I have a PDF concept design for a new commercial building and now need it translated into a full set of structural engineering drawings ready for construction issue. Every element must comply with AS 3600 for concrete, AS 4100 for steel, and AS 1170 for structural design actions. Wherever the concept shows an Australian steel grade, we may need it converted to the correct Chinese equivalent and annotate both grades on the drawings. The PDF includes plans, elevations, and key sections; you will be expected to extract all member sizes, connection details, and load paths, then develop them into clean, fully dimensioned CAD drawings (DWG and PDF). A concise calculation package that demonstrates code compliance should accompany the drawings. (if required, Australian Engineer sign off can be do...

I require a complete set of structural drawings for a new tunnel-style car wash being built in Canada. The package must cover the two core components of the building’s frame: the foundations and footings that will carry the tunnel equipment loads, and the roof structure that spans the wash bay. All details have to comply with the applicable Canadian building codes and any provincial supplements, so please factor in snow loads, seismic considerations, climate exposure, and the usual CSA material standards from the outset. To streamline approvals with the municipal authority and my equipment supplier, I will need the drawings delivered in both PDF (for submission) and editable CAD format (preferably AutoCAD or Revit). A short calculation memo demonstrating code compliance should accom...
Busco un diseñador industrial que desarrolle un toldo vertical para uso comercial. El proyecto parte desde cero: necesito que transformes mi idea en un conjunto completo de planos y especificaciones listos para producción. Requisitos clave • Producto: toldo vertical enfocado al sector comercial. • Característica imprescindible: Resistencia a la intemperie; la solución debe soportar lluvia, radiación UV y ráfagas de viento moderadas sin comprometer funcionalidad ni estética. • Diseño: estructura, sistema de enrollado, anclajes y acabados exteriores. • Entregables: – Bocetos conceptuales validados conmigo. – Modelado 3D (SolidWorks, Inventor o similar). – Planos técnicos ...
I need a clean, accurate 3D model of a simple car garage 8x14m with 4 gates that I can use directly for construction planning and submit, together with 2D plans, to the local building authority. Because the drawings will serve an official purpose, dimensional fidelity is more important than photorealism; a basic‐structure level of detail is enough. Walls, roof pitches, openings, and slab heights must all be shown precisely, but interior furniture, textures, or elaborate materials are unnecessary. From the finished model I will also require the conventional plan set most offices ask for—site plan, floor plan, roof plan, elevations, and a simple section—exported to both PDF and an editable CAD format (DWG or DXF). Each sheet has to include metric dimensions, scale bars, and titl...
I have a set of rough hand-drawn sketches for a manufacturing machine and now need them translated into professional, production-ready CAD files. Your task is to turn each concept into a clean 3D model and a matching set of 2D drawings that cover every individual part and the full assembly. You will start from my scans and notes, ask any clarifying questions, then create a well-structured CAD file tree so the relationship between parts, sub-assemblies, and the final assembly is crystal clear. The documentation must be suitable for machinists and fabricators, so dimensions, tolerances, and call-outs should follow industry standards. I am flexible on software: if you work in SolidWorks, Inventor, Fusion 360, or similar, that’s fine as long as you can export common formats such as DWG...
I need detailed shop drawings for a pantry and foyer built-ins, produced in MicroVellum and ready to go straight to the CNC as a manufacturing guide. The package must include fully dimensioned plans, elevations, sections, and all required joinery details, plus the MicroVellum project file with correct tooling setups and a clean nesting (G-code/DXF) export so the parts can be cut without further edits. You are free to select the most appropriate material libraries in MicroVellum—as long as the drawings clearly call out panels, edge treatments, and hardware and everything tallies with the nesting file. If something is unclear, flag it early; accuracy on hole patterns, reveals, and clearances is critical. Deliverables • Shop drawing PDF set for pantry and foyer cabinetry &bul...
I need a plastic snap-fit cap designed and engineered for a consumer-facing pill bottle. This project covers the full path from concept refinement through design for manufacturability so that we can move straight into tooling when the design is approved. Scope of work • Create a 3D CAD model of the cap and complementary neck finish that secures solid medication (pills, tablets) with a positive snap action suitable for repeated daily use by end-customers. • Optimise the geometry for injection-moulded plastic, specifying draft angles, shut-offs, gate locations and any living hinges or tamper-evident features that add value without increasing cycle time unnecessarily. • Run tolerance and stack-up studies to be sure the cap seals consistently when mass-produced. • ...

