Plan Content

In by Andy Bozeman

PLANS are delivered as PDF files: The Final plan is provided as a set of PDF files, which will be emailed or uploaded to you. You will use the PDF files to print the copies needed for construction, according to the Plan-Use License.

The Final Plans will include the following ( if applicable) .
1.Site Plan. Based on the survey you will provide.
2.Specifications ( aka Description of Materials ) Based on standard construction codes and practices.
3.Room Finish Schedule. Based on information you will provide
4.Floor Plan(s) including dimensioned wall locations; openings, electrical fixtures & appliances, plumbing fixtures, construction notes.
5.No Cabinet Elevations for Kitchen, baths, and other cabinetry are : In these modern times, cabinet suppliers use computers to prepare their own drawings. Those suppliers include charges for cabinet drawings in the price of the delivered cabinetry. It doesn’t make sense for you to pay me and the cabinet suppliers twice for the same thing. Therefore, I do not include cabinet drawings in my plans. If you must have cabinet drawings, extra charges will be added.
6.Exterior Elevations. At least five views, including Front, Rear, Left Side, Right Side, and the overhead Roof diagram. For inside courtyards and areas not seen from one of the typical five views, other views will be added as needed for no additional charge.
7.Foundation Plan based on soil information that you must provide.
8.Floor System Diagram for multi-story or crawlspace designs. This is be used to coordinate space and installation requirements for the floor framer, plumbing, and HVAC systems.
9.Framing Details and Cross Sections as needed.
10.HVAC Duct Route Diagram(s) : HVAC System installers normally prefer to plan duct work installations themselves. Therefore, I do not include dedicated HVAC drawings in my plans. If you must have HVAC drawings, extra charges will be added.
11.Building Code Compliance Certification and Energy Code Compliance Certification for FHA, USDA, and VA financed projects, if required by your local regulatory authority or mortgage source.
