Paradigm’s Structural Detailing team has been in operation since 2009. In the earlier years this team was assisting the structural design team for preparation of general arrangement drawings and fabrication drawings (Workshop drawings) as and when needed by the design department. We were then using the software, STRUCAD. Now the team exclusively details using the software, TEKLA( Previously XSTEEL).

Since 2012, the team have been taking up Steel Detailing Services from external clients. The team now has a dedicated strength of Ten(10) members, including Checkers, CAD Engineers, Drafters and Project Managers. In case of additional load on the man power, the team draws people from the Engineering department.

The Engineering department also assists the Detailing team in Connection Design calculations etc.

Teams work simultaneously on the project model to bring down turn around times

Standards & quality

We work on the principle of matching the quality of major companies in our business but with significantly lower prices.

The Structural Steel Detailing, Connection Design and Checking are done as per American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC) and Canadian Institute of Steel Construction (CISC) standards for commercial and Industrial structures. The team has also expertise in Indian Standards, British Standards and Euro Code requirements for Steel Detailing and Construction.

This team also undergoes the quality audits for the company’s ISO 9001 certification. Every Structural steel shop drawing goes out to the customer only after the specified quality checks are done. Hard copies of drawings are taken for manual checking.
