Structural Steel BIM Detailer: Fabrication- Drawings

About The Role — Covington, GA

Step into a role where precision meets productivity. As our Structural Steel BIM Detailer, you’ll transform design intent into constructible reality—producing shop-ready deliverables and coordinating with every stakeholder who touches the steel. Your work keeps projects moving with clarity, accuracy, and speed.

You start by reviewing architectural and structural plans, aligning connection details with project specifications. You open your Tekla/SDS2 model or AutoCAD as needed, refine member geometry, verify connections, and generate fabrication deliverables.

By midday, you’re partnering with engineers and project managers to resolve design questions, then syncing with the shop to address production nuances. Before wrap-up, you issue updated drawings, manage revision logs, and prep BOMs, cut lists, and CNC files for fabrication.

• Produce precise shop and fabrication drawings for all structural steel components.
• Interpret architectural/engineering plans to create accurate, buildable detailing.
• Model and draft using CAD and BIM tools (Tekla, SDS2, AutoCAD or similar).
• Coordinate with structural engineers on connection design reviews and adjustments.
• Generate and manage Bills of Material, cut lists, and CNC fabrication outputs.
• Collaborate with project managers and fabrication teams to resolve design and production issues.
• Participate in project and BIM coordination meetings, as well as model reviews.
• Maintain disciplined revision control and documentation across the project lifecycle.
• Ensure compliance with AISC standards, OSHA requirements, and project specifications.

• Proven background as a structural steel detailer or closely related role.
• Proficiency with CAD/BIM platforms (e.g., Tekla, SDS2, AutoCAD, or comparable tools).
• Solid understanding of steel design, shop fabrication workflows, and steel erection sequencing.
• Impeccable accuracy and the ability to deliver under tight deadlines.
• Clear communication skills and a collaborative mindset.
• Associate’s degree in Drafting, Engineering Technology, or related discipline preferred.
• Knowledge of structural steel codes/standards and industry best practices.
• Experience checking or reviewing other detailers’ work is a plus.

If turning complex drawings into fabrication-ready packages sounds like your craft, we’d love to meet you in Covington, GA.
