Shop Drawing involves people of different disciplines right from structural engineer, architect to fabricators, steel detailers as well as erection team. Every participant holds a different view for the uses of shop drawing and shares the liabilities in the process. The shop drawing review procedure generally involves the examination of the participants performing different actions.
The fabricator observes closely each and every action related to the steel work for deciding further proceeding with shop drawings. The EOR or the architect might approve, ask for resubmission and revision or totally reject the drawings after getting it reviewed.
Challenges while preparing the prevision drawings
Major challenges during the process of preparing precision drawing:
• Structural member is missing in the plan or the elevation
• Incomplete documents of the contract
• Particular details of the project are not furnished
• Structural drawing is not matched with the architectural or mechanical drawings
• Specifications and design drawing do not agree
• Structural dimensions don’t close in drawings
• Connection or sequencing needs are not fulfilled
• Noncompliance with the codes of the industry for developing the drawings
Recommendations for enhancing the process of structural drawing
• Complete documents of contract are needed
• Architects and engineers should know about the standards of the industry
• Specs should be supplied with bid drawings
• Bid drawing should be matched with design drawing
• Complete details have to be offered
• The magnitude and position of the uncommon loads have to be supplied to the joist provider
• EOR should comply as well as use AISC Coding as and when required
