Angle Detailing, Inc.
Our company employs 2 estimators, 6 project managers, 13 detailers, 3-checkers and 2 document control staff. We obtain work from local fabricators and out of state fabricators. Most of our work comes from the Pacific-Northwest, and the South-West.
Our emphasis is not on the size of the project. We can manage seismic upgrades, renovations projects, stairs, handrail, etc... Our competent and courteous project management staff will help you to get through projects large or small given design drawings with complete information or not.
Beyond offering detailing and drafting services, we provide consulting and design-assistance services to Fabricators, General Contractors, Architects and Engineers for complex projects. These services range from pre-bid meetings geared towards cost savings and design simplification, to full 3D modeling and Connections Design for design-build projects. We also hire Project Engineers as required when agreed beforehand between ADI and the Fabricator and/or General Contractor.
Our Detailing staff manages -
*Conventional Steel structures: Industrial buildings, Commercial structures, High-Rises, Schools.
*Non-Conventional structures: FOGA Art Museums, and Santiago Calatrava Art Museum.
*Pre-Cast Structures: Car Dealerships, Schools, Gyms.
*Small Artistic Projects: Glass Sculptures and Steel Sculptures.
*Industrial small projects: Sink stations, Electrical Panels.
*Even Smaller Projects: Emergency Kit bag and Fuse Case
Many of the projects that we work on require 3D support and much interaction with the Architects and Engineers on the projects due to schedule and design build issues.
One of our key strengths is our ability to work directly with the Architects and Engineers on these complex projects so schedule impact is minimized, and quality is the focus. In the big picture saving the Fabricator money.
ADI employs the latest in computer, printing, and communications technologies to quickly process incoming designs and outgoing drawing packages. These technologies allow us the flexibility to accept from, and provide to our customers virtually any form of electronic models or hard-copy drawings. (e.g.: 3dm, .tif, .pdf, .plt, .dwf, .dwg etc.). This allows us to save you a day of waiting for a Fed-X delivery of your drawings (not to mention the cost of sending & printing drawings), you can receive drawings within hours or minutes of us finishing them. We know that TIME IS MONEY.
We currently have 7 SDS/2 Automated Steel Detailing stations (we only utilize 3 of these stations) in addition to our main software which is AutoCAD 2008 & 2000 stations.
We maintain a full-time programmer to customize both the SDS/2 and AutoCAD systems to meet the demands of structural steel detailing and to constantly improve efficiency and quality. In addition to SDS/2 and AutoCAD, we also use Rhino, and other 3D solid modeling software packages capable of handling the most complex of projects.
