Intel CUB.2 in Qiryat Gat, Israel is a commercial steel detailing project supporting one of Intel’s development and manufacturing environments. Moldtek detailed 4,632 tons of main and secondary steel across nearly 24 sequences on a compressed 15-week schedule. What made it demanding wasn’t the tonnage; it was the geometry — sloped framing zones and heavy members with slope-moment connections, worked out in close coordination with the fabricator and the connection designer, with senior staff reviewing the critical zones throughout.

The complication with Intel CUB.2 was geometry and connections under a deadline. Sloped framing zones, heavy member interfaces, misc. steel, and slope moment connections all had to be detailed accurately — and simplified where they were most critical — inside a compressed 15-week programme.
Accuracy had to hold through the angled framing regions, where a small geometry error compounds down the line.
Large member conditions and their interfaces had to stay clear and buildable.
The required connection information had to be incorporated early, not bolted on late.
Critical areas were simplified and field concerns resolved in coordination with the fabricator.
Critical zones received additional senior-review attention rather than a single pass.

The connection designer’s information was incorporated early, not bolted on after modeling.
Coordinated the critical areas with the fabricator to simplify them and resolve field concerns.
Sloped-framing and slope-moment-connection zones went through repeated senior review before reaching shop drawings.
Detailing risk reduced, constructability improved, and the critical connection packages kept on track.
Controlled review cycles with senior review concentrated on the critical zones are what kept a fast-track package constructible instead of trading accuracy for speed.
The frame was detailed on Moldtek’s standard toolchain and delivered against relevant structural codes, so angled geometry and heavy connections released fabrication-ready.
Balancing speed, constructability, and review discipline translated a 4,632-ton package into fabrication-ready output.
Clear scope execution for a 4,632-ton steel package.
Strong coordination with the fabricator and the connection designer.
Attention to the sloped framing and the critical connection zones, delivered fast-track.
