OUR CAPABILITIES
Featured Projects
Here are a few projects done by ASD:
Services Provided
Steel Detailing
Atlas Steel Detailing (ASD) offers comprehensive solutions for the steel detailing needs of a diverse clientele, including fabricators, contractors, designers, and structural engineers. As a leading steel detailing company, we have the technical expertise and manpower to handle up to 5,000 tons of steel detailing per month. For nearly a decade, we have provided impeccable steel detailing services by strictly adhering to international industry standards.Our steel detailers are proficient in the latest software versions, including Tekla Structures, Autodesk Revit, and AutoCAD. For complex projects, they develop unique solutions that help engineers manage designs effectively and assist fabricators in the manufacturing process.View Details
BIM Modelling
We have always focused on delivering BIM models based on the unique requirement of our clients.The Architectural BIM services we offer include:
- Developing BIM models from sketches
- BIM Documentation
- BIM Coordination & Clash Detection
- BIM Models for Construction scheduling (4D) & Cost Scheduling (5D)
- As-Built Drawings
BIM Coordination
BIM Coordination is a process of Building Information Modelling that facilitates the collaboration between MEP (Mechanical, electrical, and plumbing systems) engineering, structural engineering and architectural plans.There are several benefits that BIM Coordination provides, such as:
- easier location of design errors that would cost a lot of money to fix in the final project state,
- maximized utilization of the building space,
- clash detection,
- real-time construction scheduling,
- easier collaboration between engineers, architects, contractors & multiple engineers can work on a unified model that would reflect changes from every one of them
Pre-construction Modelling
Pre-construction planning can help you bridge the gap between design, engineering, and fabrication. Utilizing collaborative techniques like early engagement, design development, design secondments, and integrated design detailing, Atlas Detailing ensures that steelwork can be easily fabricated and erected for cost and scheduling certainty.By undertaking this type of work early on, the steelwork can be assessed and confirmed during design rather than construction. Atlas Detailing can pinpoint cost-effective solutions that may not be feasible once construction commences.
Pre-construction planning helps eradicate the value engineering that is so typical of Design-Bid-Build projects. It helps keep your project on time and within budget, without the aesthetic, size, or functionality compromises that are a necessary evil of the value engineering process.View Details
Connection Design
Atlas Detailing has extensive experience working with steel fabricators to provide connections that are easy to build, erect, and detail. The design team at Atlas Detailing provides precise and efficient connection designs and analysis services to study and evaluate the design of building structures under different loading conditions.Atlas Detailing has a team of structural connection design engineers who can provide high-quality and cost-effective connections with calculation and stamping. We make sure that detailers have the sketches they require, based on US standards (AISC, AWS, ASCE, IBC, etc.).View Details
Virtual Design and Construction
VDC facilitates simulating the complexities of the construction project delivery, understanding the pitfalls the project teams are likely to encounter, analyzing them, and addressing them in a virtual world before any real-world construction work ever takes place.Our VDC process is:
- product visualization: With the help of product visualization tools such as AutoCAD, and Revit, a 3D model of how the structure would look after construction is finished is developed to create a common understanding amongst the project participants.
- Product Modelling and Analyzing: The developed 3D model of the building is analyzed to understand how the building will be constructed over time. 4D visualization tools such as CommonPoint Project 4D and NavisWorks Timeline are utilized in this phase.
- Online Collaboration: This phase includes the collaboration with project teams that may be situated in different parts of the globe using a shared product model.
