Drafting Standards Legacy Built

 Steel Details was born in 2010 when founder Lance Benson, a pioneering steel drafting engineer, identified critical gaps in steel detailing services. Frustrated by inconsistent structural layouts and subpar fabrication drawings in the industry, he launched our firm to champion precision steel detailing, technical steel solutions, detail methods, structural plans, drafting standards, metal layouts, and documentation process. Our early days focused on small-scale steel drafting projects for local fabricators, quickly earning a reputation for fabrication-ready documentation that slashed production errors by 25%.

By 2013, Steel Details expanded its steel detailing capabilities, investing in cutting-edge CAD software to revolutionize structural layouts and fabrication drawings. We adhered rigorously to international drafting standards, integrating advanced detail methods for technical steel challenges. This period saw us secure contracts for major structural plans in commercial buildings, where our metal layouts and streamlined documentation process proved invaluable. Client testimonials poured in, praising our steel drafting accuracy.

In 2017, we hit a milestone: scaling to a 30-person team of steel detailing experts, all certified in technical steel practices. We pioneered hybrid 2D/3D steel drafting workflows, enhancing fabrication drawings and fabrication-ready documentation for complex projects like bridges and stadiums. Our commitment to drafting standards ensured structural layouts met seismic and load-bearing requirements flawlessly. Steel Details became synonymous with reliable detail methods and efficient metal layouts.
