dimensions worked out
It's really the same as just dimensions, maybe with a tad more accent on the verb/activity involved, hence 'detailed design with all dimensions worked out' (or worked out dimensions).

: or just 'dimensions'. Van Dale translates the Dutch 'dimensioneren' into the English verb 'dimension'. So basically, there is no magic here :-)

: Careful! "dimension" in English means "maat" in Dutch. I would recommend "sizes".

dimensie(onering) = afmeting = dimension = afmeting, maat, grootte, omvang, dimensie etc. Dimensions is sometimes more abstract/summary concept for 'sizes'.

dimensions specified
dimensioneren = to specify the dimensions of
On the basis of these specifications we will come up with a detailed design meeting the dimensions specified in every way.
Op basis van die specificatie werken wij een gedetailleerd ontwerp uit met alle dimensioneringen.
Explanation
.... met alle dimensioneringen
.... met alle (in de specificatie) op/aangegeven afmetingen
.....dat exact voldoet aan alle (in de specificatie) op/aangegeven afmetingen (in three dimensional space, as if each of it's surface points had been plotted on the x, y and z axis)
so I believe that, when he uses this word "dimensioneringen", the speaker refers to what has been DONE in the specifications
in these specifications all the object's dimensions HAVE BEEN specified
(VDale) dimensioneren = de afmetingen bepalen of vaststellen van = to specify or determine the dimensions of
