Fabrication Drawings: Everything Steel Fabricators and Metalworkers Need to Know

Steel fabricators and metalwork contractors know that one small error in a drawing can cost thousands in rework and delays. That’s why detailed fabrication drawings are non-negotiable on every quality project.

SHOP DRAFT specialises in shop-ready fabrication drawings for structural steel, miscellaneous metalwork, sheet metal and mechanical components. Our packages include full cutting lists, weld details, bolt schedules, bend allowances, K-factors and assembly marks — all prepared to the latest Australian Standards (AS4100, AS1554, AS1657 and AS1100).

We work from engineer’s GA drawings, line diagrams or even site sketches and can incorporate our own on-site measuring service when existing plans are outdated. Every drawing is delivered in PDF and native DWG/DXF formats, ready for your CNC machines or workshop floor.

Sydney and Greater NSW fabricators choose SHOP DRAFT because we deliver fast (1–3 days for simple items, 5–10 days for medium packages) and because our drawings are submitted in the exact format engineers expect, making the approval process quick and painless.
