What does a Professional Building Designer Do?
The Professional Building Designer provides a client with design services for a proposed residence or building, ranging from the initial concept to complete working drawings and specifications that will comply with all applicable building codes, covenants and restrictions.
The type of projects that a Professional Building Designer undertakes is varied and depends on the experience of the individual designer, and may consist of residential projects, both single family and multi-unit, or commercial projects as permitted by the architectural statutes of each state.
Working closely with the client, the Professional Building Designer can provide design solutions that respond to the particular needs and requirements of each client.
A Professional Building Designer may supply or arrange for additional services such as structural or mechanical consultants, or provide assistance in selecting contractors and overseeing construction. These additional services are subject to the policies and services of the individual design Firm you have hired to complete your project.
Professional Services
Riverside offers professional house plans that are designed to overcome unforeseen building expenses during the construction phase. All drawings are cross examined for 3-D compatibility to ensure that stairs and other main features work as planned. All our plans have Details and Sections that are self explanatory and that complement the other sheets and documents.
Material Take-Off
Accurate material take-offs are available upon request. The Take-off are provided in a written report format or as an Microsoft Excel Spread Sheet. The materials lists are broken down by category, listing a description of each individual item and a quantity count. We also give you square footages for sheet rock, roofing materials, paint and flooring. Having a professional material take-off ensures accurate bidding from competing contractors and sub contractors. This also levels the playing field between the bidders so that you get comparable estimates from each bidder.
All Our Designs Meet Local Building Codes
Riverside Designs strives to provide construction documents that are detailed, and that provide a clear and concise representation of the project at hand. Our plans are designed to meet the Uniform Building Code. In addition, if your project is located within a municipality that has enacted other local or city building codes those guidelines will also be followed.
