What an Engineer Needs to Know about Steel Erection (PDH)

Presented by: Curtis Mayes, PE

With some early planning and interaction with the erector during the design phase, engineers may find that projects run more smoothly during construction. Having a basic understanding of what is advantageous and challenging to the steel erector can help facilitate such planning and constructability integration by the engineer into his or her drawings. In this webinar, participants will learn what an engineer needs to know about steel erection.

Topics will include:

  • Erector (and fabricator) friendly connections
  • Field welding guidelines
  • Construction stability issues to consider
  • Items in the specifications for the erector that may need clarification
  • Examples of the use of Building Information Modeling (BIM) in erection planning

This course is based on a past AISC Live Webinar.
