Testimonial
Tactical Group engaged Steelcad Drafting on behalf of Woolworth’s to perform the steel detailing services for two large co-located automated warehouse distribution centres in Western Sydney. The two buildings are in excess of 5000t combined, each with 40 metre plus highbays, linked by two suspended airbridges for pedestrian access and conveyor system interconnectivity between the two buildings, and one building includes a 55m clear span trussed roof each with pre-cambers. To add further complexity to the detailing, when the second building was awarded the steel fabrication was awarded to an overseas fabricator.
The client representative had never performed the steel detailing prior to engaging the D&C Contractor, so initially there was some concern, however that quickly disappeared in the early stages of Steelcad’s engagement when the client could see the value in the early engagement. This early appointment allowed the steel detailing to be well advanced by the time the D&C Contractor was appointed, gaining valuable time for the project’s already compressed schedule, particularly allowing a welded beams order and steel fabrication to commence immediately after D&C contract award.
Steelcad modelled the steel shop drawings, and their model was incorporated into the Revit model assisting with the fast tracking of the structural design development and clash detection between architectural and structural disciplines. Steelcad quickly became a highly valuable member of the design team, driving the design development through design meetings and Revit model clash detection sessions. Their timely communications and design clarifications helped the design process immeasurably, and the accuracy and high standard of their shop drawings was commented upon by all involved including the D&C contractor, steel fabricators, and riggers on both Projects with effectively no reworks required.
We speak on behalf of the whole project team when we say we would repeat this process again, and undoubtedly will do in the future, without any hesitation at all.
