Building Plan Review

Building Plan Review is a process to verify construction design documents conform to requirements of International Codes such as the IBC, IRC or the IEBC. Sometimes called a “plan check” or “plan review”, the process starts with Building Services and submitting a plan review application, the plans, and filing fee. A plan review fee estimator is provided in the right resources. Simply input the Commercial Total Valuation, and the estimator will provide you a plan review fee estimate.

Depending on the building type and occupancy, a plan review will include review of ADA-accessibility, architectural, life safety and structural. Our plans examiners are a team of professionals that will identify potential code deficiencies to assure construction documents are appropriate for permitting. Additionally, plans are routed to other city agencies by the plans examiner team.
