AI QA/QC for Structural Engineers
Comprehensive quality assurance and quality control check across the entire drawing set for consistency, completeness, and accuracy. Designed for the way structural engineers work.
Schedule a DemoThe Challenges Structural Engineers Face
MEP penetrations conflicting with structural members
Architectural openings conflicting with lateral systems
Foundation coordination with site conditions and utilities
Connection detail completeness and constructability
Load path continuity across multiple floor plans
How Articulate Helps
Faster QA/QC for Structural Engineers
AI reviews your entire drawing set in hours instead of days. Structural Engineers get comprehensive drawing set qa/qc results without pulling senior staff off other projects.
Purpose-Built Construction AI
Articulate's AI is trained specifically for construction drawing analysis — not a generic AI tool repurposed for construction. This domain expertise gives structural engineers higher confidence in every detected issue.
Exact Issue Locations
Every detected issue includes the exact page and coordinates on your PDF drawings, plus severity ratings (high, medium, low) so structural engineers can prioritize their review time.
Actionable Results
Turn detected issues into formatted RFIs with one click. Push directly to Procore with issue details, code references, and page locations — no manual re-entry.
Example Issues Articulate Catches
Real-world issues detected by AI analysis, relevant to structural engineers doing drawing set qa/qc:
Load path discontinuity: transfer beam at level 3 not shown in framing plan — only in sections
Penetration conflict: 12" mechanical sleeve shown through grade beam where reinforcement is congested
Connection detail missing: moment connection at frame line 4 referenced but detail not provided
Foundation conflict: pile cap at grid A-1 conflicts with underground utility easement shown on civil
Lateral system interference: architectural full-height glazing conflicts with X-brace at grid C
Key Features
Purpose-built construction AI tailored for structural engineer drawing set qa/qc workflows
2D PDF analysis — no BIM models or 3D software required
10 issue categories covering coordination, code compliance, missing info, and more
Exact page locations and severity ratings (high/medium/low) for every issue
One-click RFI generation with Procore integration
Building code compliance checking (IBC, IRC, ADA, NEC, NFPA, and local codes)
Cross-discipline coordination between architectural, structural, MEP, civil, and fire protection
Drawing revision comparison to catch unclouded changes
When to Use QA/QC
Before issuing construction documents (IFC), before permit submission, or as part of regular design quality management.
