Drafters often collaborate with other disciplines to incorporate their specialized drawings and plans into the overall design.
Construction Drawings
We offer drafting services that involve the creation of detailed construction drawings, including floor plans, elevations, sections, and site plans. These drawings provide a comprehensive visual representation of the building design and are essential for obtaining permits and for construction.
AutoCAD (Computer-Aided Design) Drafting
Most drafting is done using AutoCAD software, which allows for precise and efficient drafting. AutoCAD drafting enables easy revisions, accurate measurements, and the creation of 2D drawings.
Structural Engineering
Integrating structural engineering into the drafting process ensures that designs are visually appealing, safe, and durable. It also enhances the structure’s stability, addressing factors like load distribution and material integrity and environmental factors like wind, soil, and seismic stability.
Detailed Drawings
Detailed drawings are often required to specify construction details such as wall assemblies, structural connections, and material finishes. These drawings ensure that the building is constructed correctly and to the required standards.
As-Built Drawings
Existing structures without any drawings may require AS-Built Drawings. Our drafting services may be employed to create as-built drawings, which document the actual dimensions and features of the constructed building. These drawings are valuable for future renovations and maintenance.
Site Plans
We offer drafting services that can produce site plans that show the location of the building on the property, access points, parking areas, landscaping, and other site-specific details.
3D Renderings and Visualizations
Some drafting services offer the creation of 3D renderings and visualizations, allowing clients to better understand the design and appearance of the building before construction.
Code Compliance
Our drafters ensure that construction drawings comply with local building codes and regulations. This is crucial for obtaining the necessary permits and approvals.
Coordination with Other Disciplines
When required, we will outsource any structural engineering, so the engineer can create their stamped drawings and calcs, that are required for permit.
Building Permit Assistance
Our team of draftsman follow the International Residential Code/International Building Code, Florida Building Code and all City specific codes for your area. We provide quality drafting in a timely manner, with a goal of getting permits approved with the first submission.
