Our firm’s Construction Documents are second to none. The quality and level of detail actually surpass most commercial projects. If you want quality in residential design, you have found it. The process begins as a further expansion of the approved Design Development phase of our work. As in previous phases, we then add additional detail, research and specifics.
Dimensions are checked and finalized; work is coordinated between disciplines, our Quality Control (QC) checklists are checked a last time, to insure that the coordination and proper features are added to the drawings and specifications. Site Plans are cross checked with floor plans. Floor Plans are checked with Elevations. Cabinets are checked with electrical.
Many numbered notes are added on the drawings, in our unique and professional Numbered Drawing Notes columns, and cross-coordinated with the specifications, to which many of them refer, to assist contractors in understanding how the drawings link to the specifications.
Building Sections are compared to each other and the other drawings. Finish Schedules and Door Schedules are created and checked and reviewed with the Clients. Wall Sections are coordinated and notations navigating to them placed on the Building Sections.
Details are created and cross-coordinated to the other drawings.
Specifications are edited for this particular project and reviewed with the Clients.
After receiving Client approval, PDFs of the project Construction Documents are sent into the Cloud, where they can be downloaded by Clients and contractors for the nest phase: Bidding.