I need a drafter who can turn my blueprints and sketches into fabrication-ready shop drawings for a series of bespoke cabinets, wall panelling and other highly detailed joinery pieces. All material specifications are already defined, and I can supply a full folder of reference photos and inspiration images to guide style, proportions and finishes. The goal is to translate the design intent precisely so my workshop can move straight into production with no guesswork. Drawings should include plan, elevation and detailed section views, accurate dimensions, material call-outs and clear hardware annotations. If you work in AutoCAD or a comparable platform that exports clean DWG/PDF files, that will align perfectly with our workflow. Deliverables • Complete set of shop drawings for each...
I’m developing a new food-processing machine and need an experienced mechanical product designer who can take it from concept sketches to a complete, production-ready CAD package. The core of the assignment is full mechanical design: modelling all components and assemblies, laying out the drive system, and making sure the entire line meets food-industry hygiene and safety requirements. You’ll translate my functional notes into detailed 3D geometry, refine the mechanism for manufacturability, and generate the fabrication drawings we can hand straight to the shop. I work in SolidWorks myself, so native files in that format would be ideal, but I’m open to Inventor or STEP if that suits your workflow better. Good practice in tolerancing, material selection and sealed-shaft d...

I have a full set of architectural blueprints that must be redrawn in AutoCAD with millimetre-level precision, using metres as the drawing units throughout. Every line, hatch, dimension, note, and standard architectural symbol visible on the originals needs to appear in the new files exactly where it belongs so the redrawn plans can be over-laid on site layouts without adjustment. The source sheets are clean but old, so accuracy and careful layer management are essential. Nothing new must be interpreted; simply reproduce what is there—including title blocks, legends, and scale bars—while keeping annotation styles clear and consistent. Standard architectural symbols only are present, so no custom libraries are required. Deliverables • Separate DWG file for each original...
I’m finalising the civil package for an effluent treatment plant and need a reliable CAD hand to take my mark-ups and convert them into polished, construction-ready drawings. The focus is strictly on drafting and detailing; I already have the overall design locked in. Your task covers structural drawings only, and every element you touch will be concrete—foundations, slabs, walls, trenches, pedestals, the works. You’ll translate my sketches and design notes into clean, well-layered DWG files that conform to standard civil/structural drafting conventions (metric units). Deliverables I expect: • General arrangement plans and sections for each concrete element • Detailed reinforcement drawings with bar schedules • Consistent title blocks, notes and rev...
I need a complete set of fabrication-ready drawings for a diesel generator canopy whose main function is soundproofing. The enclosure will be built entirely from steel, so every detail—from structural members and weld symbols to the arrangement of acoustic panels and ventilation louvers—has to reflect that choice of material. My goal is to hand your package straight to the fabricator without additional rework. That means: • Fully dimensioned 2D shop drawings in DWG and PDF • A concise bill of materials with steel grades and thicknesses • Section views showing acoustic lining, doors, hinges, lifting eyes, cable-entry plates and exhaust routing • Notes on surface treatment, fasteners and gasket specifications • A 3D model (STEP or similar) for q...

I have a hand-drawn sketch of a commercial space that needs to be translated into a clean, accurate CAD floor plan. The brief is simple: capture the walls, windows, and doors exactly as shown—no furniture, fixtures, electrical, or plumbing at this stage. Please draft the plan to scale, keep elements on logical layers, and follow standard line weights so the file drops straight into our wider project set without rework. The final deliverable I need is a fully editable DWG file; a companion PDF for quick viewing would be appreciated but is not mandatory. If you’re comfortable turning straightforward sketches into precise DWGs and can return the file promptly, I’d love to hear from you.
