An as-built drawing is prepared
during the process of undertaking a
renovation to an existing structure
and is typically the first phase of a new
design. These drawings are derived
from the measurements taken on-site
and lay the groundwork for the
schematic design and design
development phases. The typical
documentation developed includes:
• Floor Plans
• Exterior Elevations
The primary objective of this
phase is to develop a clearly
defined, feasible concept and to
present it in a form that is easily understood. The
feasibility of the project is mostly
contingent upon your budget and
items required to obtain building
permits. The typical documentation includes:
• Floor Plans
• Exterior Elevations
• Roof Plan
• Site Plan
• 3D Models
During this third phase, the design is
refined into a clear, coordinated set of
CAD drawings covering specific
aspects of the project. It’s at this stage
that the 3D renderings undergo a
more photo-realistic quality and the
overall presentation becomes clear.
It’s also the stage when the consultants,
such as surveyors, architects,
engineers, and builders are
on-boarded, if needed. (Additional
fees apply for consultants). The typical
documentation includes:
• Floor Plans
• Exterior Elevations
• Roof Plan
• Electrical Plan
• Reflected Ceiling Plan
• Interior Elevations
• Sections
• Site Plan
• 3D Models
