Steel Framing Models

Steel framing modeled for coordination, documentation and field clarity.

Skyline Design Group develops coordinated steel framing models that organize primary and secondary members, interfaces, openings and drawing information around the way the project will actually be reviewed and built.

System overview

Model the structure around the decisions the team needs to make.

From columns and girders to joists, braces, trusses and edge framing, the model becomes a controlled source for framing plans, sections, schedules, coordination views and issue communication.

Primary objective

Make structural information easier to locate, review, coordinate and communicate.

Model coverage

What can be included in a steel framing models scope.

Scope is aligned to the project milestone, required documentation, coordination responsibilities and the information available from the design team.

BIM content by project use
01

Columns, beams and girders

02

Braces, trusses and joists

03

Deck edges and openings

04

Stairs and miscellaneous steel interfaces

05

Equipment and secondary supports

06

Connection-zone coordination

Coordination

Structural geometry is useful when surrounding disciplines can act on it.

Skyline uses views, filters and issue-focused documentation to make critical interfaces visible to the teams responsible for resolving them.

Field structural coordination
Federated review

Resolve the interface before it becomes a field decision.

1
Interface
MEP penetrations through beam zones
2
Interface
Architectural edges, cores and stairs
3
Interface
Facade and edge-of-slab conditions
4
Interface
Joist, deck and equipment support zones
Typical deliverables

One structural source. Multiple coordinated outputs.

The exact package is defined during scoping, but the structural model can support coordinated drawings, review views and project data without rebuilding the same information in disconnected places.

Output 01

3D steel framing model

Output 02

Floor and roof framing plans

Output 03

Column and bracing layouts

Output 04

Sections and elevations

Output 05

Member schedules and model data

Output 06

Coordination and clash viewpoints

Production workflow

A controlled path from inputs to model issue.

The workflow keeps model content, drawing outputs, review comments and release status connected to a clear sequence.

01

Input audit

Review source files, levels, grids, standards, milestones and known information gaps.

02

Model build

Develop the structural system around agreed geometry, information and project uses.

03

Coordination + QA

Review interfaces, openings, views, tags, warnings and model-to-sheet consistency.

04

Controlled issue

Package approved models, drawings and exchange files with clear issue status.
