The team at Hamilton By design offer the following structural drafting services
Existing Conditions Documentation
Documenting the existing conditions of a structure is the precursor to design in a building project, and gathering accurate information is critical. Understanding the importance of precise building information, we carefully take physical field measurements which are then computerized as CAD drawings for our clients’ sebsequent design usability. Existing conditions documentation includes, but is not limited to; floor plans, ceiling plans, elevations, and sections.
As-Built Drawings
Following the completion of construction we verify, field measure, and record the as-built conditions as computerized CAD drawings. The as-built drawings are compiled to reflect the current building conditions for any changes made to the floor plans, ceiling plans, elevations, sections, and details which deviate from the original contract and/or buildings department approved documents.
Paper to CAD Conversion
Using your hard copy blueprints, sketches, and/or hand drafted drawings; we convert the paper documents into digitized CAD drawings, incorporating your standard layering conventions, line weights, dimensions, and title blocks if needed. The paper to CAD conversion is manually generated in order to produce a computerized document that is dimensionally accurate to the original.
Design Consulting
Working directly with our clients, we assist in the schematic design, design development, and planning of new construction or renovation projects in accordance with local building and municipal codes. The design is finalized as a computerized CAD document that can be revised and updated as needed by the client.
