Requirement of the Client - Balustrade Glass Modeling and Detailing

The client was a renowned welding and construction company facing a challenge in their increased requirement for balustrade glass shop drawings. With a lack of in-house expertise, the client required an offshore team that could provide CADD services for the glass industry. Especially a flexible engagement model and high-precision drafting support using Autodesk Inventor.

The client was searching for an outsourced partner with the experience and skill set to assist them in balustrade detailing, modeling, and screen structure assembly for terrace areas.

Steps Followed by BackOffice Pro (BOP) for Balustrade Detailing

BOP is a team of professionals experienced in providing balustrade detailing services to a Belgian welding and construction firm. To overcome the challenge of getting acquainted with their unique design methodology and techniques, BOP adopted a procedural approach ensuring operational efficiency and on-time delivery. The steps involved in the project execution are:

  • We assigned experienced glass modeling and detailing professionals based on project requirements and timelines.
  • The team received input data, including architectural drawings with detailed specifications, layouts of enveloped areas, and point cloud scanned data.
  • To ensure a smooth process, BOP conducted training sessions to familiarize the team with the interpretation of architectural drawings, balustrade glass panel designs, glass mounting methodology, and the project workflow.
  • The team then prepared 3D models and prior arrangement drawings using Inventor 2022 based on the architectural drawings and point cloud data, which were then sent for approval.
  • Upon approval, the team created balustrade glass shop drawings indicating mounting techniques and fixture placements for structures such as terraces, staircases, and handrails.
  • The collaboration between BOP and the team continued on a project and transactional basis.
