// SMY3 Engineering

Steel detailing.Built for your shop.

Structural and miscellaneous steel detailing, coordinated around your shop standards, project specifications, and delivery schedule.

// How it works

Model. Coordinate. Deliver.

Model

Built in SDS2 and Tekla.

LOD 400 geometry with connections configured inside the model.

Coordinate

Clashes die before cutting.

Architecture, foundations and MEP resolved digitally.

Deliver

Ready for your shop.

DSTV, DXF, XML and KSS, matched to your equipment.

// Memberships
AISC Associate member logoAISC Detailer member logo

SMY3 is an AISC Associate and Detailer member, working alongside fabricators to the standards that shape structural steel.

// Detailing support for fabricators

Built around your shop.

A practical starting point: clear scope, agreed standards, and coordinated deliverables.

Shop-ready drawings

Your bolts. Your welds. Your equipment.

Models and drawings coordinated to the shop standards, connection requirements, and equipment details agreed for the project.

US time zone

Clear RFIs. Earlier answers.

Project coordination can be aligned with your US business hours, subject to the agreed project plan.

Capacity

Scale support to the scope.

Add detailing capacity for specific projects without committing to a permanent hire.

Compliance

Project-specific requirements.

Deliverables are prepared against applicable contract documents, project specifications, and agreed shop standards.

// Why we exist

SMY3 was founded on a simple observation: the greatest constraint facing many steel fabricators is not opportunity, it is execution capacity.

// From scope review to release
