Review Process of Fabrication Drawings and Erection Drawings

[Steel-detailing-services]

In the construction process, basic function of a fabricator is to
provide all necessary shop drawings and construction documents to the
contractor. These drawings are prepared after thorough review of the
design drawings, specifications and bidding documents provided by the
structural engineer.

Fabrication drawings commonly include the following:
# Structural Element Drawings
The drawings for basic structural members, such as web steel joists,
must be sealed, signed and dated by the Structural Engineer

# Erection Drawings
These drawings primarily show the placement of structural members,
connections and components to be supplied by the fabricator. When
these drawings include design by the Structural Engineer, the drawings
shall be sealed, signed and dated by the Structural Engineer.

# Connection Design or Shop Fabrication Drawings
These drawings provided by the fabricator shall give all information
necessary for shop personnel to assemble and fabricate the components.
These drawings shall be sealed, signed and dated when incorporating
design by the Structural Engineer

# Construction Engineering Drawings
These drawings provided by the contractor shall cover load analyses,
temporary bracing and erection sequence. The drawings shall be sealed,
signed and dated by a qualified member.

Drawing submittals should be reviewed for common compliance with the
structural Contract
Documents but generally the review does not include issues such as
checking dimensions and review of the safety measures. The General
Contractor is required to review the submittals before it gets
reviewed by the SER.

Fabricator should review the shop drawings and other submittals in
conformation with the Contract Documents. When required, the shop
drawings should bear the signature and seal of the responsible
Structural Engineer. The Structural Engineer whose seal and signature
appear on the drawings is responsible for the design of the Structural
Members and connections indicated.
