At intake, StruxBIM™ reads the EOR's design drawings, flags every ambiguity, and drafts RFIs before our team models a single member. Before delivery, it checks every member and connection against AISC 360-22, ASCE 7-22, and IBC before any drawing goes to you.
Three AI capabilities run on the EOR's design drawings before our team models a single member. The goal: eliminate every ambiguity before it becomes a revision cycle.
StruxBIM™ reads the engineer of record's PDF drawings using a dual-engine pipeline — AI vision for raster/scanned PDFs, structured text extraction for vector PDFs — and builds a verified data layer covering every member designation, grid line, connection type, and dimension before detailing starts.
Two detection passes run over the extracted data. A rule engine checks for completeness against AISC 303-22 requirements — missing grids, ambiguous member labels, absent connection details. An AI model then analyzes the full dataset for constructability concerns and fabrication-critical gaps.
When an issue requires clarification from the engineer of record, StruxBIM™ drafts the RFI automatically. Each email is technically precise with full project context and a clearly stated question. Multiple findings are grouped into a single package to minimize EOR interruptions. Detailing does not begin until every critical RFI is answered.
Before any drawing package goes to a client, StruxBIM™ runs our structural model through AISC 360-22, ASCE 7-22, and IBC. Every member is checked — not spot-checked. Every check returns the governing equation and utilization ratio. No drawing leaves without passing this gate.
Every member and connection is verified against the governing standard for your region. International projects are supported — with more codes being added.

Honest extensions of what StruxBIM™ already does. We won't build what modelling software already handles well.
When the EOR issues a revised drawing set, StruxBIM™ will automatically compare it against the previous extraction — flagging exactly which member designations, dimensions, or connection types changed, and which shop drawings are affected.
No other detailing service does this today. Be first to know when it ships.
Get Early AccessNo spam. We'll email you when this is ready for beta.
Before modeling begins, StruxBIM™ uses the member designations and quantities already extracted at Step 01 to produce a rough cost range — traceable to the source drawing, sheet, and member. Early budget clarity without waiting for the full 3D model.
No spam. We'll email you when this is ready for beta.
Read exported model data (IFC, CIS/2, DSTV, Excel BOM) and automatically extract material weights, bolt counts, weld lengths, and fabrication complexity for an accurate cost estimate — before drawings are issued.
Extend StruxBIM™'s automated checks beyond AISC 360-22, ASCE 7-22, and IBC — adding AISC 341-22 seismic ductility automation and deeper IBC provisions.
Full RFI and submittal lifecycle tracking — open vs. closed, revision approvals, who responded and when — so nothing falls through the cracks between submission and detailing.
