Construction documents (CD) is the final stage of the design process and the beginning of the construction process. Put simply, construction drawings offer contractors a graphic representation of what to build and how to build it. It’s a key transitional segment of our work that can make or break the future work on the building site. That’s why our firm prioritizes the creation of sound and in-depth CDs. We ensure complete accuracy while simultaneously meeting strict time deadlines and maintaining tight budgets.
Some of the basic construction drawings involved in the CD phase are:
- Floor plans
- Roof plans
- Foundation plans
- Elevations
- Sections
- Window/Door schedules
You can depend on our architectural staff to develop a coordinated set of construction drawings. Our CDs will function as the general contractor’s compass throughout construction and, ultimately, play an integral role in the compliant, safe erection of your new-build.
Drafting Construction Drawings
At this point in the design process, the four walls and everything in between is finalized. Design changes should be minimal, if there are any. Here, we take your complete designs and translate them into blueprints of the foundation, floors, and roof. We consult with engineers to denote every minute component’s details, including:
- Location
- Name
- Size and dimensions
- Shape and form
- Other details
With this information in hand, the contracting crew’s assembly task is clear and straightforward.

The Making of Construction Drawings
