is awarded.
