National experience, organized by sector.
Woodell serves fabricators, erectors, general contractors and structural engineers nationwide. Because detailing is delivered digitally — Tekla models and PDF shop and erection drawings — our Minnesota base doesn't limit where we work. Here's how we handle the detailing challenges specific to your industry.
Commercial & Corporate
Commercial steel is the bread-and-butter of the industry — and often the most schedule-driven. We detail offices, mid- and high-rise towers, retail, hospitality and mixed-use developments, coordinating moment and braced-frame connections, tenant fit-outs and building additions on fast-track timelines.
- Fast-track packages that hold the erection schedule
- Moment & braced-frame connection coordination
- Architecturally exposed lobby steel and feature stairs
- Coordination with concrete cores and MEP
Industrial & Manufacturing
Industrial projects are often the largest single jobs a detailer handles — very high tonnage, complex platework, and a heavy load of miscellaneous metals. We detail warehouses, manufacturing and process plants, food & beverage facilities and battery/EV plants, including the platforms, stairs, grating, pipe racks and equipment-support steel that come with them.
- High-tonnage frames and girt/purlin systems
- Equipment support steel, mezzanines and pipe racks
- Platforms, stairs, ladders & grating to OSHA/IBC
- Advance bills to absorb long mill lead times on big packages
Healthcare, Education & Institutional
Healthcare and institutional projects are among the most complex and code-sensitive in construction — vibration criteria, seismic detailing, infection-control phasing and heavy equipment loads. We detail hospitals, medical office buildings, universities, K-12 schools, student housing and civic buildings, delivering coordinated, code-compliant drawings for phased construction that often proceeds around occupied space.
- Phased sequencing for occupied hospitals and campuses
- Vibration-sensitive and seismic framing
- Institutional & public-bid documentation standards
Infrastructure & Energy
Infrastructure and energy work is technically demanding and standards-driven. We detail bridges and pedestrian structures, transit stations, power generation, renewables and battery/energy-storage facilities — including the pipe racks, platforms, stair towers and equipment supports these projects require.
- Standards-driven bridge, transit and civil detailing
- Equipment supports, pipe racks and stair towers
- Phased shutdown coordination for energy facilities
- Non-orthogonal and long-span geometry
Detailing delivered coast to coast.
Steel detailing is a digital deliverable. We model, draw and issue machine files from Minnesota and deliver them to fabricators, erectors, GCs and engineers anywhere in the country — with the same senior team accountable from first model to fabrication release.
We reference geography only as a factual attribute of a specific project — never as a reason we can't take your work.
Map is illustrative of nationwide service, not a claim of a physical office in each state.
