A Qnnect Case Study
The Seattle-Tacoma International Airport needed to expand its terminal to accommodate rapid passenger growth. The project's challenge was that the Engineer of Record initially mandated specific steel connections, which could restrict fabrication efficiency and schedule. The fabricator, Supreme Group (Canron), advocated for the vendor Qnect to be used for connection design and optimization to overcome this.
Qnect was engaged to engineer and optimize the steel joints. Using the provided reactions, Qnect completed the connection engineering for the model in just one hour. This solution substantially accelerated the project schedule and generated significant cost savings for the fabricator, demonstrating the value of Qnect's delegated connection design approach.
