Contact Us

At Techture, we understand the importance of accurate shop & fabrication drawings in the success of your construction project & streamlining project execution. Whether you're working on a residential, commercial, industrial, institutional, retail, or infrastructure project, our experienced team is here to support you. This makes us your go-to solution for all your shop drawing needs. Utilizing Autodesk Revit and cutting-edge BIM software, our skilled professionals create clash-coordinated drawings with the necessary Level of Detail (LOD). This approach supports every stage of development, from fabrication and installation to facility management.

Our accurate services add value to the project in the following ways:

Provides fabricators with all the information essential for assembling and fabricating the components.

Ensure clear communication between the architect or designer, the client, and the fabricator.

This process helps reduce or even eliminate the need for rework by spotting and addressing issues through clash detection. It’s important to give the fabricator enough detailed information to guarantee that all elements are structurally sound and meet the required safety, quality, and project standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Shop Drawings?

Shop drawings, vital for contractors and fabricators, interpret design intent and guide manufacturing and installation. Generated post-contract signing, these detailed documents include component identification, interference details, and coordinates for precise site placement. They ensure adherence to industry standards and codes. Shop drawings cover diverse elements from beams to equipment, offering clarity through section views and notes on changes. Each subcontractor creates their set, contributing to seamless coordination. Key details, like project information and fabrication standards, are presented in a title block. These documents, more detailed than Issued for Construction (IFC) drawings, play a pivotal role in achieving accurate construction outcomes.

What are shop drawings used for?

Shop Drawing Services consist of detailed drawings created by contractors or fabricators showing how specific components will be manufactured and installed. These drawings provide a clear visual representation of design intent, which helps in the construction process.

What is included in shop drawing services?

Shop Drawing Services encompass detailed, customized drawings created by contractors or fabricators, illustrating how specific components will be manufactured and installed. These drawings provide a clear visual representation of design intent, materials, and dimensions, aiding in the construction process.

What software do you use for creating shop drawings?

At Techture, we use all the compatible and industry-specific softwares like Autodesk AutoCad & Revit. Our team's strong skill in these software makes sure that the drawings are coordinated and accurate.

What is the difference between shop drawings and design drawings?

The main difference between Shop drawings and design drawings is that design drawings provide an overall layout of the project whereas shop drawings provide details and accurate plans for fabrication and installation. Shop drawings focus more on the technical front which is essential for accurate construction and execution.

Why are Shop Drawings important?

Shop drawings are important for several reasons:

  • Detail and Specifics: Shop drawings provide in-depth details about the fabrication, assembly, and installation of components.
  • Coordination Tool: They aid in coordinating different trades and identifying potential clashes early on.
  • Verification of Intent: Shop drawings verify that the contractor's interpretation aligns with the design intent.
  • Communication Aid: Act as a visual communication tool among various stakeholders in the construction process.
  • Guidance for Fabrication: Contractors use shop drawings as a guide for off-site fabrication, ensuring accuracy and efficiency during installation.
Do Shop Drawings use 3D models?

Yes, shop drawings do use 3D models as a foundation, offering several advantages:

  • Increased Accuracy: 3D models provide a more precise and comprehensive representation of components, minimizing errors and misinterpretations in traditional 2D drawings.
  • Improved Efficiency: Extracting shop drawings from 3D models eliminates the need for manual drafting, saving time and reducing the risk of human error.
  • Enhanced Visualization: 3D models offer a clearer understanding of component geometry, assembly sequences, and potential conflicts, leading to smoother fabrication and installation.
  • Streamlined Collaboration: Shared 3D models facilitate communication and collaboration between designers, manufacturers, and construction teams, ensuring everyone is working from the same information.
  • Data Integration: The rich data embedded in 3D models can be directly used to generate material estimates, production schedules, and other necessary documents, streamlining the workflow.
Are Shop Drawing processes fast?

The speed of shop drawing processes can vary depending on several factors, including the complexity of the project, the level of detail required, the efficiency of communication among stakeholders, and the tools and technologies used. In some cases, shop drawing processes can be relatively fast, especially with the aid of advanced software and collaborative platforms. However, in complex projects or situations where coordination challenges arise, the process may take more time to ensure accuracy and adherence to design specifications. Efficient communication and collaboration among project participants are key factors in expediting the shop drawing process.

Do Shop Drawings help with off-site construction?

Yes, shop drawings play a crucial role in off-site construction. They provide detailed information about how components or modules should be fabricated, assembled, and installed. For off-site or prefabrication processes, these drawings serve as a guide for manufacturers or fabricators, ensuring that the constructed elements meet design specifications. The detailed information in shop drawings enhances efficiency in off-site construction by providing clear instructions for the assembly and production of components before they are transported to the construction site. This can lead to time and cost savings during the overall construction process.

What's the BIM advantage in Shop Drawings?

The use of BIM in shop drawings offers several advantages:

  • Integrated Data: BIM integrates comprehensive data into 3D models for accurate shop drawings.
  • Enhanced Coordination: Centralized BIM models help detect and resolve clashes, improving coordination among trades.
  • Automatic Updates: Changes in the BIM model automatically update associated shop drawings, ensuring real-time accuracy.
  • Visual Aid: BIM's 3D representation enhances visualization, aiding in better communication of complex details.
  • Efficient Quantities: BIM generates accurate quantities and specifications directly from the model, reducing manual errors in shop drawings.
