Construction and permit set drawings

MASONORA prepares construction and permit set drawings: complete, cross-referenced packages of plans, elevations, sections, details and schedules, drawn to your jurisdiction’s code edition and submission checklist. Sets are ready for your licensed professional to review and seal, and detailed enough for contractors to price and build without guessing.

Questions answered

What is the difference between a permit set and a construction set?

A permit set contains what the authority needs to confirm compliance. A construction set contains everything the builder needs to build, including more detailed sections, details, schedules and specifications. Many projects issue one set that serves both purposes. We will recommend the right level of detail for your procurement route.

How do you make sure the set gets approved?

We start from the authority’s own submission checklist and code edition. Each sheet is checked against that list, and the set is cross-referenced so reviewers can find what they need. If comments come back, we revise and resubmit as part of the scope agreed on your quote.

Can you start from a design another architect has done?

Yes. We regularly take developed designs from architects, designers and builders and document them as a permit or construction set. We flag anything in the design that conflicts with code before drawing it up.

08FAQ

Construction & Permit Sets: frequently asked questions

Do you seal or stamp permit drawings?

No. Your licensed architect or engineer reviews and seals the drawings where a seal is required. We prepare the set for their review.

Which jurisdictions do you prepare permit sets for?

We prepare sets for the USA, Australia, the UK, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Pakistan. Tell us the authority and we confirm the code edition and checklist.

Do you handle authority comments?

Yes. Responding to plan-check or authority comments and resubmitting is included in the scope we confirm on your quote.

What do you need to start?

A design (sketches, PDF, CAD or Revit), the site address or jurisdiction, and any survey or existing drawings. We list anything missing in the scope.

How long does a permit set take?

It depends on the building’s size and complexity. We confirm the delivery date on the quote before you commit.
