PROJECTS & QUOTATIONS
What information do you need to prepare a quotation?
Please share your structural and architectural drawings, project specifications, expected scope of detailing and preferred delivery schedule. PDF, DWG and IFC files are helpful. If some information is not yet available, we can review the existing documents and identify what is needed.
How do you price steel detailing projects?
Our quotations are based on project size, structural complexity, detailing requirements, available engineering information and expected deliverables. We provide a project-specific quotation with an agreed scope of work.
Can we start with a small project before a larger collaboration?
Yes. We can discuss a smaller paid detailing package or trial project to establish drawing conventions, modeling requirements and communication procedures before progressing to a larger scope.
How are project revisions and technical questions managed?
We coordinate technical questions with the client's project team and incorporate approved changes into the Tekla model and drawings. The scope and potential impact of additional revisions are discussed before implementation.
Can you work under a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)?
Yes. We can review and agree on a mutual NDA to protect confidential project information, engineering drawings and client documentation before starting the collaboration.
TECHNICAL & DELIVERABLES
What services does Femsteel Design provide?
We specialize in Tekla Structures 3D modeling, structural steel detailing, fabrication drawings, erection plans and model revisions. Our services are available for industrial, commercial and architectural steel structures.
Do you provide structural calculations or connection design certification?
Our primary service is Tekla Structures modeling and steel detailing based on engineering documentation supplied by the client. Structural calculations, design verification and engineering certification remain the responsibility of the appointed project engineer unless separately agreed.
Which countries and engineering standards can you work with?
We support international steel detailing projects using metric dimensions in millimetres (mm). Our work can be adapted to approved engineering designs and project specifications referencing Eurocodes, Australian and New Zealand Standards, British Standards and other international requirements.
What files and drawings can you deliver?
Depending on the agreed project scope, deliverables may include Tekla models, assembly drawings, single-part drawings, general arrangement plans, erection drawings and material reports. PDF, DWG, IFC, DXF and NC/DSTV data can be provided where applicable and agreed.
How do you handle model coordination and technical discrepancies?
We review the supplied engineering information and coordinate detailing-related discrepancies with the project team. Missing dimensions, connection information and design clarifications are referred to the responsible engineers before the affected details are finalized.
PRICING & COLLABORATION
How long does a typical detailing project take?
Project schedules depend on structural complexity, project size, the completeness of engineering drawings and the required deliverables. We establish a realistic delivery schedule after reviewing the project documentation and agreed scope.
Which currencies and payment methods do you accept?
We work with international clients and can discuss quotations in EUR, USD or GBP. The agreed currency, payment method and applicable banking arrangements are confirmed before the project begins.
What are your payment terms?
Payment terms are established in the project quotation. Depending on the scope and duration, payments may be arranged around agreed project milestones, such as project commencement, drawing review and final delivery.
How are additional revisions or scope changes billed?
Revisions within the agreed scope are handled according to the project terms. Significant design changes or additional work outside the original scope are reviewed separately, with any cost and schedule adjustments agreed before proceeding.
How are international invoices and taxes handled?
Invoices are issued in accordance with applicable Turkish tax and invoicing requirements. The tax treatment of international services depends on the transaction and relevant regulations. Applicable invoicing details are confirmed for each engagement.
