About Draftings Australia
About Draftings Australia
Draftings Australia is a Brisbane-based drafting and design company specialising in residential and construction-facing documentation — DA drawings, shop drawings, fabrication drawings, architectural drafting, and CAD conversion services. We work with homeowners, builders, architects, engineers, and fabricators across Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, and the Gold Coast.
Our team of qualified drafters and building designers brings together practical construction knowledge and technical CAD expertise. Whether you need a set of DA drawings for a council application, shop drawings for a steel fabricator, or construction documentation for a builder’s pricing set, we produce drawings that are accurate, standards-compliant, and delivered on time.
What We Do
Draftings Australia focuses on the documentation and drafting services that construction and building projects need at every stage:
- DA drawings — development application drawings for council submissions, including site plans, floor plans, elevations, sections, and shadow diagrams. Residential and commercial.
- Construction drawings — detailed documentation for construction certificates and building permits. Coordinated with engineers, ready for builders.
- Shop drawings — fabrication-level drawings for structural steel, joinery, miscellaneous metalwork, and precast elements. AS4100, AS3600, AS1554 compliant.
- Residential drafting — extensions, granny flats, new dwellings, dual occupancies, and renovation documentation for homeowners and owner-builders.
- Architectural CAD drafting — 2D CAD documentation from sketches, PDFs, or design intent for builders and architects who need production-ready drawings.
- CAD conversion — paper-to-CAD, PDF-to-DWG, 2D-to-3D conversion for legacy documentation and project handovers.
Who We Work With
Our clients include homeowners planning extensions or granny flats, builders needing documentation for construction pricing and permits, architects and building designers requiring drafting support, steel fabricators and joinery manufacturers needing shop drawings, and project managers who need CAD conversion or as-built documentation.
We understand that construction projects run to tight timelines and fixed budgets. Our processes are designed around fast turnaround, fixed-price quotes, and clear communication — so you know what you are getting and when you will get it.
