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.

We have used Peer Review on several of our most recent projects and found it to be a value added service to our clients. John Weaver’s experience, knowledge and understanding of the construction process makes him a valuable member of our construction team. His review eliminates misunderstandings, discrepancies and coordination errors between the design disciplines.

We have found the services, provided by John Weaver, of Peer Review, to be necessary and valuable. When the redline comments are presented to the construction and design team, it generates dialog to be pro-active and solves issues before they become problems. We look forward to a continued relationship with Peer Review on our fuure projects.

If you have any questions, please call me directly, and I will describe our success in greater detail.
