Detailing Services

MCS Detailing provides fabricators with fully automated steel detailing shop drawings using the latest 3-D software and ensures quality products are produced efficiently and in a timely manner.

Commitment
At MCS, we value both new and existing clients and handle each job with respect, accuracy, and attention to detail. We establish a strong relationship with our fabricators, and work hard to ensure they emerge profitable and impressed.

Quality
We deliver a quality product based on a strong understanding of the pressures fabricators face, be it contract schedules or schedules to fill a void in the shop. Meeting schedules and producing quality drawings ensures there will be no additional charges from the fabricator’s customer or erector.

MCS streamlines the fabricator’s shop by supplying all CNC, DXF, Fabtrol file needs or by creating the shop standards if they are non-existent (ie. standardizing clip angle and shear plate marks).

Project Types
We work on commercial and industrial buildings including schools, hospitals, churches, retail stores (past clients include Bass Pro Shop, Cabellas, Walmart, Apple). We also work on mining head frames, pipe bridges, and do platform framing.

Technology
We use SDS2 almost exclusively for our steel detailing. With this 3-D program we can Model and Detail the Structure, perform Clash checks, Design connections with calculation output, generate CNC, KISS files, and Fabtrol exports. SDS2 is also BIM-compatible. When it comes to erecting steel, “If it fits in the model, it will fit in the field.”

Communication
Communication with our clients is important to MCS. We set clear project goals and keep our clients regularly updated on project developments and milestones.

We communicate with Fabricators primarily by telephone and send confirmation e-mails and records of conversations. E-mails are answered immediately and an FTP site is used for to transfer large files.

Guarantee
The bottom line is that by using MCS to Detail your project, you can be sure that all of your schedule needs will be met and we will produce quality work. Our reputation is built on it.

Testimonials

MCS Detailing has done an exceptional job in communicating the required information to keep the detailing process moving forward. The RFIs received from MCS are clear and concise. MCS Detailing is a team player by helping to find solutions when presented with a challenge rather than making excuses.

The MCS Detailing team, under the direction of Tim McAuliffe has always risen to the challenge to provide Noront with quality detailed shop drawings in a very timely fashion. A true 5-Star detailing company, MCS Detailing comes with Noront’s highest recommendation.

MCS's quality, attentiveness to detail, personal touch, honesty and professional way of conducting business is unparalleled in the fabrication business. Tim McAuliffe hasn't "dropped the ball" once in our relationship. He responds over and above the call of duty. Synergy Steel Structures credits MCS with numerous money making, successful projects.

Working with MCS enabled us to experience their top performance within budget and on time within a very tight schedule. This project presented some unique design challenges which were all seamlessly overcome. MCS had a smooth integration with Walters right through shop drawing and connection design approval to field erection diagrams.

Throughout the [Apple retail store] project, MCS paid close attention to the details and did a great job of coordinating with the shop drawings and myself. Their use of SDSII for the modeling was a huge benefit since it is compatible with our in-house systems.
