Basic review packages for civil or architectural plans
The client will be asked to provide pdf files of the floor plans or site plans. The architectural sheets required may include an overall floor plan showing accessible routes and individual unit plans. The civil plans would include an accessible route plan, detailed grading plan and spot elevation plans. We will review these plans to verify compliance with ADA, FHA and ANSI A117.1 guidelines and any areas that are found to be non-compliant will be numbered. An Excel spreadsheet will be generated with line items corresponding to the numbered areas on the plan, providing the details of non-compliance. This information can then be sent to your design professional for revision and/or correction.
Advanced review packages for civil or architectural plans
This review includes the items listed in the basic package, but in addition to the numbering on the pdf, the deficiency items will be annotated on the plan sheets. This is a much more detailed review that will show the reasons for deficiency on the plan sheet. These items may include, but are not limited to excessive sloping, missing required items and insufficient clear floor spaces.
