The challenge

The client needed shop-ready drawings for a confined-space underground application with strict clearance envelopes around existing infrastructure. The existing concept drawings lacked the detail needed for fabrication and didn't reference current Australian Standards.

Our approach

We rebuilt the design in a parametric SolidWorks assembly to verify clearances, then generated GA drawings, BOM tables, individual part drawings, weld symbols, surface finishes and weldment cut lists. All annotation conforms to AS/NZS 1100 part 101 and 201.

Outcome

Fabricator received a complete drawing package zero clarification requests. Installation completed without rework, project commissioned 2 weeks ahead of schedule.
