About the firm

Steel detailing,
practised for decades.

3DCon Steel Detailing (Pty) Ltd is a South African steel detailing firm built on technical rigour and long-standing client relationships. From portal-frame warehouses to signature architectural staircases, we produce the shop and erection drawings that turn engineering intent into built steel — delivering across Southern Africa and on international projects, with multiple SAISC Steel Awards to our name.

Our approach

Detailing that respects the erector as much as the engineer.

Great steel detailing is invisible when it's done well — the frame goes up quickly, the connections align, and RFIs stay off the site manager's desk.

We invest in the front-end thinking: careful model checks, clash detection, connection design coordination and clear communication with fabricators. The result is drawings that build.

Our team has delivered on jobs of every scale — from small agri-industrial sheds to commercial atriums and signature architectural steel.

Partnership

We work as an extension of your engineering and project teams — responsive, transparent, and invested in the outcome.
