Colorado PE Review And Seal For Structural Drawings

Structural drawings often need a licensed Professional Engineer to review, verify, and seal the design before permit submission. For Colorado projects, this review helps confirm that the drawings, calculations, load paths, and structural details meet applicable building code and engineering requirements.

Code-Based Review

Colorado projects must follow the building codes adopted by the local jurisdiction. Depending on the project type, the review may reference the International Building Code (IBC), International Residential Code (IRC), ASCE 7 for wind, snow, seismic, dead and live loads, ACI 318 for concrete, AISC 360 for steel, and NDS for wood framing.

Review Scope

A PE review may include checking foundation plans, framing layouts, beams, posts, connections, lateral design, structural notes, and supporting calculations. The goal is to confirm that the submitted package is complete, coordinated, and suitable for review by the local building department.

Permit And RFI Support

If the permitting authority issues comments or RFIs, the sealed package may need clarification or revisions. We can help coordinate responses, update drawings, revise calculations, and support the permit review process.
