Fabrication-ready steel, modelled to the last bolt.
10+ years in Tekla Structures, delivering 3D models, shop and erection drawings for industrial and commercial projects in Australia, New Zealand and Russia. I also build Tekla Open API and IDEA StatiCa automation in C#.
Projects
Projects with a 3D badge open in an interactive viewer. You can rotate the model, isolate parts, cut sections and inspect each member's properties straight from the IFC.
From model setup to issue for fabrication
I run projects end to end, or join your team for a single package. I follow your drawing standards, templates and numbering conventions.
3D steel modelling
- Industrial & commercial structures
- Custom components & connections
- Complex assemblies, pipe racks, frames
Drawings & outputs
- GA and erection drawings
- Assembly & single-part drawings
- Reports, NC / DXF / CNC files
Checking & coordination
- Model & clash checking
- Numbering and revisions
- RFIs and design clarifications
Team & standards
- AS/NZS, AISC, EN, GOST
- Drawing templates to client standard
- Leading and mentoring detailers
I write tools that save detailing hours
A C#/.NET developer who works as a detailer, so the tools fix problems I hit on real projects.
Connection design automation for IDEA StatiCa
A desktop app for a structural engineering bureau that replaced manual work in the IDEA StatiCa GUI. Engineers set up a parametric template once; the app runs the checks and produces the PDF calculation reports.
Tekla plugins & custom components
Plugins for connections and automated framing, custom components, and drawing and report templates. They make detailing faster and keep drawings consistent.
AI-assisted Tekla workflows
Pet projects that connect AI tools to Tekla Structures through an MCP server. The AI can query, model and check a live model.
An engineer who likes to know how things are built
I've been detailing structural steel since 2011. I started at Lenmontage in Saint Petersburg and later led a team of steel designers in Moscow. Since 2021 I've worked remotely from Belgrade for an Australian client.
I care about models a fabrication shop can trust: clean numbering, consistent drawings, and connections that are checked before they reach the workshop. When a task keeps repeating, I write a tool for it in C#.

Have a steel package that needs detailing?
I'm a remote contractor and available during Australian business hours. No visa or relocation needed. Send me the drawings and the scope, and I'll reply with an estimate.
