Elements and Performance Criteria
- Detail stairways, platforms, ladders and landings
- Scheduling of detail drawings for stairways, platforms, ladders and landings are discussed with fabricator
- Design information is checked and any requests for further information (RFIs) are made
- Large scale set-out or 3D model of stairway is prepared and setting out points established
- Stairway is dimensioned and detailed consistent with design information and the Building Code of Australia and AS 1657
- Holding down bolt layout and base plate details are prepared for ground floor supports or plinths
- Detail other ancillary steel structures
- Design information is received from client and fabrication schedule and requirements including allocation of components for shop and site fabrication confirmed
- Size limitations of any sections requiring corrosion treatment or other surface finishing processes are determined
- Transport limitations, erection procedures and limitations, and any relevant codes and regulations are determined
- Rough large scale layout and 3D model is combined with trial assembly if required
- Design information is used to directly insert or calculate and insert all dimensions, clearances, bolt layouts, weld types and dimensions, direction marks and surface finishes on shop drawings and erection diagrams
- Detail drawings are sent for approval by designer
