A small senior team, backed by detailers we've worked with for years. From concept and design to the shop-ready fabrication package, to Australian Standards, by engineers who have worked on the tools.
From a sketch on the back of an envelope to the shop-ready fabrication package.
3D models and detailed drawings for beams, columns, bracing, stairs, walkways and platforms. We model first, resolve the connections, then produce the drawing set.
The complete shop-ready package: members and assemblies detailed, marked and listed, so the workshop has fewer questions back to the office.
Equipment, conveyors, attachments, frames and access systems. Where a design needs validating, it goes through analysis before it reaches production.
Stress, load and deflection analysis on new or modified designs. The cheapest place to find a problem is on screen, before steel is cut.
Perforated panels, chutes, enclosures, cladding and custom sheet components. Developed flat patterns as DXF for the laser, with material, thickness and K-factor accounted for.
Access steelwork detailed to AS 1657 — the Australian Standard for fixed platforms, walkways, stairways and ladders. We work to it regularly.
Balustrades, handrails and guarding for buildings and public spaces — connections, fixings and infill panels resolved on the model before anything is cut.
Gantries, supports, walkways, platforms and equipment structures for road and rail, detailed to the head contractor's drawing standards.
Taking an invention from concept through experimental runs to mass production. These are long programmes — typically six months to two years.
Send the scope through Aconex or any file link; we produce a set built to head-contractor expectations, raising RFIs where information is incomplete rather than guessing.
Manufacturing through our established overseas partner, with priority production capacity — from your approved drawings, or from drawings we produce. Won a contract with no production base? We supply drawings and manufacturing; you install.
Manufacturing through our partner facility, from your approved drawings or from drawings we produce. Production is checked by the factory's QC department against our own QA checklist; every job is quoted individually.
Mill test reports (mechanical properties, chemical composition) are supplied. Independent Australian materials certification is arranged where a project requires it — generally public structures under crowd loads, generally not decorative work.
Detailing capacity when your own board is full: you keep the client relationship, we absorb the peak. We work weekends and holidays, and depending on urgency we run nearly around the clock; the hourly rate stays flat, with no per-tonne surprises.
Cutting, welding, priming and crating at the plant where the work is done. We publish no client work and no finished projects.
Hot-dip galvanising of manufactured items.
Cast components in stainless and carbon steel, produced through the same partner that manufactures the fabricated work.
Send the scope and we'll tell you what's actually required.
