ABOUT
Novus.
Latin for "New."
Fresh Thinking. Uncompromising Steel.
NovusSteel was founded in 2022 with one belief: where exceptional engineers come from should never determine the opportunities they can create. Built on 15+ years of structural steel expertise, we created the engineering partner we believed fabricators deserved.
"We exist to build exceptional engineers who deliver exceptional projects through leadership, ownership, and accountability. Because great projects are built by great people."
What began with a single engineer has grown into a team of 45+ engineers and detailers, contributing to 410+ structural steel projects across North America in just four years, ranging from 100-ton specialty projects to 1,500+ ton structural steel developments. Through end-to-end structural steel engineering support, we help clients reduce risk, improve coordination, accelerate fabrication, and deliver projects with confidence.
When challenges arise—as they always do—you need a partner who stays engaged. We listen first, collaborate closely, solve problems proactively, and help keep your project moving forward. Because our responsibility doesn’t end when your project is awarded—it ends when it’s successfully delivered, creating lasting value for your business and the communities it serves.
To become the engineering partner every fabricator wants on their most important project.
- Leadership
- Ownership
- Accountability
These aren’t just values on a wall—they shape how every engineer thinks, communicates, and solves problems.
Supporting projects delivered for some of North America's most recognized owners, contractors, and industrial organizations through our clients.

Our Services
Structural Steel Services Built for Fabricators
From bid-stage quantities to the last piece of steel in the field, NovusSteel helps fabricators move projects from estimating to fabrication and erection with greater certainty, stronger communication, and complete accountability.
Win better projects with accurate takeoffs, quantity surveys, vendor scope identification, and revision support.
Fabrication-ready shop drawings, erection drawings, assembly drawings, bolt summaries, and CNC outputs developed in Tekla Structures.
Comprehensive detailing for stairs, railings, embed plates, platforms, canopies, ladders, and architectural metals.
Connection calculations, PE stamping, coordinated details, and practical RFI solutions.
Coordinated Tekla models supporting clash detection, quantity extraction, construction review, and CNC production.
Import-ready production data aligned with your fabrication workflow.
Real-time model sharing, markups, coordination, and issue tracking across project teams.
DSTV, DXF, NC files, and machine-ready production outputs directly from approved models.
For larger and more complex projects, our team provides on-site coordination and field support alongside fabricators to help resolve issues quickly and maintain project momentum.
The Partner You'll Remember.
Not because we issued drawings.
Because your RFIs were answered before they became delays.
Because your shop kept moving.
Because your project team always knew where things stood.
Because when the pressure increased, we stayed engaged.
WHY NOVUSSTEEL
Every Firm Promises Accuracy. We Promise Something Harder.
Accuracy is expected.
Ownership is rare.
Structural steel projects do not fail because of a single missed dimension. They fail when responsibilities become unclear, communication breaks down, and problems remain unanswered.
NovusSteel was built to eliminate those gaps.
- Complete ownership.
- From takeoff to installation.
- No gaps.
- No handoffs.
- No excuses.
Winning work starts long before detailing begins.
Every stair, embed plate, moment connection, and vendor scope identified before fabrication begins.
We adapt to your workflow.
Every RFI includes practical recommendations and constructability considerations.
Dedicated project manager. One point of contact. One accountable leader. One team.
Every model and drawing is developed with fabrication and erection in mind.
From RFIs and fabrication support to field coordination and final closeout, we stay engaged.
On-site coordination, fabrication shop visits, milestone reviews, and erection assistance for complex projects.
Most firms deliver drawings. We deliver accountability.
From the first bid quantity to the final piece of erected steel, NovusSteel remains responsible for the outcome.
One team. One responsibility. One partner from bid to installation.
Powered by Industry-Leading Technology
Our engineering workflow integrates leading structural steel software to improve coordination, eliminate workflow disruptions, and accelerate fabrication.
