Plan Stack Reference — 45-Sheet Construction Document Set

Sheet Organization

Architectural BEFORE Structural — design drives structure, not the other way around.

| Discipline | Code | Sheets | Description | |-----------|------|--------|-------------| | General | G | 3 | Cover, index, life safety | | Survey | V | 1 | Boundary & topographic survey | | Civil | C | 3 | Site plan, grading, utilities | | Architectural | A | 20 | Plans, elevations, sections, details, schedules | | Structural | S | 8 | Foundation, framing, steel connections | | Interior | I | 3 | Kitchen, bath, special room elevations | | Mechanical | M | 2 | HVAC plans | | Plumbing | P | 3 | Plumbing plans + riser diagram | | Electrical | E | 4 | Power, lighting, site electrical | | Telecom | T | 0 | Future (smart home, low voltage) | | TOTAL | | 45+ | |

Customization Breakdown

| Type | Count | % | Description | |------|-------|---|-------------| | Template | 15 | 33% | Identical every project (ML Steel DfD details, general notes) | | Parametric | 18 | 40% | Adapt from curriculum data (floor plans, elevations, framing) | | Custom | 12 | 27% | Unique per project (demo plan, kitchen, baths) |

Phase Delivery

| Phase | Sheets | Priority | |-------|--------|----------| | Phase 1 (MVP) | 14 | Cover, site plan, floor plan, 4 elevations, 2 sections, wall section, structural notes, foundation, framing, steel connections | | Phase 2 | 16 | Demo plan, 2nd floor, roof plan, stair detail, schedules, foundation details, roof framing | | Phase 3 | 15 | RCP, enlarged rooms, interior elevations, all MEP, electrical |

DrawingData Integration

Every curriculum answer populates a VerifiedField that feeds BOTH:

  • Sheet readiness — fields fill → status moves from gap → draft → review → verified
  • Spec sections — same data populates CSI 3-part specifications
  • This dual-feed design means homeowners never answer a question that doesn't build both their drawings AND their specification book simultaneously.
