Frequently asked questions
Shop Drawings:
your questions answered.
What is the difference between design drawings and shop drawings?
Design drawings communicate the overall engineering or architectural intent. Shop drawings develop the component, fabrication, coordination and installation details needed to carry that intent into practice.
Which shop drawings does SolidCAD provide?
SolidCAD provides structural steel shop drawings and MEP shop drawing services, including fabrication details, coordinated layouts and installation documentation.
Are shop drawings the same as engineering approval?
No. Shop drawings document the supplied design for fabrication or installation. Engineering approvals and any design decisions must be reviewed by the responsible project professionals.
What do you need to prepare shop drawings?
Start with the approved design drawings, specifications, scope and drawing standards. Current revisions and coordination comments help the team prepare an accurate drawing set.
