Ensure code compliance by incorporating local building codes, zoning regulations, and accessibility standards into your drawings. Assist with zoning analyses and DOB submissions , revising drawings as needed in response to agency feedback. Conduct quality control checks before delivery, ensuring dimensions, annotations, and cross-references are accurate and complete.
