Structural Drafting Central Coast

Hamilton By Design have developed Smart Structures based on the Solidworks 3D modelling platform. Smart Structures offer standard configurations enhanced with relevant steel detailing functionality. Where each member of our team can create detailed 3D models of any steel material and then generate corresponding fabrication and erection information that can be shared with all stakeholders inside and in some case external project participants. The Smart Structures gives team members the opportunity to View Structures 3D models Create Structural Members Create and modify grids Model parts and bolts   Create welds Add loads to a model Create fabricated assemblies of steel parts Create levels of assembly hierarchy Create detailed steel connections Create automatic preset connections to multiple parts Create erection sequences View model information in 4D Mark/number parts automatically The Smart Structures delivers results with Customize drawings and reports ...

At Hamilton By design our Steel Detailing team interpret architectural and structural engineering drawings to gain a thorough working knowledge the overall design intent of a building or structure. With our extensive steel detailing and erection experience we translate information from the propose engineering or architectural design into a clear set of work shop drawings for the purpose of fabrication. The difference between design and detailing is, design is the complete creative process of taking an idea from conception and putting that concept to paper for the purpose of manufacture. Where as detailing is the first step of braking the design into manufacture-able pieces. In general these pieces become manufacture-able and are transported to site for erection. Structural Drafting Central Coast At Hamilton By Design we believe that in order to keep projects running on time and within budget both designers and detailers need the relevant experi...

Structural Design Over the past two months Hamilton By Design have been test driving Buildworks 2012 a Solidworks add in, after extensive testing the team at Hamilton By Design have rated the Builtworks benefits in terms of must haves through to nice to haves when modelling structural steel to produce fabrication shop drawings : BuiltWorks uses embedded SolidWorks and add in modelling tools that facilitate the creation of a 3D parametric model of a structure under design by using SolidWorks Weldment and BuiltWorks Structural members both in Part and Assembly. BuiltWorks has flexible tools for the modelling of member connections including rule definitions engine by setting relations, aligning, cutting, placing connection plates and fasteners. BuiltWorks contains standard connections libraries, easily expanded by new customised solutions. BuiltWorks ensures the direct and seamless bi-directional integration between the SolidWorks graphics environment and SolidWorks Simulati...
