Our approach & solution

Every metals estimate begins with a detailed review of structural drawings, steel schedules, connection details, fabrication requirements, and project specifications. Our estimators identify every structural member, miscellaneous metal component, connection, and fabrication detail before preparing an accurate quantity takeoff.

We calculate all required structural steel sections, miscellaneous metals, decking, bolts, welds, connection plates, anchors, accessories, and labor requirements while considering fabrication standards, erection requirements, waste factors, and industry best practices. Every estimate undergoes a comprehensive quality assurance review to ensure completeness, consistency, and compliance with project documents.

Using advanced estimating software and current market pricing, we prepare organized reports that simplify fabrication planning, procurement, budgeting, scheduling, and bid preparation while helping contractors reduce estimating errors and improve operational efficiency.
