Our Process

From idea to engineered plans, we make every step smoother.

1. Concept

Every vision starts with an idea. We help it take shape.

Whether it’s a sketch on paper or a vision in progress, we join in early. Our team listens, explores options, and helps shape ideas into practical, buildable concepts. Early collaboration saves time, reduces costs, and keeps your project moving forward.

2. Design

​From first sketches to final plans, we keep it simple. 

We start with preliminary designs and budget pricing to create a clear framework for your project. From there, our team refines details, materials, and drawings to align with your goals, saving time and effort.

3. Engineering

We handle the details so you don’t have to.

Engineering should feel like collaboration, not complication. Our licensed team transforms design intent into stamped, code-compliant drawings while solving challenges with clarity and precision. Clear communication and practical solutions keep your project on schedule and aligned with your vision.

4. Fabrication

Built right the first time.

Our fabrication process is built for precision and reliability. With AISC & AITC certified facilities, AWS certified welders, robotic steel cutting, automated sandblasting, and a five-stage powder coat system, we deliver consistent quality. Prefabrication reduces on-site headaches and ensures your structure is ready to perform.


5. Delivery & Support

We don’t just ship it. We see it through.

From shop to site, we coordinate every detail so your structure arrives safely and on schedule. Our prefabricated systems simplify installation, while our team remains available for questions and support. The result is a smoother project with fewer surprises, letting you focus on the big picture.

6. Partnership

Built on collaboration, grounded in precision.

Every project is a collaboration, and we’re here as your partner. From concept to completion, our role is to align details, streamline communication, and ensure your vision is built with precision. With Anchor Design Works, you gain a partner who values design integrity, performance, and craftsmanship—so you can focus on what you do best.
