Steel Project Index / SDS2 Reports
The SDS2 Report Library · every template free

Reports SDS2 should ship — free, verified, ready to run.

SDS2 gives you 21 bolt reports and zero saw lists. We build the missing ones, check every field path against the verified SDS2 catalog, and give them away. Most-used first.

Cut list grouped by section size and grade, with stock-length grouping and drop/remnant footage. Formatted for a man at a saw, not for an office.

Qty, mark, description, overall length × depth × width, weight each and total, surface area each and total, finish, delivery batch — filtered to galvanized pieces only.

Pieces by load with a weight rollup per truck, overall dimensions for permit checks, and a running total against capacity.

Submaterial grouped for gathering, in the order a fitter actually picks it — not the order the model stores it.

Weld List

FREE

Welds by assembly with size, type, length, and location — with an optional NDT column for inspection sign-off.

Short exception reports: duplicate piecemarks, members with no connection, orientation outliers, bolt edge-distance flags. Each prints only problems — a clean run is a blank page.

Sheet list with revision level, date, drawn by, and approval status — plus a revision history table.

Shear studs and loose hardware by member and sequence — counts, sizes, and totals, so field-installed items don't get lost between shop and site.

Where every submaterial goes — "12 off p1012: 6 in B1, 4 in B3, 2 in C5" — so a shorted part is found before it holds up fit-up.

Checks the fields the KISS 1.1 standard requires before you export — so the fab shop's import doesn't bounce.

Custom AI reports

Don't see yours? Describe it.

Describe the report you need in plain English and the AI generator writes the Report Writer file for you — built on the same verified field catalog as the library.
