3D Modelling and Fabrication Drawings
Although it’s a recent addition to our services, 3D modelling has quickly become one of the most invaluable parts of Geo Ausden's work.
Whenever our structural steel fabricators are asked to work on a project involving a large structure, we’re able to use fabrication drawings from architects and structural engineers to create 3D modelled fabrication layouts. These drawings will stipulate the sizes and lengths of all steel required in the project, helping to maintain a high level of accuracy throughout construction.

The Benefits of Using 3D Modelling
Unless you have prior experience in completing steel fabrication tasks, you may not know why 3D modelling is such a crucial part of the process. These detailed drawings list the sizes and lengths of all steel required whilst also including the parts and materials needed for the entire fabrication process and list any welds that may be necessary.
The process of 3D modelling also really helps our team at Geo Ausden, as it allows us to utilise CNC (Computerised Numerical Control) technology for the accurate production of beam lengths, hole locations, and plasma cut plates and fittings. We also have access to cutting-edge modelling software that enables our team to screencast a project so that we’re able to see every single detail and ensure that nothing is missed.
You can rest assured that all materials identified in the fabrication drawings and 3D modelling will be done per the relevant standards and codes, improving the health and safety of your project. These documents will also identify whether heat treatment or stress-relieving treatment is required at any part of the steel fabrication project.
What Projects Can 3D Modelling Be Used For?
The experienced team working here at Geo Ausden will work together with your chosen installers and engineers to ensure that the fabrication drawings and 3D modelling are completed correctly, helping to improve the overall impact of your project.
In the past, we have used our 3D modelling services to complete the following types of projects:
- Steel frame buildings
- Staircases
- Handrails
- Roofs
- Floors
- One-off projects
