Your Detailer Let You Down.
We Can Step In.
Missed deadlines. No communication. Drawings full of errors. If your project is in crisis, Tectonix takes over fast — same-day response, honest assessment, phased takeover.
Common Rescue Situations
Which of These Sounds Familiar?
We've seen every version of this crisis. The details differ — the outcome doesn't have to.
Detailer Went Dark
No communication, missed deliverable windows, and a project that can't wait. You need someone to pick up the baton without losing another week.
Deadlines Already Blown
Your erection date is locked. The detailing isn't done. Every day of delay multiplies the cost — you need a team that understands schedule pressure.
Quality Failures Mid-Project
Drawings full of errors, connections that don't work, RFIs piling up. The current work can't go to fabrication. You need it fixed fast.
Capacity Collapse
Your detailer landed two other jobs and yours slipped to the back of the queue. You've been waiting weeks for drawings that should have shipped.
Our Rescue Process
How Tectonix Handles a Rescue
No reinvention. We assess what exists, salvage what's solid, and rebuild what isn't — starting with whatever has to go to fabrication first.
Rapid Intake — Same Day
Submit the rescue form. We respond within hours, not days. We ask for whatever is in hand: partial models, drawings, specs, any existing work.
Existing-Model Assessment
Our lead detailers review what's there. We identify what's salvageable, what needs to be rebuilt, and what the realistic path to completion looks like.
Phased Takeover
We take over in stages starting with your highest-priority sequences — erection-first members, long-lead pieces, and any items with RFI holds.
Honest Assessment
We Tell You What's Salvageable — Not What You Want to Hear
Some rescue projects have a solid foundation worth keeping. Others need to start over on the high-risk sequences. We'll tell you which is which before we start billing.
What We Often Salvage
- Existing Tekla or SDS/2 models with correct geometry
- Connection designs already reviewed by EOR
- Approved sequences and released drawings
- Bills of material that match fabricated pieces
- Grid and elevation setup already verified
What Typically Needs to Be Rebuilt
- Connection details that fail AISC or EOR criteria
- Sequences with wrong member marks or piece counts
- Models with geometry errors that propagate to every drawing
- Drawings with incorrect or missing dimensions
- Anchor bolt plans that don't match structural
