Connect design intent with execution
Technical documents need to communicate clearly with the people who will fabricate and install the work. Groupe Tremblay's GTI division works on connection and structural design and on the creation, coordination, and development of fabrication drawings and erection plans.
Structural steel is the primary focus, but the scope also includes connections and structures in concrete and wood. Material combinations and professional responsibilities must be defined at the outset of every engagement.
Set the engagement around the required deliverables
Depending on the confirmed scope, the work may address:
The issued documents, included revisions, design responsibilities, and approval process must be set out in the agreed scope.
- Connection design
- Structural design
- Fabrication drawing development
- Erection plan preparation
- Drawing coordination across project participants
- Consulting engineering services
Involvement beyond the drawing stage
The engineering and detailing team remains involved during fabrication and erection. That continuity connects the technical decisions to the conditions encountered in the shop and field.
When the team identifies a constraint, it may propose alternatives intended to address project cost or construction time. Every option remains subject to the technical requirements, required approvals, and jobsite conditions.
Available within an integrated project or as consulting work
GTI supports work delivered alongside the group's fabrication and installation divisions. The division also offers consulting engineering services directly to clients. A buyer can therefore discuss a focused engineering or detailing assignment or a coordinated engineering–fabrication–erection engagement.
