What is Structural Design? Structural Design is an iterative process of applying engineering mechanics and past experience to create a functional, economic, and, most importantly, safe structure for the public to enjoy.

What is a Steel Detailer? The structural drafter is a very important part of the structural design team. Their primary responsibility is to produce accurate working drawings and erection plans. These drawings are used to fabricate the steel in a manufacturing facility or to assemble the steel pieces at the construction site.
