Structural Steelwork Documentation

First published in 2002, SteelDoc was developed to clearly identify what contract documents, particularly drawings, should contain for the structural steel contractor to efficiently prepare shop drawings, and to minimise rework and costly delays. The recommendations and checklists contained in SteelDoc have been collated following wide consultation and feedback from New Zealand structural steel fabricators and detailers, engineers and construction companies. The 2022 revision has been updated to align its requirements with current practice and standards.
