What AJ Metal Building Services Does
When a project reaches the shop, clarity matters.
Engineering information that is difficult to interpret can become RFIs, fabrication delays, coordination issues, and unnecessary rework.
AJ focuses on
- Clear Design
Structural requirements and loading developed around the project criteria.
- Coordinated Detailing
Design information carried into the detailing workflow.
- Fabrication-Focused Drawings
Drawings, marks, and material information organized for practical fabrication.
- Direct Communication
One specialist coordinating directly with your project team.
