Why Melbourne teams use SolidCAD
A local shop drawing team in south-east Melbourne.
Melbourne builders and fabricators work with drafters in the same time zone who know Australian project documentation. We work in Tekla, AutoCAD, Revit and SolidWorks, agree the drawing list and review milestones before drafting starts, and keep revisions clearly identified so your team can tell working drafts from approved sets.
How a Melbourne shop drawing job runs
Send your approved drawings and scope, and we confirm the deliverables and programme in a quotation. We then draft the package, issue it for your review, close out comments and deliver the fabrication or installation issue in the formats you need, such as DWG and PDF.
See examples of our work, including gate shop drawings and a steel roof detailing package, or read more about our shop drawing services across Australia.
