Civil drafting and plan production

Clean, consistent drawings are what carry a design through review and into construction. We draft in your layers, your title block, and your sheet numbering. That is what lets a prime hand us a package of sheets and get back drawings that look like the rest of the set, on the date they were promised.

For agencies and primes

• Plan and profile sheets

  Roads, lots, and accesses, with both horizontal and vertical geometry.

• Cross sections and surface models

  Typical and specific sections, backed by a model that shows low points and where water will flow.

• Base maps and design markups

  On the Traffic Signal Interconnect Project for Marion County we produced the base map and base plans and drafted the Lancaster, Silverton, and Cordon leg design markups.

• Traffic control plans

  Including temporary pedestrian access routes.

• Exhibits

  Internal design concepts and modeling results, developed further for public meetings or other departments.

• Overflow near a deadline

  A package of sheets taken on and returned to your standard on your schedule.

For owners and builders

• Sketches to scaled drawings

  Hand sketches of lots, plans, and profiles become precise CAD drawings.

• Additional views

  Elevations from angles no one has sketched yet, when the reviewer or the builder needs them.

• Floor plans with footings and foundations

  And the details that make them buildable.

• Construction details

  To the current building code and the local amendments that apply.

Public works drawings are often sensitive while a project is underway, so we do not post them. With the client's permission we can share examples by email or in person.
