NJ AISC Shop & Stamped Drawings
Budget: $750 – $1,500 USD
I’m starting with a Chinese-origin CAD file and need it transformed into a fully compliant, build-ready package for use in New Jersey.
Phase 1 – Shop drawing
• Redraft the frame to current AISC standards, switching all members from 40 × 40 mm to 2" × 2" × 1/8" square tube steel.
• Add the required M10 bolt holes exactly where shown in the source file. There are no bolt holes in the source file. There is a diagram of each of the 1 meter x 1 meter cabinets that make up the 28 square meter sign which is 7 meters wide x 4 meters high and 800 mm off the ground.
The M10 bolt holes go only on the outer most 4 meter tall left and right vertical support beam and the top and bottom horizontal support beam.
• Break the frame into shippable sections and show dimension specifications, material specifications, bolt and hole locations, and the total weight of each section as well as the assembled frame.
• Return a clean CAD (dwg) and printable PDF.
Phase 2 – Engineering stamp
Using the completed shop drawing, calculate the ballast necessary for a 60 mph wind load in accordance with New Jersey building codes, then produce a signed and sealed structural drawing. The stamp must be issued by a currently licensed New Jersey structural engineer; please include your license number with your proposal.
I will supply the original CAD file as soon as we agree on the scope. If you are that NJ-licensed engineer—or you work directly with one—let’s move forward.
