Your dedicated Structural Drafter brings production expertise at 50%+ lower cost than a US-based hire. They transform structural calculations into construction-ready drawing sets — framing plans, connections, foundation details, and rebar schedules — in your Revit or AutoCAD environment. Working under your licensed SE, they integrate directly into your project delivery pipeline, freeing your senior engineers for analysis and design judgment work.
Structural drafting is entirely digital and production-focused — making it ideal for dedicated remote work. Your Structural Drafter works in your Revit or AutoCAD environment during your US business hours, participates in coordination meetings, and produces sheets to your firm's standard templates. LATAM timezone overlap (0–3 hours behind EST/CST) ensures real-time communication.
Flexible arrangements to fit your capacity needs – dedicated individuals or scalable team setups.
Full-time (40h/week) or part-time (20h/week) Structural Drafter embedded in your team. Works in your Revit Structure or AutoCAD environment, follows your drawing standards, and delivers sheets to your CD schedule.
From ~$3,500/mo
Two or more Structural Drafters working in parallel for multi-building or high-volume projects requiring coordinated sheet production.
Custom — based on team size and scope
Specialists are vetted on the tools your team already uses.
Revit Structure
BIM-based structural modeling, 3D framing coordination, and construction document generation.
AutoCAD
2D structural drafting for traditional drawing workflows and detail sheet production.
ETABS / SAP2000
Structural analysis software for reviewing and converting design calculations into drawing layouts.
Tekla Structures
Detailed structural modeling and 3D coordination for complex steel and concrete structures.
Navisworks
Multi-discipline clash detection for structural coordination against architectural and MEP systems.
Bluebeam Revu
Redline markup, structural drawing review, and coordination comment tracking.
Typical outputs produced by a dedicated Structural Drafter for US teams.
Dedicated Structural Drafters start at approximately $3,500/month for full-time engagement (40h/week). Part-time (20h/week) and structural pod configurations are also available. Pricing varies based on experience level (Revit vs. AutoCAD primary workflow) and project building type complexity (low-rise, high-rise, industrial).
Final pricing depends on experience level, hours per week, and engagement model.

Common questions about hiring a Structural Drafter through LatAm Scalers.
A Structural Drafter produces construction documents for structural systems: framing plans, elevation views, connection details, foundation plans, rebar schedules, and structural notes. They work in Revit Structure or AutoCAD under the direction of your licensed Structural Engineer of Record, translating engineering calculations and design intent into construction-ready drawings.
Dedicated Structural Drafters we match you with are proficient in both Revit Structure for coordinated BIM environments and AutoCAD for traditional 2D production workflows — matched to your project delivery method.
Your licensed Structural Engineer of Record retains full design authority and stamp responsibility. Your dedicated Structural Drafter produces drawings and details under your engineer's direction, subject to your review and approval before any permit submission.
Structural Drafters coordinate through federated Revit models or linked AutoCAD files, running clash detection against architectural and MEP systems. They flag conflicts, flag proposed resolutions, and update drawings based on coordination outcomes — all under your structural engineer's direction.
US-based Structural Drafters typically cost $60,000–$90,000/year fully loaded. LATAM-based equivalents through LatAm Scalers start at approximately $3,500/month ($42,000/year) — a savings of 50–70% with no compromise on drafting quality or technical accuracy.
