Detailed Construction Documentation Provided for a Multi-Family Apartment Building
Introduction
Challenges Faced
- Concept plans provided in DWG format lacked sufficient detail for documentation.
- Tight turnaround of 6–7 business days for delivery.
- Need for complete compliance with older yet applicable codes:
- – 2000 International Building Code (IBC).
- – 2010 ADA Accessibility Guidelines (ADAAG).
- – 2009 ANSI A117.1
- Accessibility and egress path design required close attention to meet regulatory benchmarks.
- High risk of rework if documentation failed to meet the permit standards on first submission.
Approaches and Solutions
- Converted 2D DWG input into a comprehensive Revit 3D model.
- Focused on detailed modeling of accessibility elements and emergency exits.
- Verified all architectural components against 2000 IBC, ADAAG, and ANSI guidelines.
- Used internal QA processes to review model accuracy and compliance.
- Applied Gsource’s proprietary Revit templates to streamline documentation.
- Delivered final outputs in both editable Revit format and submission-ready PDFs.
Final Outcome
Gsource successfully delivered permit-ready construction documentation within 7 business days. The client received fully coordinated and code-compliant outputs, enabling a smooth path to permitting and project initiation.
