Steel Detailing for Architectural Metalwork | Precision Staircases, Balustrades & Canopies – Restoric
The process of steel detailing for architectural metalwork begins with the collection of comprehensive information from architectural drawings, structural plans, and project specifications. Our team closely collaborates with architects, engineers, and fabricators to gather essential data, ensuring that every aspect of the steelwork design is accurately understood. We use advanced software such as Advance Steel to create detailed 3D models that represent the architectural metalwork, including staircases, balustrades, canopies, and other custom steel elements. These digital models are meticulously developed, taking into account factors such as material specifications, structural load requirements, and aesthetic design features. The result is a clear and precise model that seamlessly integrates into the broader building design, ready for fabrication.
The output of the steel detailing process includes fully detailed fabrication drawings, erection plans, and material lists. These documents provide fabricators and installers with the exact measurements, joint details, welding instructions, and assembly guidelines necessary for the construction of the metal components. The advantages of architectural steel detailing are numerous: it reduces errors and rework on-site, speeds up fabrication, ensures structural integrity, and guarantees that all components meet British Standards and Eurocodes. Additionally, the 3D models facilitate early detection of design issues, improving overall project efficiency and reducing costs. By offering precision-driven, coordinated detailing, Restoric helps ensure a smooth transition from design to construction, delivering high-quality, durable steelwork with minimal delays.

Staircase detailing is a critical aspect of architectural design and steel detailing, ensuring both functionality and safety within a building. At Restoric, we focus on creating precise fabrication drawings for staircases, from straight flights to spiral and curved designs, based on detailed architectural and structural plans. Our team takes into account key factors such as the stair pitch, tread depth, and riser height, ensuring that all elements conform to UK regulations. The Building Regulations 2010 (Part K) and the UK’s Approved Document K govern the safety and design of stairs, handrails, and landings. These regulations specify requirements for stair width, headroom clearance, and the strength of handrails, ensuring accessibility and safety for all users.
The advantage of precise staircase detailing is not only aesthetic but also compliance with health and safety standards. For example, riser heights should typically range between 150mm and 220mm, while tread depths should be at least 250mm to avoid tripping hazards. Handrails must be continuous and at a height of between 900mm and 1000mm to provide support. In commercial and public buildings, additional requirements such as non-slip surfaces and visibility of steps are also crucial. By adhering to these standards, we ensure that our staircase designs are both compliant with UK regulations and tailored to the specific needs of each project, whether residential, commercial, or industrial. Restoric’s attention to these details helps mitigate potential legal and safety risks while ensuring an aesthetically pleasing, functional final product.
Balustrade Detailing Services | UK Regulations & Custom Steel Designs – Restoric
Balustrade detailing is an essential aspect of both the aesthetic and functional design of a building, ensuring safety, compliance, and visual appeal. At Restoric, we provide expert detailing services for steel balustrades, whether for staircases, balconies, or terraces, ensuring precision and compliance with UK regulations. Our team utilises advanced 3D modelling and CAD software to create detailed fabrication drawings, taking into account specific project requirements, such as material selection, height, spacing of bars, and handrail design. Balustrades must adhere to the Building Regulations Part K and Approved Document K, which stipulate the height of balustrades (typically a minimum of 900mm for domestic and 1100mm for public spaces) and the spacing between vertical balusters (no more than 100mm apart to prevent gaps large enough for a child to pass through).
The key advantage of meticulous balustrade detailing is the balance between safety and design flexibility. Our designs not only comply with safety standards, ensuring structural integrity and preventing falls, but also allow for customisation based on architectural aesthetics. Whether it’s sleek glass balustrades, traditional wrought iron designs, or modern stainless steel systems, Restoric’s team ensures all elements are detailed to perfection. By complying with UK building codes, we ensure that all balustrades are safe, durable, and ready for quick installation, contributing to a smooth project flow and compliance with local building regulations.
