1. Structural drawing

2. STRUCTURE AND MATERIAL
Structural drawing consists of the preparation of design and construction drawings for buildings, bridges, domes, tanks, towers, and other civil structures.
Most of our structures also have many interconnecting parts such as beams, girders and columns, that forms a structure.
The materials most commonly used in construction are wood, glass, structural steel, aluminum, concrete (plain, reinforced, and pre-stressed), structural clay products, and stone masonry (plain and reinforced).

5. Joints and Connectors Typical Bolted Joints
Metal Connectors for Timber Structures

6. 22.4 STRUCTURE STEEL DRAFTING
Structure steel drawings are ordinarily of two types:
Engineering design drawings made in the design engineer’s office.
Manufacturing (shop) drawings usually made in the office of steel fabricator.

7. Design Drawings Design drawings are primarily shown Overall dimension.
Location of columns, beams, angles and other shapes.
Listing the sizes of these members.
Information about the cross section and connectors.
Various necessary notes.

8. Design drawings
Design drawings show the overall dimensions of the structure, such as the location of columns, beams, angles, and other structural shapes, and list the sizes of these members. Detail in the form of typical cross sections, special connections required, and various notes are also included.

10. Shop Drawings
Shop Drawings consist of detail drawings of all parts of the entire structure, showing exactly how the parts are to be made.

11. Shop Drawings
Fabrication, shop methods, and field construction methods must be fully understood by the detailer.

12. WELDING
The fillet weld is most common in structural steel fabrication. Use standard weld symbols to simplify making the shop drawings.

A ¼ inch leg length fillet weld

13. Piece Marks
A system is used to mark each piece that is separately handled
This mark is called a piece mark and should be shown wherever the member appears on the drawings

15. Structural Steel Shapes
Aluminum and magnesium shapes are also available but here only steel shapes.
Structural steel is available in many standard shapes
Available shapes are (made by rolling mills)
Square, Flat, Round, Plate Angle, Channel, I-section, T-section,
Most CAD programs have structural shapes symbol libraries available
