WHAT WE CAN DO
Site Plan Support Built Around the Actual Project
A manufacturer package usually describes the building itself, but the permitting authority still needs to know where the structure will sit on the property and how it relates to setbacks, access, utilities, drainage and other site conditions. The site plan bridges that gap and can be coordinated with foundation and structural drawings where required.
- Detached shop
- Residential metal garage
- Agricultural or pole barn
- RV or equipment storage
- Commercial metal building
- Warehouse or accessory building
TYPICAL SCOPE
What May Be Included
The final drawing package depends on the property, project type and reviewing jurisdiction.
Setbacks & Property Lines
Front, side and rear setbacks based on available zoning and survey information.
Driveway / Access
Vehicle access, aprons and circulation relevant to the project.
Utilities & Septic
Known utilities, well or septic information when supplied and applicable.
Impervious / Coverage Data
Lot coverage or impervious-area calculations when required by the jurisdiction.
Structural Coordination
Coordination with slab, foundation, anchor and manufacturer information when part of the permit set.
PERMIT DRAWING COORDINATION
More Than a Basic Plot Sketch
Our goal is to organize the site information so the drawing is easy for the owner, contractor and reviewing authority to understand. When the project requires more than a site plan, related permit disciplines can be coordinated as part of the larger package.
Site & Plot Planning
Property lines, setbacks, building placement, access, easements and other permit-relevant site information.
Architectural Coordination
Floor plans, elevations, roof plans, sections and related building sheets when the permit scope extends beyond the site.
Structural Coordination
Foundation, framing, connection and calculation coordination when structural design or engineering review is required.
Civil / MEP Support
Grading, drainage, utility, electrical, plumbing and HVAC coordination where applicable to the permit package.

QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions before a site-plan project begins.
Are manufacturer drawings enough for a metal building permit?+
Often not. Manufacturer drawings describe the building system, while the permit package may also require a site plan, foundation design and location-specific structural information.
Can you coordinate the slab and foundation?+
Yes, when structural or foundation design is part of the scope. Engineering review may be required depending on the jurisdiction.
Do you handle pole barns too?+
Yes. Pole barns and post-frame buildings can be supported when the property and project information are available.
Can the site plan show septic and well locations?+
Yes, when reliable septic or well information is supplied and those features are relevant to the site layout.
Do you provide PE review?+
Professional engineering review, signature or seal can be coordinated where required and separately included in the scope.
