Steel Detailing Projects

Vertex Steel Detailing has completed five detailing projects since it was founded in 2026. One is published here as a detailed case study: HSS frame assemblies with structural thermal breaks for an airport terminal rehabilitation and addition in New England. The other four will be added once their details are confirmed for publication.

More completed projects, not yet published

Shop drawings belong to the fabricator. Project details appear here only once they are confirmed for publication.

Why is only one project published?

Only one project is published because shop drawings are the fabricator's deliverable, not the detailer's portfolio. Vertex publishes a project only when its details are confirmed for release, and names a client, a project or a location only with the client's written permission. The published case study is anonymised for exactly that reason.

The other four completed projects are listed here as a count, not as invented summaries. They will be added with the same structure as the case study once their details are cleared.

What does each project entry include?

Each project entry states the project type, the scope of steel detailed, the deliverables produced and the turnaround, with dates where they are part of the record. Entries use technical facts from the drawings, such as member sizes, bolt specifications and revision dates, rather than adjectives, so a fabricator can judge the work.

Client drawing images are not published. If drawing extracts are ever shown, with permission, title blocks, company logos, job numbers and detailer initials are removed first, and only geometry, member call-outs, weld symbols, dimensions and bill of material structure remain.

How else can you judge the work?

Beyond the case study, you can judge the work through the documented checking process, client feedback, and a first package reviewed on your own terms. The quality control page lists what is checked on every sheet, and the thermal break detailing page shows the technical depth behind the published project.

For fabricators weighing overflow capacity, the steel fabricators page explains how a first package is set up to your shop standards.
