Structural Permit Review Support For Colorado Projects
Structural permit drawings should be reviewed for accuracy, code compliance, and completeness before submission. This is especially important when the drawings and calculations are already prepared but need review by a licensed Colorado Professional Engineer.
Code-Based Review
Colorado projects must follow the building codes adopted by the local city or county. Depending on the project type, the review may reference the IRC for residential work, IBC for commercial or larger projects, ASCE 7 for wind, snow, seismic, dead, and live loads, ACI 318 for concrete, AISC 360 for steel, NDS for wood framing, and TMS 402/602 for masonry.
Drawing And Calculation Review
A structural permit review may include checking foundation plans, roof framing, floor framing, beams, posts, columns, shear walls, braced wall lines, anchorage, connection details, and overall load path. Supporting calculations are reviewed to confirm that the assumptions match the drawings.
Permit Comments And Revisions
If the building department issues review comments or RFIs, the structural package may need clarification or updates. This can include revised details, added calculations, corrected notes, updated sheets, or additional documentation for permit approval.
