Job Overview

This is an excellent opportunity for someone looking to find a career or for someone with industry experience. At Design Build Structures, we are willing to train the right applicant.

Skills:

+ **Communication:** detailers communicate with engineers, architects and other construction professionals to understand the purpose of their designs and the requirements of their projects.

+ **Organization:** detailers use organizational skills to keep track of their work and the work of their team. They use these skills to ensure that they complete all of their work on time and that they submit accurate and complete documents. Structural steel detailers also use organizational skills to keep track of their files and records. This includes keeping track of the original design files and ensuring that they have the necessary information to recreate the design if necessary.

+ **Attention to detail:** detailers must have excellent attention to detail to ensure their work is accurate and precise. They must be able to read and interpret blueprints and other design documents to ensure they understand the intended design and can accurately represent it in their work. Structural steel detailers also use their attention to detail to ensure they follow all safety regulations and industry standards.

+ **Problem-solving:** detailers use problem-solving skills to identify potential issues with designs and propose solutions. For example, they may identify a design that requires a larger amount of steel than the project has budgeted for. They may then suggest using a different design or changing the design to use less steel.

+ **Computer-aided design (CAD) software:** detailers use computer-aided design software to create and modify structural steel designs. This software allows them to create and modify designs digitally, which can help them visualize the design and make changes more quickly than if they were working with physical models.

Description:

+ Read and interpret architectural and structural building plans.

+ Comply with the requirements of the design drawings and with all industry standards and protocols.

+ Create accurate shop drawings for structural and miscellaneous steel. Complete drawings show material specs, member sizes, required dimensions, welding, bolting, surface preparation, and painting requirements.

+ Create accurate erection drawings. Complete drawings include where and how to erect fabricated steel members.

+ Use and understand 3D modeling software, SDS2, including basic concepts and basic drawing setup and creation.

+ Complete drawings according to schedule requirements by understanding basic job sequencing.

+ Establish a bill of material for each job.

+ Use and understand basic weld types and sizes in various applications.

+ Calculate various basic geometric elements involved in construction.

+ Communicate and assess job conflicts and questions with other construction trades.

+ Document communication of job information including job changes, clarifications, and requirements.

+ Understand basic construction techniques.

+ Understand the fabrication processes, for example cutting, welding, bolting, material ordering, paint and galvanizing requirements, fabrication, and shipping sequences.

Qualifications:

+ Construction/fabrication related knowledge and experience particularly helpful

+ Must know how to read plans and specifications or be able to learn

+ 1-2 years of related industry experience

+ High school diploma or GED

+ Valid drivers license
