Every detailing error costs you twice: once in the shop, again on site. My job is to make sure you never pay either bill. I'm a Structural Engineer and Tekla Steel Detailer with 5+ years and 200+ completed projects across the USA, Australia . Fabricators and contractors hire me when drawings need to be right the first time — every bolt, plate, weld, and cleat modeled to fabrication tolerances and fully compliant with AISC, AS/NZS, standards. WHAT I DELIVER • Steel detailing and 3D modeling in Tekla Structures • Shop, assembly, and single-part drawings (DXF, DWG, PDF — CNC-ready) • Erection drawings and steel connection design (bolted & welded) • Material take-offs (MTO) and bill of materials (BOM) • Clash detection and BIM coordination • Revit to Tekla conversion (full BIM integration) I handle everything from stair, handrail, and mezzanine packages to complete warehouse and multi-storey structural steel frames — residential, commercial, and industrial. WHY FABRICATORS REHIRE ME • 100% Job Success Score, consistent 5-star feedback • I think like a fabricator, not just a modeler — workflows, tolerances, and erection sequence are built into every drawing • Tight deadlines met without chasing, with clear daily communication "I have now worked with Abdullah three times on AU residential-based steel detailing projects... he consistently delivers within tight timelines." — Repeat AU client READY TO START? Send your design drawings (PDF, DWG, or Revit/IFC) and within a few hours you'll have a clear scope, timeline, and fixed quote. No surprises — on price or on site.
