Job description

The Berlin Steel Construction Company is a full-service specialty contractor, primarily with structural steel and miscellaneous metals.

  • Create detailed erection plans used by the Erector to assemble steel structures in the field.
  • Review contract documents, architectural, and structural drawings to generate piece details and framing plans.
  • Provide material lists (shop bolts, field bolts, mill orders, galvanized pieces, etc.).
  • Assist Project Managers in interpreting shop and field drawings.
  • Maintain a current working knowledge of AISC regulations, connection design, detailing practices, and steel member dimensions and properties.
  • Maintain knowledge of company detailing and connection standards.

Qualifications
  • Proficiency with AutoCAD and Microsoft Office products.
  • Strong communication skills.
  • Experience with bridge projects or bridge steel detailing is a plus.
  • Experience in structural steel or construction detailing is strongly preferred.
