What is a Final Construction Drawing?
Final construction drawings are the official, detailed plans that guide the actual building of a project. They are the last, approved version of all drawings before or during construction and include all the specifications a builder needs to follow.
Final construction drawings may reference:
- Structural engineering drawings
- Civil engineering drawings
- Electrical, hydraulic, or mechanical plans
- Specifications or schedules
How Do I Obtain This Document?
- A building designer usually prepares the DA set and the CC/CDC set.
- Contact the designer via email or phone and request a PDF copy. Ask specifically for “final construction drawings” rather than approval plans- they often differ, especially after council conditions.
