Balustrade Drawings & Metalwork Sample Work
Balustrade drawings, handrail, stair stringer and custom metalwork shop drawings — full dimensioning, connection details, weld symbols to AS1657, AS1170.1 and AS1100.
Handrail & Balustrade Shop Drawings
Stainless steel, mild steel, aluminium and glass balustrade systems to AS1657. Top mount, side mount, glass channel, frameless.
Stair Stringer Detailing
Steel stair stringers with tread connection details, landing supports, balustrade integration. AS1657 / NCC tread/riser compliance.
Awning & Pergola Frames
Steel and aluminium awning support frames, pergola structures, shade structures with footing details.
Custom Metalwork
One-off architectural metalwork — sculptural elements, custom gates, screens, feature panels. CNC laser cut and folded.
Connection Details
Welded, bolted, and chemset-anchor connection details with full weld symbols per AS1100.201.
Material Take-offs
Sectional steel quantities, plate areas, bolt counts, weld lengths — fabricator-ready BOMs.
What Compliant Balustrade Drawings Include
Certifier-ready balustrade drawings are defined by what a fabricator and an inspector can each take from the same sheet: baluster spacing and infill dimensions checked against the NCC’s 125 mm sphere rule, barrier heights and loadings referenced to AS 1170.1, AS 1657 callouts where the work doubles as access protection, and weld symbols to AS 1554 on every connection rather than a general note hoping to cover them. Fixing details are drawn for the actual substrate — core-drilled into concrete, bolted to steel stringers, face-fixed to timber — with anchor specifications a supplier can order from. Setout dimensions that depend on site conditions are flagged for verification, which is what keeps powder-coated stock off the truck and on the stairs. Most of the balustrade drawings in this set were commissioned by fabricators quoting from an architect’s intent drawings — our job is converting that intent into shop-ready sheets with cut lengths, hole positions and finish schedules, usually inside a week, so the fabricator’s quote can be priced from real material quantities instead of allowances.
