We frequently collaborate with builders, architects, and general contractors to provide clients with the best possible outcomes for your projects. Our expertise when working with these partners is the production of structural plan sets. Here is a breakdown of the plans we contribute.
When we work with these industry partners, we often will provide the following documents to complete their plan sets; framing plans, foundation plans, section views (if required), and construction details. These will be necessary for the permitting process prior to construction.
Structural Plan Set Documents
Framing Plan
Each floor will require a framing plan. Structural framing will show in the framing plan and will feature the beams, columns, joists, headers, lintels, bearing walls, trusses, and rafters. It will also show the floor, roof, and wall sheathing.
Foundation Plan
The foundation plan will show the footings of your structure, caissons, floor slabs, retaining walls, basement walls, and stem walls interactions with your foundation. It will provide insights on the concrete and masonry holding up the structure in the soil.
Section Views
To dive into the details of your project, our engineer plan set will include section views which is a dissected view of structural elements of your home or building.
Construction Details
The details are an essential part of your construction documents because it shows how different structural elements will interact. For example, it will provide the details for your framing connections, or foundation.
