Construction Engineered.
OD3 Group is a structural steel detailing and digital construction specialist, with one digital thread from point cloud to fabricated, verified steel.
The digital thread
Follow one job from first scan to signed-off steel.
Each stage feeds the next from the same model. Tap through to see what happens, and who does it. This continuity is the whole point: one thread, no handoff gaps.
Stage 01 / 07
Capture
We scan the site or structure with a Trimble X7 and build a point cloud accurate to ±2mm: the single source of truth everything downstream is built on.
From model to steel
Modelled once. Built to fit, first time.

Featured project · SSE Arena LED Ribbon Support Package · Belfast · 2026
SSE Arena LED Ribbon Support Package
OD3 Group delivered a new LED ribbon support structure at the SSE Arena Belfast end to end, laser-scanning the exposed-steel bowl, engineering and detailing the steelwork, and setting it out on site so a 5-tonne package fitted first time in a venue that never stopped performing.

The advantage is the thread, and who holds it.
One partner, end to end
Survey, model, design, set-out and delivery under one roof, so there are no gaps to fall through between separate consultants.
Modelled once, built right
A single model carries from first scan to as-built sign-off. No re-keying between trades, no drift, no surprises on site.
±2mm precision
Laser-scanned reality in, robotic total-station set-out out, and a verified as-built record to close the loop.
PI-backed engineering
Connection design to Eurocode 3, signed off and covered by £1m of professional indemnity insurance.
Proven since 2012
Contracts delivered across the UK, EU, US and Australia, for fabricators, main contractors and architects alike.
Built on our own platform
We run the firm on software we built ourselves, so your job stays standardised, tracked and on record from first scan to sign-off.
Who holds the thread
One team, from first scan to signed-off steel.

New from OD3 · Software
Redpen: the platform we built to run our own firm.
Redpen brings AI-assisted estimating, client management and standardised delivery into a single system, so the whole job stays on the record, from the first enquiry to the fabricated steel. Now the platform for construction & fabrication firms, with cutting-edge, AI-led workflows that used to be out of reach for a detailing or fabrication office.
