Review project information
Read the supplied engineering drawings, specifications and revision history.
WORKING PROCESS
Good detailing starts before modelling.
A clear scope, a traceable RFI process and practical internal checks keep the model and its deliverables connected to the project information.
Confirm scope and deliverables
Agree the steelwork included, drawing requirements, file formats and programme.
Identify missing or conflicting information
Check dimensions, levels, member references and interfaces before assumptions become modelled details.
Raise RFIs
Record focused questions and track responses from the responsible project team.
Build and coordinate the Tekla model
Develop the model against the agreed information and coordinate member geometry and interfaces.
Review fabrication and erection practicality
Examine access, orientation, clashes and the practical sequence of assembly.
Produce drawings and reports
Prepare agreed fabrication documentation, erection information and material reports.
Complete internal checks
Review the model, drawing clarity, dimensions, marks and issue consistency.
Issue deliverables and manage revisions
Issue the agreed package and maintain clear revision records as project information changes.
Questions made visible.
Revisions kept clear.
Information gaps are recorded and raised with the responsible team. Drawing production follows the agreed requirements and current responses.
At each issue, model references, drawing marks and revisions need to tell the same story. Internal checks support that consistency before delivery.
