I’m putting up an 8 ft × 20 ft informational sign beside a highway and need the frame engineered before I start cutting steel. My concept is straightforward: two identical panels built from 2×4 cold-rolled steel studs, then welded back-to-back with a length of square tubing and angle-iron stiffeners. What I’m looking for is a complete fabrication package that a local shop—and the county permit office—can rely on. That means every cut length, weld symbol, and bracing detail clearly shown, along with proof that the frame can handle highway wind loads without excessive deflection. If you prefer to validate the design with quick FEA or hand calculations, include the numbers right on the drawing set. Deliverables • 3D model (STEP or native SolidWorks/Inventor) • Fully dimensioned shop drawings in PDF and DWG, including cut list and weld call-outs • Brief structural check summarizing loads, assumptions, and safety factors I’ll supply any site specifics (post attachment, footing details, signage skin weight) you need as soon as we start. Let me know your software of choice and an estimated turnaround once you’ve reviewed the scope.

Hi, I understand you need a complete fabrication package for an 8 × 20 ft highway billboard frame, including a detailed 3D model, fully dimensioned shop drawings, weld call-outs, cut lists, and a structural verification to ensure the assembly can safely withstand wind loads without excessive deflection. I’m a Mechanical Design and Simulation Engineer with 15+ years of experience in SolidWorks and Ansys, specializing in 2D/3D modeling, structural design, prototyping, CFD, and FEA. I’ve worked on welded steel structures and load-bearing assemblies where manufacturing-ready drawings and structural validation were critical for fabrication and installation. My approach is to optimize the frame for strength, stiffness, and ease of fabrication, then validate the design with structural calculations and FEA before delivering a complete workshop-ready package. Could you share the expected post configuration and attachment method for the sign? Once I review those details, I can quickly develop an efficient structural layout and load path for the frame.
