Drafting Services

We produce code-compliant shop drawings, fabrication drawings, and BIM modeling with 360 coordination for architectural aluminum and glazing systems. Working closely with glazing contractors, project managers, and engineers, we ensure every drawing reflects field conditions, system requirements, and project specifications, supporting accurate fabrication, coordination, and installation.

Engineering Design

Engineering Design is where we develop the conceptual and technical logic behind façade and glazing systems. At 823 Drafting Studio, this phase focuses on defining system behavior, component relationships, constructability, and integration with surrounding assemblies providing clear, buildable solutions before numerical analysis and formal engineering calculations begin.

Engineering Analysis

Engineering Analysis focuses on the numerical validation and physical performance of façade and glazing systems. We provide structural calculations, system analysis, and engineering support to verify that designs meet applicable codes, loads, and performance criteria, forming the technical basis for stamped calculations and approved shop drawings.
