AI Steel
Analyse
AI · Drawing analysis
Upload GA drawings, DSTV NC or DWG files and the platform returns a clean, priceable structural steel schedule within minutes — sections, lengths, weights and connections, each fully traceable to the source drawing region. Estimator take-offs that previously required a working day are returned in minutes, with documented audit traceability.

Capability
What we
deliver.
From drawing-type routing and automated take-off through auditable BOM generation and direct enquiry export — every schedule is traceable to its source drawing region, eliminating manual re-keying and estimator rework.
Phase 01
Drawing-type routing
Sketches, GA drawings, fabrication tickets and CNC files are automatically routed to the model best matched to the drawing type and required output.
- GA drawing OCR
- DSTV NC parsing
- DWG / DXF support
- Structured Q&A
Phase 02
Bring-your-own-key or managed
Integrate Claude, Gemini, GPT or DeepSeek using the client's own API key — or operate on the managed service with no client-side configuration.
- OpenAI
- Anthropic Claude
- Google Gemini
- DeepSeek
Phase 03
Auditable take-offs
Each quantity is traceable to the drawing region from which it was derived — providing a documented audit trail for the QS, principal contractor and design team.
- Drawing-region traceability
- Documented audit trail
- Versioned take-off history
- Shareable with QS & design team
Phase 04
Built for estimators
Export directly to cost reporting, push into the enquiry record or release to the fabrication facility as a cutting list — eliminating manual re-keying and spreadsheet maintenance.
- Direct cost-report export
- Push to enquiry record
- Release as cutting list
- No manual re-keying
AI Analyse — how it works for you

AI take-off
AI structural steel take-off for estimators
AI Steel Analyse converts GA drawings, DSTV NC files and DWG/DXF exports into a clean, priceable beam schedule in minutes. Upload a single sheet or a full set; the model extracts section sizes, lengths, weights and connection details, then ties every line back to the drawing region it came from. The result is an auditable structural steel take-off your QS can sign off without re-checking by hand.
Estimators routinely save half a day per enquiry. Sketches go to a fast vision model, GAs and fabrication tickets to a take-off specialist, and CNC files are parsed directly — so accuracy stays high without you having to pick a tool each time.
From schedule to fabricated frame
Once the schedule is agreed, push it straight into an enquiry for our structural steel frames workshop. Material is ordered against the same line items, fabricated under our BS EN 1090 EXC 3 system, and tracked through to dispatch — no re-keying between estimating and production.
Bring your own model, or use ours
Connect Claude, Gemini, GPT or DeepSeek with your own API key, or run on our keys with no setup. Every output is paired with an ISO 9001 audit trail so the take-off you priced is the take-off that gets cut, welded and delivered.
FAQs
AI steel analyse,
explained.
How our AI-powered drawing take-off turns GA plans, DSTV NC and DWG files into a priceable beam schedule in seconds.
- AI steel take-off uses computer vision and language models to read structural drawings, GA plans, DSTV NC files and DWG / DXF exports, then extracts section sizes, lengths, hole patterns and weights into a clean, priceable beam schedule — replacing a half-day of manual estimator work.
