Do you do structural steel takeoffs and tonnage calculations?
Yes, we do complete structural steel takeoffs including tonnage calculations for beams, columns, bracing and connections. We calculate weights for all steel members using standard AISC sections and provide material lists. Our takeoffs help you order the right amount of steel and avoid costly material shortages or overages on your projects.
Can you estimate welding and connection details?
Yes. We estimate connection details including bolted and welded connections with all required hardware. We calculate weld lengths, bolt quantities and shop labor hours for each connection type. Our estimates include costs for CWB certified welding procedures and Canadian welding standards compliance.
What about shop drawings and steel detailing costs?
Our estimate includes all steel detailing requirements, including shop drawings, erection drawings, and connection details. Our estimates include drafting hours, engineering time and approval cycles. We also estimate costs for steel detailing software, plot reproduction and revision cycles based on project complexity.
Do you do fabrication and erection estimates?
Yes, we do separate estimates for shop fabrication and field erection work. Fabrication estimates include cutting, drilling, welding and finishing operations. Erection estimates include crane time, field welding, bolting crews and safety requirements. This way you can bid what you actually do.
Can you estimate different steel grades and specifications?
We estimate all structural steel grades, including A36, A572 Grade 50, A992, and specialty steels like weathering steel. Our estimates include current pricing for different steel grades and sizes. We also provide additional costs for material certifications, mill test reports and special chemistry requirements.
Why should steel contractors outsource their estimating to us?
As you know, as a steel contractor, steel estimating requires detailed knowledge of steel sections, connection design, welding procedures, and current market pricing. We do the steel takeoffs while you do the fabrication and erection. Our estimates help you bid competitively and maintain your profit margins on steel projects.
