Structural Steel Detailing by Gore Steel Detailing

Structural steel detailing is the primary focus of the Gore Steel Detailing team. We create a steel package which combines the Architect’s design with the engineer’s analysis and specifications. The engineer shows us the locations of steel members that we display on our erection sheets. Architectural details are studied to insure our design will mesh with the entire building process.

Structural Steel Detailing of Steel Shapes

Structural Steel is manufactured in a wide variety of shapes. From this raw stock of profiles the design palette of the structural engineer is born. Our team will create the shop drawings which transform a newly delivered pile of angle, beams, channel and tubing into a steel package ready for paint and shipping. Hollow Structural Sections or HSS compose some of the most dramatic steel structures.

Square and rectangular tubing is a universal building component which looks modern and encourages it to be exposed for the public’s appreciation. Architects have employed tubing to achieve curtain walls of glass with beautiful clean posts and beams, seamlessly welded.

Detailing of Round and Elliptical Sections

Pipe available in a multitude of diameters can inspire a range of feeling for the occupants of structures it graces. Visitors of buildings that use pipe as exposed columns and cross members have a feeling of space technology. Pipe railings flow down stairs and around corners. Nautical themes can be created with decks and catwalks with ocean liner style rail. The Gore Steel team is available for consultation on a range of pipe component details to compliment your architectural project.

Stressed fabric technology enables giant tents to be constructed with structural canvas skins. Pipe frameworks act as tent poles creates open corridors with trussed roofs. Steel detailing drawings outline the complex copes cut on the ends of members simplifying cutting layout for shop sawyers.

Structural Steel Detailing of Wide Flange Beams

Beams are the workhorses of structural steel and compose a large percentage of our detailing sheets on typical buildings. Wide flange and H sections span large distances acting as girders carrying beams and joists in commercial settings. Our drawings enable shops to fabricate more weight than before with our shop tailored beam sheets. Keep bulky beams construction efficient so material spends a minimum time on your beam line and can be sent out with an invoice.

Steel Channel Detailing

Channel comes in regular and junior weights and is the material most typically used for stair stringers. It is beautiful exposed and works with treads of all sizes. Long runs can be often fabricated in the shop and sent on semi-trailers to saves days of onsite erection. Ledgers, rafters and headers are created from this structural steel shape. Detailing of structural steel channel is also common in the industrial arena as a crucial building block in manufacturing plant design.

Structural Steel Angle

Angle iron is often used right from the beginning of projects with its use as concrete reinforcing lintels and ledger for joists. Steel angle can be cut to length, punched and labeled from our ledger sheets by fabricators to get it on the wall. Our Structural Steel Detailers will provide the information you need to start a steel project and will help communicate with your contractors.

Steel Plate Detailing and Development Design

Plate and bar shapes enable the structural steel designer to customize components. The Gore Steel Team will outline your plate shapes. Complicated designs can be cut and formed to desired specifications. Our 3-d modeling ability is especially important in the design of plate shapes. Contact the Gore Steel Team to manage your steel shapes in the future from materials lists to inspection we will be there for your benefit.
