Central Coast Structural Steel Drafting & 3D Scanning
Structural Steel Drafting & 3D Scanning – Central Coast NSW
Hamilton By Design delivers industry-grade structural steel drafting, detailing, and 3D laser scanning services across the Central Coast. We turn real-world conditions into accurate, fabrication-ready drawings for fabricators, engineers, builders and asset owners.
By pairing on-site 3D scanning (LiDAR) with detailed CAD modelling, we help reduce project risk, minimise site variations, and deliver buildable documentation that supports efficient fabrication and installation.

3D Laser Scanning – Scan To Steel
Hamilton By Design provides engineering-grade 3D laser scanning (LiDAR) across the Central Coast, capturing existing structures with millimetre accuracy for retrofit, extension, and brownfield work.
Why choose 3D scanning?
Rapid capture of existing buildings and plant
Millimetre-accurate point cloud data
Scan-to-CAD / BIM deliverables
Accurate tie-in verification before fabrication
Reduces onsite rework and redesign
Better coordination with services and trades
