Overview
What we do
Steel is what we know best. BIMLEED's engineers have spent the last decade designing, detailing, and supporting the erection of structural steel for industrial buildings, warehouses, hangars, and commercial projects across Saudi Arabia.
Our work covers two clear groups:
core steel services → design, drafting, shop drawings, and contracting
specialized erection engineering → the lift studies, method statements, and sequence analysis that turn a steel design into a safely erected building on site.
Group 1 — Foundation
Core Steel Services
01
Steel building design to AISC 360 (LRFD & ASD) and SBC 306
02
Connection design moment, shear, brace, and base-plate
Tekla Structures 3D models at LOD 400 fabrication-ready
03
04
05
06
07
08
Shop drawings: assembly, single-part, anchor bolt, erection
Material take-offs (MTO) and BOM directly from the model
Anchor bolt setting plans and embedment details
Pre-engineered building (PEB) review and as-built modeling
Steel platform, mezzanine, staircase, and handrail design
Specialized Erection Engineering
The engineering work that happens between the design office and the erection crew done right.
The dangerous part of a steel project is not the design — it's the four weeks when the steel actually goes up. Our specialized erection engineering services exist so that crane radius, bracing sequence, and lifting point design never become the reason a project stops on site.
⚙️
Lifting Lug & Pad eye Design
Welded-on lifting lugs and pad eyes designed to AISC, AWS D1.1, and DNV 2.7-1 where applicable. Every lug is checked for tension, bearing, weld capacity, and bending under sling angle — with a calculation sheet attached. We deliver the lug shop drawing and a fabrication note ready for the workshop.
🏗️
Heavy Lift Studies & Rigging Plans
Standalone engineering packages for heavy or unusual lifts — long-span trusses, mega-columns, modular assemblies, and tandem-crane operations. Each study includes a 3D rigging model, sling tension calculations, ground bearing pressure, lug loads, rigging gear capacities, and a documented contingency plan.
📋
Erection Method Statements
Project-specific erection procedures written for the actual sequence and conditions on your site. Each statement covers crane positioning, lifting points, temporary bracing, fall protection, and inspection holds — formatted to the layout consultants and Civil Defence reviewers expect.
📐
Connection Modification Studies
Field modification engineering when as-built conditions deviate from IFC design. Revised connection capacity calcs, alternative weld details, and stamped justification memos turned around in 24–48 hours so site work doesn't stop.
📊
Construction Sequence Analysis
Phase-by-phase analysis of the structure as it goes up — modeled in SAP2000 or STAAD with the temporary supports in place to confirm that every partial state is stable under its own weight, wind, and the bracing holding it together. Output: a clear sequence the erection team can follow safely.
🔧
Temporary Works Design
Engineered design for the temporary structures the permanent steel relies on during erection — temporary bracing, shoring, jacking frames, and stability towers. Each system is designed to its own loads, with a documented removal sequence so it comes out only when the permanent frame can stand alone.
