Quick Tips

  • Construction Drawing scales and matchlines should be the same between disciplines…
  • Elevation conventions should be coordinated during Design Development. Civil should be have the true elevation (above sea level), and conventions for the ground floor and those above and below grade, should reference the Civil drawing (for true elevation) and be consistent between Architectural, Civil, Landscape, and other disciplines.
  • Take care to coordinate plumbing inverts, underground utility lines, and drain elevations between Civil, Landscape and M/E/P. Select a discipline that will be responsible for dimensioning drain locations and setting elevations. On Podium type structures, coordinate drain locations and waterproofing details with the Structural Engineer as well as supporting beams may need sleeving to maintian proper slope for above-grade storm lines.

As a developer, your concerns are always quality, schedule and budget. Having a third-party peer review is a way of getting at least a small amount of peace of mind on those issues. John Weaver worked with us on our MidCity Lofts condominium project as a peer review consultant and participated in a team review of the project documents. With a high degree of knowledge, thoroughness and professionalism, John helped not only to bring the document coordination in focus, but also to suggest solutions where appropriate.

I would recommend John to any developer wanting to improve the project delivery process and gain an additional measure of peace of mind.
