Innovate. Detail. Deliver.
Rough out a
rigid frame. See it stand up.
Drag the sliders to set your span, length, and eave height. Watch a PEB rigid frame erect itself in 3D, and get a ballpark tonnage and detailing cost — before you ever pick up the phone.
Frame parameters
Budgetary estimate for lead-qualification only — not for fabrication, procurement, or structural design. Actual tonnage and detailing cost depend on code, loading, connection complexity, and site conditions.
What we detail
Built around one thing: rigid frames.
Eight years detailing PEB and conventional steel means the connection logic, the erection sequence, and the fabricator's shop-floor constraints are second nature — not a learning curve on your project.
PEB & Rigid Frame Detailing
Primary and secondary framing, tapered built-up members, purlins, girts, and bracing — modeled to fit your fabricator's shop practices, not just the drawing.
Connection Design
Moment and shear connections detailed for constructability: bolt patterns, gusset sizing, and clearances checked against real erection sequence, not just AISC minimums.
Tekla Open API & C# Automation
Custom Tekla applications and macros for repetitive modeling — parametric frame generators, drawing automation, and BOM extraction that cut hours off every job.
How a job runs
Four drawings, one sequence.
Numbered the way the drawings themselves are numbered — each stage is a real deliverable, not a marketing step.
Model
Structure modeled in Tekla Structures from your architectural/structural set — primary frame, secondary framing, and bracing.
Connections
Connection design resolved for every joint — moment frames, base plates, bracing gussets — checked for shop and field fit.
Fabrication drawings
Shop drawings and single-part details issued for cutting, punching, and welding, plus BOM for material procurement.
Erection drawings
Erection plans and sequence issued for the field crew, with piece marks tied directly back to the shop drawings.
Founder-led. Detailer-first.
Meenaxis Steel Detailing Solutions is a solo structural steel detailing practice — no account managers, no junior detailers learning on your project. Every model, every connection, every drawing runs through the same hands.
Eight years detailing PEB and conventional structural steel, with a focus on rigid frame buildings, connection design, and building custom Tekla Open API tools to speed up repetitive modeling work.
