### Review of shop drawings by the Engineer of Record shall not relieve the fabricator of responsibility for dimensional accuracy, fit, or quantity. {note}

### Lead times shorter than six weeks are appropriate only for small, repetitive, or fast-track projects; complex geometry and seismic-force-resisting systems typically require eight to ten weeks to allow connection design coordination. {note}

## Default material grades for hot-rolled structural steel are established below; these reflect the most common selections and shall apply unless the structural drawings specify otherwise. {note}

# Delegated Connection Design {toc}
## Connections may be designed by the fabricator's engineer from forces shown by the Engineer of Record (delegated design), or detailed completely by the Engineer of Record; the responsibility model shall be established before bidding. {note}

## The Engineer of Record shall provide the connection design forces, including any required and available strengths, on the structural drawings where connection design is delegated.
## Full Engineer-of-Record connection design is typically reserved for seismic moment frames and other critical connections; delegated design is the common model for standard gravity and braced-frame connections. The specification shall state explicitly whether the delegated connection design requires a licensed engineer's seal in the jurisdiction and who serves as the engineer of record for the connection design, so that the responsibility boundary is not left to an RFI. Detailed connection design rules, bolting methods, and weld acceptance criteria are specified in [[sync/structural-steel-connections]]; this section governs only the responsibility model and the submittal of the resulting calculations. {note}

## A non-conformance is any material, fabrication, or erection condition that does not meet the contract documents or the referenced standards; the disposition process shall be established before fabrication begins so that the first out-of-tolerance piece does not trigger an undefined dispute. {note}
